Postdoctoral Researcher in Seismic Signatures of Wave-Dune Transfer16240000 - LS-GEOLOGYMain Campus (Gainesville, FL)Open until filled
We are launching an interdisciplinary effort to quantify how ocean waves transmit energy into coastal dunes and how that energy interacts with sediment properties, vegetation, water-table dynamics, and tides.
