Mission:

Collaborate in the development of the technical and scientific tasks planned within the framework of the EBRO-CLIM project.

Functions to be developed:

- Perform time series analysis and interpretation: Analysis of high and low frequency time series of physical variables, such as currents, sea level, temperature, salinity and waves, obtained during field campaigns.
- Interpret the results to study physical processes such as turbulence, vertical stratification and dispersion.
- Analyze remote sensing data: Analysis of physical and environmental variables obtained through remote sensing techniques, including satellite observations and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
- Participate in field campaigns: Planning, preparation and execution of field campaigns planned within the framework of the project.
- Field campaigns and oceanographic instrumentation: planning, marine sampling techniques and environmental data acquisition.
- Programming and data analysis: automation and processing with MATLAB and Python.
- Remote sensing and UAV technology: use of drones and image processing applied to marine and coastal monitoring.
- Geographic Information Systems (GIS): cartography and spatial analysis with QGIS.

Specific Requirements

Knowledge:

- Physical and hydrodynamic oceanography.
- Water quality and pollutant dynamics.
- Spatial and oceanographic data analysis: processing, quality control, time series analysis,



applied cartography and interpretation of meteorological and environmental data.
- Coastal and estuarine processes, hydrodynamics, transport and dispersion, mixing and stratification of the water column, water quality and remote sensing applied to the marine and coastal environment.
- It will be assessed:
- Master's degree in Oceanography.

Professional Experience:

- In scientific and technical research activities in the field of marine, environmental, coastal sciences or related disciplines.
- In national and international research projects, field work, oceanographic campaigns, data acquisition and processing, application of experimental methodologies, analysis of results and preparation of technical reports and scientific publications.
- In interdisciplinary projects and in collaborations with national and international research teams, both in university environments and in research centers.
- Scientific communication and documentation: preparation of figures, technical reports, scientific documents and presentation of results in academic and technical environments.
- Experience in functions similar to those described will be valued, specifically in the development of research activities, both in the university and industrial environment.

Other requirements to consider:

- Participation in congresses, conferences and scientific meetings related to marine sciences, oceanography or the environment.
- Training or research stays in national or international centers
- Scientific publications, communications at conferences and other activities to disseminate results.
- Ability to work in a team, interdisciplinary collaboration and communication of scientific and technical results.
