We are seeking applications for a postdoctoral researcher focused on predicting post-wildfire sedimentation risks to water resources, fish populations, and transportation infrastructure.


The successful candidate will: 1) take a leadership role in developing and implementing our post-wildfire sedimentation mathematical model, in close collaboration with Principal Investigators across our interdisciplinary research team (Patrick Belmont, Brendan Murphy, Larissa Yocom, Jon Czuba, Belize Lane, Scott David), as well as associated postdocs, students, and staff; 2) publish one to two lead-author papers related to our research group’s ongoing wildfire research program and contribute to additional co-authored publications with members of the research team; 3) be able to summarize and communicate results to a wide variety of stakeholders via web-based forums, stakeholder meetings, presentations, etc.; 4) provide mentoring for graduate and undergraduate students associated with the project. The position is intended to be for two years, with renewal for the second-year contingent on performance and funding.

Logan is a great place to live! U.S. News and World Report ranked Utah first for its strong economy, fiscal stability, education, and health care. Outstanding outdoor recreational opportunities abound throughout the state, including five national parks, 43 state parks and recreation areas, and 15 alpine ski resorts. Logan is a city of 54,000-plus people in a picturesque mountain valley 80 miles north of Salt Lake City. The Logan metro area claimed the top spot in the Milken Institute’s 2022 ranking for best-performing small cities in the nation.
