POSITION DESCRIPTION
The Department of Environmental Sciences at the University of California
Riverside invites applicants for a full-time Assistant/Associate
Professor of Watershed Hydrogeochemistry. Exceptional candidates in all
areas of specialization in watershed-scale Hydrogeochemistry will be
considered, with preferences given to qualifications in one or more of
the following areas: tracer hydrology, stream and lake biogeochemistry,
isotope hydrology, reactive transport processes and modeling,
contaminant fate and transport, and water quality. The appointment will
consist of a split 0.5 FTE I&R (Instruction and Research) and 0.5 FTE OR
(Organized Research) appointment in the Agricultural Experiment Station
(https://cnas.ucr.edu/resources/agricultural-experiment-station).
The successful candidate will support the Department’s excellence in
hydrology and water resources both at the undergraduate- and
graduate-level. This hire will complement existing departmental and
campus-wide faculty working on areas related to water resources and
hydrogeochemistry (watershed processes, water movement and transport in
soils, surface water and groundwater quality, urban/agricultural
irrigation, and water management), water policy, climate change, and
aquatic ecology. The successful candidate will have a strong
track-record of peer-reviewed publications, proven record of, or
exceptional promise for, developing a vibrant externally funded research
program, and a portfolio of high-quality teaching at the undergraduate
and graduate levels.
The successful candidate is expected to integrate field-based research
with laboratory analyses and/or numerical modeling, and work at broad
spatial scales. Examples of research foci include but are not limited
to: 1) understanding catchment residence time and timescales of water
flow to predict catchment response to climate change and management, 2)
understanding and simulating multicomponent reactive transport
processes, 3) contaminant fate and transport in the surface and
subsurface hydrologic systems, 4) developing and advancing water quality
models, and/or 5) improving estuarine and river water quality. It is
desirable that the candidate’s research generate results that can be
used by policy makers to enhance the sustainability of water resources
within California. The successful candidate is encouraged to contribute
and/or provide leadership to the campus-wide multidisciplinary
initiative in water research (R’Water) through research and outreach
activities. The faculty member may assume responsibility for teaching
ENSC 140 (Limnology); and contribute to teaching ENSC 101 (Water
Resources), and/or graduate-level courses on advanced topics in
hydrogeochemistry and water quality.
Required qualifications for this position include:
A Ph.D. in Hydrologic Sciences, Water Resources, Water Resources
Engineering, Hydrogeochemistry, Environmental Science, Environmental
Engineering, or a related field is required.
Preferred qualifications for this position include:
Assistant level only: Demonstration of potential for securing
competitive funding at the federal level. Strong track record of
high-quality publications.
Associate/Full level only: Evidence of securing competitive extramural
funding at the federal level. Evidence of leading large research teams.
