[ES_JOBS_NET] Hydrologic Modeling and Climate Change Post-Doc at NCAR (Boulder, Colorado)

[Andy Wood]

   - *Location: *Boulder, CO.
   Type: Full time, exempt, two-year term.
   Application Deadline: This position will be posted until a sufficient
   number of applicants is received.

   *Where You Will Work:*

   The Climate and Global Dynamics Laboratory (CGD) is part of the National
   Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). The position is in the CGD
   Terrestrial Sciences Section (TSS; see https://www.cgd.ucar.edu/sections/
   )

   *What You Will Do:*

   The postdoctoral researcher will perform research focusing on advancing
   our ability to develop and implement hydrologic and land models that can
   reduce uncertainties in future climate change scenario projections for
   hydrology and water resources.  The work will involve developing new
   strategies and metrics for evaluating the climate sensitivity of hydrology
   and land models to support the identification of reliable and robust
   configurations (in terms of model parameterizations, parameters and
   structure) and quantifying their projection uncertainty.  It will focus on
   experiments using two process-oriented models primarily -- SUMMA and CTSM
   (Community Terrestrial Systems Model) -- for multiple domains from
   watershed to regional scales, and the outcomes are expected to benefit the
   community more generally.  The research will include model development as
   well as implementation and analysis, and running models in
   uncertainty-aware (ensemble) frameworks for century-scale time frames using
   high performance computing.  The researcher will also help in the
   development or processing of multi-variate observational datasets
include *in
   situ *and remotely sensed observations for model validation.  The
   position also includes strong interactions with US federal water management
   agencies.
