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. </br></br>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. </br></br>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.</br></br></br>'''BASIC QUALIFICATIONS (at time of application)'''<br></br>PhD (or equivalent international degree) or enrolled in a PhD degree program (or equivalent international degree) </br></br></br>'''ADDITIONAL QUALIFICATIONS (by start date)'''<br></br>* PhD (or equivalent international degree) </br>* The candidate should have no more than four years of post-degree research experience by start date</br></br></br>'''PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS (by start date)'''<br></br>* Demonstrated analytical, written and verbal communications skills and scientific excellence</br>* Excellent quantitative, computational, and programming skills (e.g., Fortran, MATLAB, Python)</br>* Ability to work independently and as part of a larger team</br>* Ability to think critically and innovatively </br>* Strong interest in interdisciplinary studies</br>* Domain knowledge in land surface modeling, remote sensing and data assimilation</br></br></br>'''APPOINTMENT'''<br></br>This position reports to Dr. Manuela Girotto.
