Magnetospheric Modeling Position at Univ of New Hampshire - due 21 June
The Space Science Center at the University of New Hampshire invites applications for a Research Scientist II position in the area of magnetospheric physics and space plasma modeling. Applicants should have at least 3 years experience in Space Physics or a closely related field, and must have a background in developing parallelized MPI-based fluid or plasma codes. Programming experience in a UNIX/Linux environment is required. A background in magnetospheric physics or a related plasma-physical discipline is desirable. Primary duties include the development of new global magnetospheric codes; benchmarking, testing, and developing these codes; and using the codes to study magnetospheric processes. This position is grant-funded, provides attractive benefits, funds for travel, and opportunity for professional development. The yearly salary for this position is in the range from $45,800 to $70,600 with the initial salary normally not to exceed $52,000.
