post-processing data analysis tools for the National Water Model (WRF-Hydro
Modelling System). This includes evaluating existing methodologies and developing
novel techniques for analyzing terrain data and hydrological model inputs and
outputs. The candidate will develop scripts and algorithms for automating the
pre- and post-processing algorithms and for improving the efficiency of
WRF-Hydro model setup, calibration and analysis. Candidate will be communicating research
results through publication in peer-reviewed journals, meeting proceedings, project
websites and presentations at scientific meetings, and develop technical
documentation and training material on the design and use of new data
processing tools for U.S. federal partners and the broader community. The
post-doc will be responsible for preparing quarterly and annual reports
summarizing progress on project objectives and writing journal articles
describing project results.</span></p>
