The successful candidate will design field projects to address important and interesting research challenges, lead field teams, and conduct analysis of the data to achieve new scientific understanding.  We encourage career development and recognition through conference attendance and presentations, peer-reviewed publications, and interaction with scientists from other locations.  Experience conducting field research and data analysis will be shown by journal publications and conference presentations.  The Dugway Meteorology Division has a long history of excellence in T&D, and the person selected for this job will apply boundary layer and T&D expertise to operational test design and research programs.  Experience in mesoscale numerical weather prediction or Large Eddy Simulation modeling is desired. If selected, you will be part of a team that travels to seven other Army test ranges to evaluate their operational capabilities and weather instrumentation, and to recommend improvements.  Dugway has a very large inventory of in situ and remote sensing meteorological equipment, much of which can be used for long or short term field studies.  Dugway Proving Ground includes a variety of topographical regimes, providing the opportunity to conduct a wide range of meteorological studies.  This is an exciting and challenging position for a well-qualified, career-minded scientist.  For more information and to apply, please go to the USAJobs web site (www.usajobs.gov), enter WTDJ10015366DRR in the key word section, and then click on the RESEARCH METEOROLOGIST link.
