Postdoctoral Fellowship in Physical Oceanography

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research fellow position in physical oceanography at the National Oceanography Centre Southampton.

This fellowship offers the opportunity to work on a prestigious project examining the dynamics of turbulent mixing over mid ocean ridges. The successful candidate will contribute to the analysis of novel measurements of small- and finescale processes collected over the Mid Atlantic Ridge in the subtropical North Atlantic.

Key responsibilities include collaboration with a multidisciplinary team, the interpretation of data from ocean microstructure gliders, and the production of high-quality research outputs. A PhD or equivalent in physical oceanography (or a related field) is required, along with experience in oceanographic observations and strong quantitative and communication skills.

The estimated salary for this position is £28,695 to £35,256 per annum. We offer a stimulating work environment, opportunities for professional growth, and collaboration with a talented group of researchers.
