[ES_JOBS_NET] One Ph.D. and one Postdoc position in large-scale water table modelling at the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Illinois Chicago

[Kerry Callaghan]

I am seeking *one Ph.D. student* and *one postdoc* to join my lab in
the Department
of Earth and Environmental Sciences at the University of Illinois Chicago
<https://eaes.uic.edu/>(UIC) <https://eaes.uic.edu/>.

The focus of our work will be on the water table in the past, present, and
future. This will include understanding long-term change in the water
table; changes in water storage between different reservoirs (lakes,
groundwater, ice, and the ocean); and the interactions between landscape
morphology and water storage. You can learn more about my past and current
research here <https://kcallaghan.github.io/>.

There will be a focus on computer modelling and coding experience would be
an advantage. Possible projects will include regional or global studies
using the Water Table Model <https://github.com/KCallaghan/WTM> and/or
Fill-Spill-Merge <https://esurf.copernicus.org/articles/9/105/2021/> to
assess changing water storage. There may also be opportunities for some
field work. I would be happy to discuss potential projects in more detail,
including if you have ideas for your graduate/postdoc research.

The expected starting date for the Ph.D. would be Fall (August) 2023. The
starting date for the postdoc is flexible within the year 2023.

If you are interested in or have questions about either position, please
contact me (email: kerryc at ldeo.columbia.edu).
