The Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln has two Ph.D. openings in the area of hydrology and water resources. The first project will focus on developing operational platforms for flood and drought forecasting using a wide variety of datasets, including satellite-based observations, model-based estimates, and in-situ measurements. It is important that the candidate has excellent programming skills, preferably in MATLAB and/or Python, and a strong background in mathematics and statistics. The second position will focus on modeling human-water interactions at different time-scales over different regions. One of the goals in this project would be to develop a socio-hydrology modeling framework that can help us improve water resources management practices. The candidates will get ample opportunities to explore new ideas within the scope of the projects.
The Department of Civil Engineering has a rich history of over 140 years. Students graduating from the department will get a degree in Civil Engineering. To learn more about the graduate admission process in the engineering program, please visit https://engineering.unl.edu/graduate-programs/admissions/.

The two post-doctoral scholars will work independently and collaboratively on the following two topics:
# Develop a CONUS scale dataset of effective hydraulic properties (e.g., hydraulic conductivity) of the subsurface using Machine Learning approaches. Contact: Dr. Pin Shuai (pin.shuai@usu.edu), Utah State University, Logan, UT (Work onsite with potential to become hybrid).
# Implement an existing groundwater module in selected land surface and hydrologic models (e.g., Noah-MP, CFE, etc.) and test their performance in predicting low flows. Contact: Dr. Mukesh Kumar (mkumar4@eng.ua.edu), The University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, AL (Work onsite with potential to become hybrid).
'''Qualifications:'''
* PhD degree in Earth Science (such as hydrology, hydrogeology, geoscience, and environmental science) or other related engineering field (e.g., Civil and Environmental Engineering) at the time the program begins.
* Knowledge of fundamental hydrological processes in the subsurface.
* Expertise in Big Data, machine learning, and/or hydrologic modeling.
* Strong programming skills (e.g., Python and R).
* Strong written and verbal communication skills.
* U.S. work eligibility is required; non-U.S. scholars must have or be able to obtain a visa.
'''To Apply:'''<br>

The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the Penn State University has a fixed-term (30 months) postdoc research associate opening starting in the fall of 2020 or spring 2021. This position is funded through a project to research on the selection and use of flow resistance values in two-dimensional hydraulic models such as SRH-2D and HEC-RAS 2D. Two-dimensional models are increasingly popular in practice. However, there are widespread misunderstanding and misuse of the flow resistance parameters (i.e., Manning’s n) in these models. The product of this project will be used as a guidance for practitioners.
Job responsibility: Under the guidance of the PI and collaborators from industry, the major responsibility of the research associate is to carry out the research tasks in the project, which include literature survey, data collection and model building, result analysis and synthesis, report and guideline drafting.
Requirements and qualifications: Applicants should have a Ph.D. in civil engineering or related fields with a focus on hydraulics, environmental fluid mechanics, or water resources in general. The applicant must have prior experience with computational modeling, in particular the understanding of flow resistance and its quantification (e.g., with Manning’s n or Chezy coefficient). Experience with SRH-2D, HEC-RAS 2D, or any other hydraulics model is welcome.
To be considered for this position or if you need more information, please contact Dr. Xiaofeng Liu (xzl123@psu.edu). Dr. Liu’s research group webpage: http://water.engr.psu.edu/liu/. Due to the current hiring restriction at Penn State due to COVID-19, please send a copy of CV and cover letter to Dr. Liu for initial consideration. Formal hiring process will resume once the situation gets better. +
The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University is seeking a postdoctoral scholar specializing in glacier modeling. The project will collaborate with the National Park Service Inventory and Monitoring Program to integrate state-of-the-art remote sensing data to calibrate and validate a glacier evolution model to present a coherent picture of the evolution of glacier change in the Alaskan National Parks from 2000-2100. The ideal candidate would also be interested in remote sensing of mountain glaciers and be willing to work as part of a larger, interdisciplinary team comprising engineers and environmental scientists who are working on developing various capabilities of the Python Glacier Evolution Model (PyGEM). Candidates with backgrounds in engineering, earth science, computer science, or related fields are preferred, but all qualified candidates are encouraged to apply.
The employee would be appointed by the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering under the supervision of Dr. David Rounce. The position is available for one year of funding at $55k/yr in addition to health and retirement benefits. There is potential for the project to be extended beyond one year, subject to progress and availability of funding.
To express interest in the position, please contact me (drounce@cmu.edu) with (a) complete curriculum vitae; (b) brief statement on research interests and potential avenues of research; and (c) names and contact details of three references.
