Dear Colleagues, Utah State University’s Dear Colleagues,</br></br>Utah State University’s Department of Watershed Sciences seeks applications for a postdoctoral fellow to work on research related to post-wildfire sediment dynamics. We are looking for a talented scientist or engineer with strong coding and analytical skills, modeling experience in hydrology and sediment transport, spatial analysis, proficiency in GIS, Matlab and/or Python, and field experience. </br></br>The successful applicant will be based in Patrick Belmont's research group in the Department of Watershed Sciences at Utah State University and will work closely with PI’s Brendan Murphy, Larissa Yocom, and Jon Czuba (Virginia Tech), as well as multiple graduate students. </br></br>The research will focus on:</br>1) advancing an existing model (Murphy et al., 2019) to predict post-wildfire sediment dynamics at the watershed scale;</br>2) applying the model to evaluate sedimentation impacts to water reservoirs and aquatic habitat throughout the state of Utah under current forest conditions; and</br>3) adapting and implementing the model to study the effects of forest management practices on post-wildfire sedimentation risks.</br></br>The position is funded through the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Joint Fire Science Program (JFSP).</br></br>Qualifications:</br>The candidate should possess a PhD in Geosciences, Civil or Environmental Engineering, Watershed Sciences, Hydrology, Physical Geography, or a related discipline by the date of their appointment and have research experience in fluvial geomorphology.</br></br>Preference will be given to applicants with significant experience in modeling, strong coding, communication and writing skills, and teaching/advising experience. </br></br>Applying:</br>Review of applications will begin on December 9, 2019 and continue until the position is filled. The appointment will preferably begin on or before May 1, 2020 with an initial commitment of two years, contingent upon performance review and with the possibility of extension dependent upon availability of funding.</br></br>The position will provide a competitive salary and full benefits package. </br></br>All applications should be submitted online at: https://careers-usu.icims.com (Position #: 2143)</br></br>Along with the application, you will need to include:</br>1.
