Two exciting PhD projects are available fo … Two exciting PhD projects are available for motivated and suitably qualified candidates to undertake original research in the hydrologic sciences, funded by the Australian Research Council and the Government of Victoria and in partnership with the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO).</br></br></br>You will work with a dynamic and industry-aligned team at Monash and the University of Melbourne to statistically explore long-term hydrological change during and after droughts (see presentation-1 and presentation-2 for background concepts). Your primary supervisor will be Dr Tim Peterson, and you will have a co-supervisor from the University of Melbourne. Your findings will inform the water industry and contribute to the international body of knowledge. Upon selection, applicants will then need to obtain Monash University scholarship funding through standard competitive scholarship selection processes (see here).</br></br></br>Successful applicants will receive a stipend of $29,000 p.a. tax-free plus an additional $6,000 p.a. tax-free top-up scholarship. PhD candidatures run for 3 years full time, and candidates are given considerable intellectual freedom and the opportunity to present findings at international conferences.</br></br></br>Project 1: Catchment resilience to droughts: Recently we've shown catchment streamflow does not always recover from droughts. However, we do not know if and when a catchment will recover. This exciting project aims to statistically quantify the thresholds that control recovery, and explore if and how management actions alter those thresholds and their influence on catchment resilience. It is anticipated this project will provide the first measures of hydrological resilience.</br></br>Projects 2: Causal mechanisms for catchment recovery from drought: Is unknown what type of forcing –meteorological, anthropogenic or otherwise – causes a shift in the rainfall-runoff relationship during droughts and drives recovery, or otherwise. This project will aim to identify the causal mechanisms of long-term hydrological change using state-of-the-art data-driven approaches.</br></br>See http://careers.pageuppeople.com/513/cw/en/job/611704/phd-opportunity-catchment-hydrology for details and the application process and Dr Tim Peterson (tim.peterson@monash.edu) for any questions.im.peterson@monash.edu) for any questions.
