From CSDMS
Postdoctoral Scholar in Environmental Streamflow Modeling, UC Berkeley
University of California, Berkeley, California, United States
Apply before: 19 December 2025


The department of Environmental Science, Policy,and Management at the University of California, Berkeley seeks applications for a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Grantham Lab (https://ourenvironment.berkeley.edu/people/ted-grantham), in the area of environmental streamflow modeling. We are inviting applications for a postdoctoral scholar to join a research team working to quantify and implement environmental flows in California rivers. The postdoc will lead the development of statewide hydrologic models to predict seasonal flow dynamics in California streams. Under the mentorship of the PI, the candidate will compile relevant datasets and develop a hydrologic modeling approach to predict expected, natural streamflow across California’s stream network, evaluate model uncertainty, and build reproducible and transparent modeling frameworks. The candidate will lead preparation of peer-reviewed manuscripts and have opportunities to explore independent lines of research inquiry. The candidate will interact extensively with project partners working on development of the California Environmental Flows Framework (https://ceff.ucdavis.edu/) and will be based at UC Berkeley in the Department of Environmental Science, Policy, and Management. The candidate will also have opportunities to collaborate with researchers at the Eric and Wendy Schmidt Center for Data Science and the Environment (https://dse.berkeley.edu/).
