This region encompasses one of the world’s greatest watersheds, but it is also a highly active tectonic zone where big and fatal landslides triggered by earthquakes or monsoon rains often block rivers and cause downstream outburst flooding. Additionally, these rivers receive meltwater from the glaciers, which are retreating rapidly and producing abundant meltwater and creating large proglacial and supraglacial lakes. The lakes are commonly bounded by steep topography and unstable ice-cored moraine. Lake containment failures can lead to the sudden discharge of huge volumes of water and debris, which could severely impact downstream infrastructure and cause long-term secondary environmental degradation. A successful candidate is expected to study and model the dynamics of these high mountain hazards.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-top:11.25pt'><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Work Sans",serif;color:black'>The appointment will be for 1 year, with continuation pending funding and progress.
