'''Postdoctoral Scholar in Coastal Hazards in the Pacific Northwest'''
The Department of Earth and Space Sciences at the University of Washington seeks to fill multiple postdoctoral positions that will address coastal hazards in a subduction zone setting. The postdoctoral scholars will join the Cascadia Coastlines and Peoples Hazards Research Hub (Cascadia CoPes Hub), which is focused on increasing coastal resiliency among communities in the US Pacific Northwest. We are seeking postdoctoral scholars to participate in this convergent research project that will address both chronic (climate-change-induced) and acute (earthquake-induced) coastal hazards along the Cascadia margin. The successful candidates will join a cohort of several postdocs spread across partner institutions who will work collaboratively on a wide range of project components from seismic hazards, to coastal inundation, to community planning and engagement.
The postdoctoral candidates will work on a variety of projects including:
* Quantify the timing and locations of landslides within or adjacent to coastal communities and use landscape evolution models to explore long-term geomorphic response to earthquakes.
* Develop probabilistic and time-dependent estimates of the vertical land movement over the next century for the Cascadia coastline; assess relative elevations of land and sea given interseismic and coseismic events, adjusted for glacial and water loading effects.
* Develop unified earthquake-tsunami source models and coupled HPC simulations for a range of Cascadia earthquake scenarios.
Candidates will be expected to conduct research related to the project goals, design research products that can be utilized by others in the project team as well as end-users, and lead the production of peer-reviewed publications. Some postdocs will also be actively engaged in disseminating products and new knowledge to community partners and the public.
The postdoctoral scholar positions are a full-time 1.00 FTE, 12-month, fixed term appointment. Reappointment for an additional year is possible, contingent on satisfactory research progress.

'''Postdoctoral or PhD Position in Sulfur Hydrobiogeochemical Modeling <br>
University of Minnesota-Twin Cities: Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences'''
I am seeking a postdoctoral researcher or PhD student for a DOE-funded, collaborative project examining the interactions of hydrologic flux and coupled iron-sulfur-carbon cycling in riparian wetlands. The importance of sulfur has often been overlooked in land-based biogeochemical cycling; we are finding that in dynamic hyporheic zone settings (where surface water and groundwater mix), sulfur can undergo "cryptic" cycling that drives carbon and iron – important elements for global cycles as well as for local contaminant fate and transport.
I am looking for a post-doc or PhD student to work on computer modeling aspects of the project - specifically implementing and further developing a reactive transport model (specifically PFLOTRAN, a computer code that simulates both transport with flow and geochemical reactions). The model will incorporate hydrological, geochemical, and microbial data recently collected at a field site in South Carolina (DOE’s Wetland Hydrobiogeochemistry Scientific Focus Area at the Savannah River Site). I am seeking candidates with computer programming skills (e.g., Matlab, Python, R, or similar), and ideally previous experience with reactive transport modeling (or hydrological or geochemical modeling).
The post-doc or PhD student would work as part of a collaborative team covering the areas of geochemistry, geomicrobiology, and hydrology/hydrogeology, including others at University of Minnesota and DOE scientists.
I am seeking to fill this position as soon as possible, with possible start dates as early as immediately and as late as September 2023 (postdocs may start immediately, PhD students may start Spring 2023, Summer 2023, or Fall 2023). Graduate applications to our department for Fall 2023 are due December 15 (https://cse.umn.edu/esci/graduate-program-admissions) (note that we do not require the GRE).

'''Postdoctoral research scientist in landslide and/or sediment hazards'''<br>
'''Employer:''' University of Michigan, Dept of Earth and Environmental Sciences
'''Location:''' Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA
'''Required education:''' PhD in geological sciences, environmental sciences, hydrology, civil engineering, or similar field.
'''Position description:''' The Center for Land Surface Hazards Catalyst team (geoclash.org) invites applications for a postdoctoral research position. Appointment start date is flexible between January 1, 2023, and March 31, 2023, and the appointment is for 1 year. Preference will be given to candidates with a PhD in geological sciences, environmental sciences, hydrology, civil engineering, or similar field. A successful candidate will have an emerging record of scholarly excellence and will be expected to work independently on research objectives outlined in a recent NSF award.
Exciting developments in geomorphology and geohazards are being supported by a new initiative at NSF focused on Solid Earth Geohazards. This opportunity provides fresh ground for innovative science that can have immediate impact on communities at risk of a broad range of land-surface hazards. The postdoc will integrate into an exciting team of researchers from several academic institutions and government agencies funded for a Center Catalyst award through this program. The Catalyst award supports several research-community based activities in preparation for a Center proposal in March 2023. The future Center will focus on addressing fundamental science challenges to understanding the land-surface hazard cascade. Innovation will require transdisciplinary research to predict how landsliding, debris flows, sediment transport and river flooding hazards intersect and are amplified by consecutive triggering events such as earthquakes, wildfire, and extreme storms.
The postdoc will lead two major efforts of the Catalyst project: (1) a research gap analysis and preparation of a community white paper, and (2) a pilot event-based scenario exercise with project partners. The postdoc will engage in a research-based gap analysis and evaluation of data relevant to center research themes, which is foundational to the preparation of the Center strategic plan. Community input to the gap analysis and resource planning will come from workshops, conference sessions, town hall meetings and an online scientific community discussion document. The postdoc will also envision and lead coordination of a pilot scenario exercise with project partners. The scenario exercise will explore the physical processes associated with a particular hazard chain, such as the cascading effects of wildfire and storms that follow earthquakes. We will assess how past event data can be used for model calibration, and how the probabilistic inputs from single hazard models can be integrated to inform the hazard cascade. The goal of the exercise is to identify and prioritize critical data gaps, assess model scalability, and to design research protocols for response to future disasters that incorporate ethical engagement and community input.
Applicants should have familiarity with scientific literature on land surface hazards. Priority will be given to applicants with experience in any one, or a combination of, the following topics: expert knowledge of landsliding processes, sediment transport, wildfire, extreme precipitation, or earthquakes; modeling of surface processes with geomorphic transport laws; statistical analysis of geospatial data for hazard assessment; modeling slope stability or sediment transport; field-based data collection for extreme events; predictive models of geomorphic hazards; and application or development of remote sensing data and processing for hazard applications.

