**YOUR TASKS**
**Project Background**
LAT is used as the main reference surface for navigation in the North Sea. With national authorities being responsible for the determination of LAT reference surfaces, significant differences are observed near the marine borders countries. This is the result of the different tools and decision methodologies used in the process.
The Flemish agency for Maritime Services - Coastal Department is interested in the determination of an updated LAT reference surface for the Belgian part of the North Sea. In a first step, the project aims at developing an improved LAT-model for this zone. Together with the LAT surface, height transformation grids to (inter)national reference surfaces such as TAW/DNG, MSL,... are to be developed and validated. In a second step, based on simulations, recommendations have to be developed on the update cycle of the LAT-model. The final step of the research is aimed at investigating the coupling of the hydrodynamic model with the Belgian gravimetric geoid model.
**Task description**
**WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR**
- Knowledge of and interest in numerical simulation of coastal hydrodynamics (currents and waves) and numeric modelling is essential.
- Basic knowledge of hydrographic reference levels (LAT, MSL, ) and geodesy (geoid, gravimetry, ) is recommended.
- Prior experience in modelling, data analysis and related statistics using appropriate software tools (e.g., Matlab, Python (preferred)) is recommended.
**WHAT WE CAN OFFER YOU**
- A unique chance to contribute directly to the marine scientific research world and industry.
- Opportunity to collaborate with other research institutes in Belgium and The Netherlands.
- Contract of scientific staff, with a possible forecast of acquiring a PhD in the case of extra extension (to 3 or 4 years in total) if the research work appears to reach PhD level.
- Starting date for the position: as soon as possible (between 1st of April and 1st of June).
- Working place will be the 3D Data Acquisition Research Group at Ghent University (Krijgslaan 281, 9000 Gent), with regular visits to Ostend (Belgium) and Antwerp (Belgium).
- Your remuneration will be determined by salary scale WM1 to WM4 (if you hold a Master’s degree) or salary scale PD1 to PD4 (if you hold a doctorate). Click here for more information about our salary scales.
