I'm looking for prospective Ph.D. students to join my research group at the University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric, and Earth Sciences, in the Department of Marine Geosciences in a fully funded 5-year Ph.D. program. My research broadly focuses on the interactions of climate, past climate change, and surface processes that shape Earth’s landscapes, using a mix of computational and observational tools. More specific possible research topics include:

​

• Remote sensing of the Everglades to study hydrologic and ecological response to remediation efforts

• Geophysical and climatic drivers of ice-age sea-level changes in the Caribbean region

• Sedimentary, tectonic, and sea-level evolution of passive margins and the continental shelf-slope break

​

I encourage any interested prospective students to reach out to me at sam.goldberg@earth.miami.edu to discuss potential research. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, but highest priority will be given to those received by December 1st. Students could start in January or September 2024.

 

​Located on scenic Virginia Key in Miami Florida, the Rosenstiel School is a leading research institution in earth and marine sciences. For more information about the Ph.D. program, visit the Department of Marine Geosciences webpage.
