The U.S. Geological Survey's Virginia Water Science Center in Richmond,<br>
Virginia has a position available for a strongly quantitative candidate<br>
with skills in water-quality data organization and analysis, scientific<br>
programming, and statistics. This candidate would join a team of<br>
water-quality data analysts and project managers to help address a wide<br>
variety of questions related to the flux of nutrients and sediment at<br>
multiple spatial and temporal scales. We expect that the ideal candidate<br>
would hold a Master's degree in environmental science or engineering with a<br>
focus in water resources; however we would consider exceptional candidates<br>
from other fields, and at other degree levels. Near-term tasks would<br>
include data organization and programming (in R), supporting the<br>
application of statistical models for estimating nutrient and sediment<br>
fluxes entering the Chesapeake Bay from its watershed. A fully successful<br>
incumbent would see evolving challenges and responsibilities that could<br>
include co-authoring and developing applied research projects complementing<br>
our group's current strengths in the areas of flux and trend modeling,<br>
urban hydrology, small watershed hydrology, time-series analysis, and<br>
analysis of high-frequency water-quality data. Interested candidates<br>
should e-mail their resume to Jeff Chanat (<a href="mailto:jchanat@usgs.gov" target="_blank">jchanat@usgs.gov</a>) for<br>
consideration.<br>
<br>
Sincerely,<br>
<br>
