<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Post-Doctoral Fellowship: Current and Future Water Quality in Canadian Agriculture<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This position is in Saskatoon with the University of Saskatchewan, Environment and Climate Change Canada and Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As part of the AWF collaboration between the University of Saskatchewan, the University of Waterloo and Wilfred Laurier University, this position will work towards
<span style="font-size:12.0pt">the overall goal of determining how Canadian agriculture and food production systems can best respond to risk and uncertainty associated with current and future climatic and socioeconomic stressors</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt">.
The water quality component of the project will be accomplished through </span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">development of a process-based understanding of the individual and combined controls of climate and geomorphic conditions on nutrient
mobilization,</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black"> and e</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">valuation of impacts of land management practices on water quality. The knowledge gained will contribute to the development of nutrient transport
models designed for cold regions that will predict how runoff patterns and pathways may change in the future.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">The post-doctoral research will largely focus on the synthesis and modelling of existing historical data sets from Manitoba and Saskatchewan; however, new and ongoing field studies
will also be used to fill data gaps.<span style="color:black"> This work will improve our understanding of the role of climate [e.g. winter conditions (frequency, duration and magnitude of mid-winter thaws), frozen ground (depth and extent under variable antecedent
moisture conditions), and precipitation patterns (phase, mechanisms, duration, intensity, amount)] on runoff timing and pathways, their associated nutrient fluxes (concentrations, loads, speciation), and how response to climatic conditions are influenced by
soil geomorphic factors (texture, slope, location in watershed). It will involve development of statistical relationships between nutrient mobilization and climate-landscape metrics and identification of a hierarchy of controls on nutrient flushing processes.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span lang="EN" style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">Applicants must have a PhD in a relevant environmental science field and have a track record of research productivity, including peer-reviewed publications. Previous postdoctoral experience
is desirable, but not necessary. </span><span lang="EN-CA" style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Preference will be given to candidates with experience in both hydrology and water quality but those with expertise in either discipline will be considered.
Some knowledge of agricultural production is an asset. </span><span lang="EN" style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">An additional desired qualification is expertise in large dataset analysis and manipulation.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span lang="EN" style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">Applicants will be expected to have good communication skills and be fluent in English. They must be able to work independently, as well as within a multidisciplinary research team. They
will be expected to produce peer-reviewed journal publications and technical reports.
