DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory - White Sands Missile Range - Postdoctoral Researchers at Rochester Institute of Technology AEOP Internships and Fellowships in White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico

Job Description:

Army Educational Outreach Program (AEOP) Internships and Fellowships provide paid civilian research opportunities for high school through postdoctoral individuals in U.S. Army Research Labs and Centers. Projects focus on the most current and cutting-edge priorities of the Department of Defense.

Recruiting postdoctoral researchers at the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Army Research Laboratory, known as DEVCOM ARL, the Armys research laboratory. Nested strategically within DEVCOM and the Army Futures Command, ARLs mission is to Operationalize Science. A hallmark of ARLs mission is collaborative partnerships to broaden Army access to expert talent and accelerate transitions of science-enabled capabilities. This site operates on a rolling application basis. Due to the high volume of applications, not all candidates may receive an immediate response. However, all applications will remain under consideration for future opportunities as they become available. Applicants must be 16 to apply.

Seeking Postdoctoral Fellows for the following projects:

Atmospheric Effects for Decision Advantage and Lethality Overmatch (WSMR001)

These efforts conducts Army-focused environmental security research across multiple temporal operating pictures, which feed a cross-echelon situational awareness for command and control decisions. This effort includes research on dynamics and changes in the atmospheric boundary layer in complex Multi-Domain Operations (MDO) environments and conditions (complex terrain/ dense urban and unique or dynamic regions of atmospheric change) with particular emphasis on the atmospheric surface layer and the land- surface processes, which inform Windows of X (mitigating vulnerability, exploiting opportunity, etc) in planning and operations. The effort will also investigate atmospheric effects on multi-modal sensing for detection, localization and tracking to improve accuracy of aided target recognition for air and ground defense in an increasingly uncertain and rapidly changing threat environment. This effort applies foundational research in atmospheric impacts and effects on Department of Defense systems and operations. Research will employ experimental data collection and model development of Atmospheric Boundary Layer conditions and influence key systems in achieving freedom of maneuver and lethality overmatch. Focusing research on atmospheric characterization and modeling of complex atmospheric conditions in challenging terrain provides prediction and correction information for developing Army systems for kinetic and non-kinetic collaborative protection, protection and exploitation of electromagnetic spectrum for tactical advantage (to include renewable energy), detection and characterization of threat and toxic industrial aerosol, resilient and robust sensing and counter-sensing for UAVs, and models for UAV flight dynamics and high-speed flight systems operating under extreme conditions.
