Part-Time (OPS) Student Assistant -- Programming
Dr. Henry Hochmair, Professor of Geomatics in the School of Forest, Fisheries and Geomatics Sciences, is seeking a graduate student for a part-time programming position to contribute to a funded project focused on simulating the tunneling behavior of subterranean termites.

The project is set to be completed by April 2025 and will involve programming in Python or R.
Project Overview:
Previous laboratory studies with planar foraging arenas have provided valuable insights into tunnel construction mechanics and the factors influencing tunnel geometry. Using this empirical data (e.g., branching angles), the model will simulate termite tunneling patterns from a colony introduction point, interacting with bait stations and determining the first interception time.
Key Responsibilities:
• Model Development: Implement a stochastic lattice-based gas model to simulate termite tunneling behavior.
• Temporal Visualization: Develop a dynamic visualization to display the tunneling process over time within the lattice environment.
• Model Validation: Conduct statistical comparisons between the simulated tunnel network characteristics and those observed in earlier laboratory studies, including analysis of arena timelapse videos.
Requirements:
• Proficiency in Python or R.
• Strong problem-solving skills and an interest in ecological modeling.
• Ability to work independently and collaborate on an interdisciplinary project.
Additional Details:
• Hours: Flexible, part-time with negotiable weekly hours.
