Hydrologic Modeling Postdoctoral Scholar (Energy Geosciences)

The  <https://eesa.lbl.gov/our-divisions/energy-geosciences/> Energy
Geosciences Division at  <http://www.lbl.gov/> Lawrence Berkeley National
Laboratory welcomes applicants for a Hydrologic Modeling Postdoctoral
Scholar position.  You will conduct research as part of an interdisciplinary
team of scientists from LBNL, LLNL, and five University of California
campuses on a new three-year project focused on California water resources
in a changing climate.  The primary role of the Postdoctoral Scholar will be
to construct and utilize three-dimensional watershed models of select basins
across the state that vary in climatic, geologic, and socio-economic
settings. The developed model will be used to provide information to
optimize water storage, quality, and groundwater sustainability as
precipitation varies, temperatures warm, and population grows.  The
successful candidate will have experience developing and running hydrologic
simulations and a working knowledge of high performance computing
environments. 

 

What You Will Do:

.        Obtain and analyze hydrologic datasets such as historical
water-use, meteorological forcing, etc.

.        Develop and apply high-resolution/high-fidelity integrated
hydrologic models.

.        Collaborate and engage with a diverse team of hydrologists with a
vast expertise in alpine environments, groundwater-surface water
interactions, contaminant transport, isotope hydrology, climatology,
geochemistry and reactive transport, remote sensing, reservoir management,
and water utility.

.        Generate and synthesize large datasets produced via high
performance computing.

.        Author peer-reviewed journal articles and technical reports.

 

What is Required: 

.        Ph.D. in hydrology, civil, or environmental engineering.

.        Experience in numerical hydrologic models.

.        Experience in cluster and/or high performance computing
environments.

.        Experience working with and manipulating large datasets with
scripting languages such as C++, python, etc..

.        Ability to collaborate with a multidisciplinary team of scientists.

.        Ability to author peer-reviewed journal publications and technical
reports.

 

The posting shall remain open until the position is filled, however for full
consideration, please apply by close of business on May 16, 2018.

 

Notes:

.        This is a full time, 3 years, postdoctoral appointment with the
possibility of renewal based upon satisfactory job performance, continuing
availability of funds and ongoing operational needs. You must have less than
2 years paid postdoctoral experience. Salary for Postdoctoral positions
depends on years of experience post-degree.

.        Full-time, M-F, exempt (monthly paid) from overtime pay.

.        This position is represented by a union for collective bargaining
purposes.

.        Salary will be predetermined based on postdoctoral step rates.

.        This position may be subject to a background check. Any convictions
will be evaluated to determine if they directly relate to the
responsibilities and requirements of the position. Having a conviction
history will not automatically disqualify an applicant from being considered
for employment.

.        Work will be primarily performed at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab,
1 Cyclotron Road, Berkeley, CA.