'''Problem description''' Arguably the most valuable tool one can create from Big Data is a digital twin that supports policymakers in understanding and interacting with various systems, ranging from industrial products to natural systems. Distilling twins of large-scale systems that consist of many interacting subsystems is, however, a major challenge. For example, a digital twin of a river estuary needs to combine different interacting subsystems (e.g., atmosphere, soil, groundwater, waterways, barriers, and coastal waters) and its overall success depends on the ability to couple the subsystems with each other and data. Unfortunately, naively coupling the existing subsystems into a ‘monster twin’ is computationally infeasible. Probabilistic programming may offer a way to avoid this by reducing the coupled system to its essence.
'''Position description''' The postdoctoral researcher will investigate the use of probabilistic programming to couple digital twins and simulators. Probabilistic programming has witnessed significant success in modelling and inverting scientific simulators. Your project will investigate how those techniques can be applied to problems when multiple simulators (digital twins) are present.
'''Requirements''' We are looking for a candidate with one of the following profiles:
* Background in probabilistic artificial intelligence, and preferably probabilistic programming
* Background in one or multiple disciplines of geophysics in the broadest sense, e.g., hydrology, oceanography, and solid earth, with a strong and demonstrable experience with probabilistic methods and/or numerical modelling
We are looking for candidates that have a PhD in one of these areas or are going to obtain it soon.

* Appointment length: 1 year
* Start date: as soon as possible
* Salary: € 2.960,00 - € 4.670,00
* Application process: no fixed deadline, send an email to Sebastijan Dumancic (s.dumancic@tudelft.nl) with a CV and a short motivation

'''PROJECT DESCRIPTION'''<br>
N0MES CDT Theme C: Environmental Impact
Dredging is essential for maintaining navigable waterways, and dredged sediments offer a valuable resource for coastal restoration. The strategic use of these sediments in coastal protection and reshaping efforts can play a crucial role in advancing net-zero targets, particularly by reducing the need for transporting materials over long distances. However, dredged sediments are often disposed of offshore, which can lead to long-term sediment depletion along the coastline. Once deposited offshore, these sediments are challenging to resuspend and transport back inshore. This issue has prompted efforts to recycle dredged material. While this method can enhance habitat resilience, some studies suggest it is not optimal for dredging efficiency or coastal restoration efforts. This project will examine three case studies across the UK co-decided with the external partner to assess where dredged sediments could support coastal restoration efforts. Initially, we will identify existing coastal risks at each site. This will include the development of monitoring and digital twin components allowing for incorporating real-time data into modelling techniques. Subsequently, we will employ computer modelling, remote sensing, and machine learning techniques to predict future coastal risks under changing climate conditions. Finally, these tools will be used to test various sediment recycling methods, aiming to enhance both sediment budgets and the resilience of the overall coastal system. The project will also include a final life-cycle carbon budget analysis to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of these innovative approaches compared to traditional coastal protection strategies.

