Posting Description
POSTDOCTORAL ASSOCIATE, Civil and Environmental Engineering, based in the Howland Lab, to work on a project that will use a synergistic combination of large eddy simulation (LES), numerical weather predictions (NWP), and novel, fast-running engineering models to unlock innovations in wind farm wake modeling to accelerate the clean energy transition. Will join a collaborative group of Postdoctoral, PhD, SM, MEng, and undergraduate researchers in the Howland Lab and MIT Parsons Laboratory and be encouraged to participate in the MIT Energy Initiative (MITEI), the MIT Climate Project, and in the flagship MIT Climate Grand Challenge project “Preparing for a new world of weather and climate extremes,” a project which is jointly investigated by the Howland Lab; and avail of professional development opportunities, including collaborations on other research projects and mentorship of undergraduate and graduate students.
