<span style="font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#555555">We seek a dynamic and innovative postdoctoral scientist that works at the intersection of snow and forest hydrology in mountain systems.  Our project seeks to understand the potential
 role of landscape-scale forest thinning on the west shore of Lake Tahoe and Sagehen Creek watershed on snowpacks and streamflow dynamics.  The project combines innovative use of hydrological models, remote sensing, and field work to tackle critical management
 questions critical to the future of montane forests.  The candidate would be based primarily out of the <a href="https://naes.unr.edu/harpold/" target="_blank"><span style="color:#35B1E3">Nevada Mountain Ecohydrology Lab at the University of Nevada, Reno</span></a> (UNR). 
 The project is a collaboration between UNR, the Desert Research Institute, and the University of California, Santa Barbara, and will include travel to the <a href="http://tagueteamlab.org/"><span style="color:#35B1E3">Tague Lab at UCSB</span></a>.  A variety
 of physically-based models will be employed for investigations at different spatial and temporal scales, including snowpack energy budget (SnowPALM), hydrological (GSFLOW), and ecohydrological (RHESSys) models. Ideal candidates would combine expertise in modeling,
 data analysis, and field data collection.  Candidates with experience in snowpack energy budget modeling or RHESSys type ecohydrological modeling are preferred.  Demanding field work may be necessary. The project requires interacting and collaborating with
 a large team, including resource managers and scientists that will require excellent communication and interpersonal skills.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