'''Project title:'''<br>Design and evaluation of adaptation strategies to climate and global change in Mediterranean basins with intensive use of water for irrigation (ADAPTAMED)
'''Summary:'''<br>
Climate and global change represents one of the greatest challenges today and can pose a major threat to the security of water supply in the coming decades, exacerbated by population growth and socio-economic development. ADAPTAMED aims at developing a framework to define efficient and robust climate-global change adaptation measures and pathways in water-stressed river basins with high water use for irrigated agriculture. Robustness indicators will be defined based on physical, economic, social an environmental criteria, confronted to water users in participatory processes including workshops and surveys. Unlike the classical "top-down" approach, where scenarios guide the analysis of adaptation, ADAPTAMED proposes the development of stress tests and decision scaling techniques for a range of change in climatic forcing. Confronting system performance under temperature and precipitation changes with specific socioeconomic and climate change scenarios can help identify whether the projected change is a threat, and when a tipping point is reached, requiring actions. To carry out this analysis, an improved characterization of climate change impacts on crop yield and irrigation needs and bioclimatic suitability will be developed by crafting an agronomic model specifically designed for citrus crops. A basin-scale analysis of fish habitat alteration under climate change using ecological modeling techniques will be also implemented, with adaptation through a new e-flow regime. Characterization of irrigation modernization approaches will be improved by confronting plot-scale impacts to the basin scale through field works combined with remote sensing techniques. Social and governance impacts caused by modernization will be determined, in order to define efficient modernization strategies with attention given to second generation modernization as an adaptation measure to future scenarios of greater water stress and climate change.

'''DESCRIPTION'''<br>
The Department of Environmental Science, Policy & Management at the University of California, Berkeley seeks a highly motivated Postdoctoral Scholar to conduct research in the field of remote sensing, and hydrological data assimilation. The candidate will be involved in a NASA sponsored project that aims at understanding Human-Driven Changes to the Hydrological Cycle via Multi-Variate Assimilation of Soil Moisture and Terrestrial Water Storage.
A remaining challenge of hydrological data assimilation is to operate within physically realistic models so that the true observational features (e.g., included human driven processes) are not excluded during data assimilation of satellite observations. The successful candidate will be responsible for 1) improving land surface model physics by explicitly introducing existing irrigation schemes; 2) applying multi-variate (soil-moisture and terrestrial water storage) data assimilation schemes; 3) analyzing the multi-variate assimilation results to understand changes in the hydrology caused by both anthropogenic and natural hydrologic processes.
The successful candidate will contribute to the interpretation of results and publication of peer-reviewed journal articles, and conference presentations. The incumbent will also exercise functional supervision over supporting graduate students. As part of the postdoctoral experience, the incumbent will receive mentoring for developing research proposals and participation in career development activities will be strongly encouraged. There will also be opportunities to interact with other UC Berkeley freshwater science labs.

'''SUMMARY:'''
'''ORISE Post-Doctoral Fellow:'''
'''Modeling hydrological outcomes of stream and valley floor Restoration.'''
The U.S. Forest Service’s Pacific Northwest Research Station is seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow (Post-Doc) with quantitative experience in hydrology – especially development of reach- to watershed-scale water budgets and groundwater flow modeling. The Post-Doc will be engaged in a highly collaborative multi-agency monitoring and analysis effort to determine the effects of watershed-scale restoration project in Meadow Creek, a tributary of the Grande Ronde River in NE Oregon. A critical focal question for this project is: Does restoration measurably augment late-summer stream flow? Answering this question will require use of groundwater flow models to simulate pre- and post-restoration flows and storage of shallow groundwater in the floodplains of the restored stream and development of a reach-scale water budget that accounts for all fluxes into, and out of, the reach. This post-doctoral fellowship will offer tremendous opportunities for collaborative engagement with a diverse group of researchers, managers, and stakeholders addressing critical land management issues in the inter-mountain western USA.
This is a full-time, one-year appointment, but could be extended for an additional year upon recommendation of USFS and is contingent on the availability of funds.

'''Seeking 1-2 PhD Students to Join an NSF-Funded Transdisciplinary Project
Advancing Hydrology × Artificial Intelligence × Wildfire Science'''
'''About the Research'''<br>
Land, fire, and water managers face a major challenge: understanding how low-intensity wildland fires, including prescribed fires and managed wildfires, influence the hydrologic balance of watersheds. These low-severity fires reduce postfire erosion and debris flows and help sustain water supplies — but scientific consensus on their watershed-scale impacts is lacking. This PhD research will leverage advanced AI methods to quantify changes in water quantity, timing, and quality following managed fires across diverse western US landscapes. By integrating extensive climate, streamflow, sediment, and watershed attributes into state-of-the-art deep learning models, students will disentangle complex drivers of hydrologic response, capture watershed memory over days to decades, and support fire management strategies.
'''Desired Candidate Qualifications'''
* Strong computational and programming skills (e.g., Python, ML frameworks, data processing)
* Solid grounding in hydrologic principles
* High level of work ethic, independence, and motivation
* Strong communication and professional collaboration skills
* Interest in interdisciplinary research and real-world applications
Experience with geospatial datasets, deep learning, cloud computing, and/or google earth engine is a plus.
'''The Opportunity'''<br>
* Join a large team of AI scientists, hydrologists, ecologists, social scientists and economists in a $4M project funded by the US National Science Foundation
* Fully-funded PhD positions in the “Computing PhD” program (data science or AI tracks) at Boise State: https://www.boisestate.edu/computing/academics/doctoral-program/
* Opportunity to teach AI courses in addition to conducting state-of-the-art research
* Publish in high-impact journals + engagement with fire and water management agencies
* Develop transferable skills for careers in academia, national labs, or applied science organizations
