From CSDMS
PhD student sought for work on water resource modeling
UC Berkeley, California, United States
Apply before: 15 December 2022


I just learned that I will have funding for a Ph.D student in civil and environmental engineering starting in Fall of 2023 to work on understanding how alternative strategies (structural, regulatory, nature-based, demand-based) for managing salinity in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta under drought and sea-level rise will impact physical, ecological, and human tradeoffs. The right student for this position will have experience in hydrodynamic/water resources modeling and will be energized by the idea of working in a large, multi-disciplinary team and engaging in public outreach.


Please note that the application deadline for Berkeley's Civil and Environmental Engineering Ph.D program is December 15. Contact me (Dr. Laurel Larsen) with questions if you think this position could be a good fit for you, and see the department's webpage for application information: https://ce.berkeley.edu/grad/admissions

Colleagues, please help distribute this notice widely.

Thank you,

Laurel Larsen
