Post Doctoral Research Scientist University of Wyoming The Program in Hydrology at the University of Wyoming is seeking a post- doctoral research scientist in hydrologic sciences / ecohydrology. The successful candidate will work on field and computational hydrological research within the Spatial Analysis of Watershed and Landscape Systems Group (www.uwyo.edu/sawls), a research cluster focused on integrative multi- scale research. We seek applicants who can function in an interdisciplinary environment and are interested in using field observations on plant/soil/atmosphere/water relations to inform the development of novel theory and computational modeling. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work as part of large interdisciplinary research initiatives and have access to state-of-the-art instrumentation and computational systems through the newly established Wyoming Center for Environmental Hydrology and Geophysics (www.uwyo.edu/epscor/wycehg), the CI-WATER project (www.uwyo.edu/ci-water) and the joint University of Wyoming/ NCAR supercomputer (www.uwyo.edu/nwsc).
Minimum qualifications include 1) an earned PhD at the time of hire in hydrology, watershed management or a closely related area; and 2) evidence of research productivity in the form of peer-reviewed journal publications. Preferred qualifications include 1) the capacity to work productively in collaborative and interdisciplinary teams; 2) the willingness and ability to communicate research findings to a wide range of audiences; and 3) demonstrated skills in field-based science and computational modeling. To apply, send a CV, statement of research interests, and contact information of three references to Scott Miller ([email protected]). Review of applications will begin on August 30, 2012, but applications will be accepted until all positions are filled. The University of Wyoming is dedicated to ensuring a safe and secure environment for our faculty, staff, students, and visitors.
