4 PhD Students are to be hired for contributing to the development and use of a A multi-scale, unstructured-mesh, ice-ocean model. We are building a numerical ice-ocean model using the finite element method to solve the governing equations on an adaptive unstructured grid. To know more about this, visit the project's web site, www.climate.be/SLIM, where the acronym SLIM stands for Secondgeneration Louvain-la-Neuve Ice-ocean Model.

Four PhD fellowships are available for conducting research related to:
1. the development of novel time-integration procedures, and their implementation on
massively parallel computers;
2. the coupling of SLIM's solid and liquid water components, and their application to iceocean
interactions in a complex-geometry region;
3. the improvement of SLIM's sediment dynamics module, and its application to a tropical
land-sea continuum;
4. the improvement of SLIM's wetting-drying algorithm and other shallow region functionalities, and their application to coral reef ecosystems, in particular the study of land-to-sea fluxes and physical aspects of connectivity.

Our group has access to excellent computing facilities

Applicants should have a background in applied mathematics, (geophysical or environmental) fluid mechanics, hydrology, (fluvial) hydraulics, oceanography, climatology or equivalent.

The open positions are expected to be filled by October 1, 2010.
The promoters of the project are E. Deleersnijder (co-ordinator), T. Fichefet, E. Hanert, V. Legat, J.-F. Remacle and S. Soares Frazão.
