[Jeremy Venditti]

Can you post this to your email list?

The River Dynamics Laboratory at Simon Fraser University is seeking a Research Manager and six Post-Docs to work on a project entitled “Landslide Impact on Flow Dynamics, Fish Migration and Genetics of Fraser River Salmon”.  Candidates will lead an effort to understand the impacts of the 2018 Big Bar Landslide on channel morphology, flow dynamics, fish migration, and the genetics of Fraser River Salmon.  The landslide blocked the Fraser River to salmon passage, devastating salmon runs to the Northern Basin.  The project is led by a large group of multi-disciplinary investigators from Simon Fraser University, University of Northern British Columbia, University of Victoria, Durham University, and University of Massachusetts-Amherst, working in collaboration with the Hakai Institute, Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Canada, Fraser Basin Council, and the Fraser Salmon Management Council.

The team of researchers, post-docs, technical staff and graduate students will work on i) The chronology of landslides in the Fraser Basin, ii) Linkages between bedrock canyon geometry and landslide susceptibility, iii) Flow dynamics in bedrock canyons, iv) Linkages between flow dynamics and fish migration, v) Fish migration and hydraulic barriers and vi) Genetic selection by hydraulic barriers.
