Funded PhD Opportunity in Coastal Processes at USF

[Alejandra Rodriguez Enriquez]

Dear Coastal List Community,

I am seeking a PhD student to join the Department of Geosciences at the University of South Florida, St. Petersburg campus. The student will focus on investigating sea level changes (tides, waves, surges, etc.), extreme events, and the impacts of flooding on coastal communities.

The candidate will join a recently funded NASA-funded project focused on using coastal altimetry data, machine learning, and statistical methods to reconstruct and analyze storm surges and extreme water levels on a global scale.

A background in coastal-related processes and experience with coding, statistics, or numerical modeling is desirable. The thesis project will be conducted as part of the PhD in Geography, Environmental Science and Policy program (https://www.usf.edu/arts-sciences/departments/geosciences/graduate/phd-gep.aspx). Ideally, the selected candidate will apply to the program before the priority deadline of January 15th. This would allow for a Fall Semester start

Interested candidates should send their CV to me at a.enr...@ucf.edu. Please feel free to share this with potential candidates.

Thank you,

Alex Enriquez
