Essential Duties:
The postdoc will work on distributed ecohydrologic modeling at various spatial scales in the greater Yellowstone region. The work will primarily focus on modeling of water resources (e.g., streamflow, evapotranspiration) at small watershed to regional scales for current conditions and future climate scenarios. The appointment can also include field data collection in the region (e.g., streamflow, snow, soil moisture, and evapotranspiration). Assessment of groundwater resources is of great interest and, depending on the chosen model, could involve the coupling of a surface water model with a groundwater model such as MODFLOW. The postdoc is further expected to collaborate with other researchers in the project, such as atmospheric scientists for downscaled climate change scenarios, terrestrial and aquatic ecologists, but also economists and social scientists for coproduction work that is part of the project. The postdoc is further expected to help mentor graduate students working on related questions. Data collection and analysis of hydrologic data (streamflow, snow observations, eddy covariance data) will be overseen by the postdoc. The postdoc will work closely with Drs. Fabian Nippgen, Ginger Paige, David Williams, and Brent Ewers.
