The newest generation of hydrologic scientists play a critical role in defining, understanding, and solving humanity’s most pressing needs for a sustainable future, the well-being of our communities, and economic prosperity for all people. The Division of Hydrologic Sciences at the Desert Research Institute will award up to four Postdoctoral Fellowships supported by the Sulo and Aileen Maki Endowment through a competitive search process. We are seeking recent PhD’s (<=2 years) with demonstrated skills in applying quantitative and innovative approaches to addressing research problems driven by current challenges in hydrologic sciences and who can extend our research in new directions. This is a unique opportunity to work with DRI faculty on a project of your design in a flexible and supportive environment that will initiate a successful research career.
Recognizing the increasingly interdisciplinary nature of hydrologic sciences, we encourage applicants with outstanding research potential in water-related issues including, but not limited to:
- Water supply and resource forecasting incorporating coupled hydrologic-climate modeling
- AI, Machine Learning and Statistical Learning applied to improve understanding of the changing intensity and localization of hydrologic processes
- Hydro-economics and market-based approaches to the sustainability of common pool resources
- Environmental system optimization with focus on Urban Hydrology
- Hydrologic impacts of drought on natural and/or built environments
- Ground water – surface water – atmospheric interactions
