[ES_JOBS_NET] Post-Doctoral Research Associate in Water Resources Modeling

[Rajith Mukundan]

*General Description*

The New York City Department of Environmental Protection (NYCDEP) manages a
system of 19 interconnected reservoirs that supply drinking water to over 9
million consumers in New York City and surrounding areas. We seek to hire a
research scientist or research engineer who will contribute to our efforts
to develop, test and apply models of this water supply system. NYCDEP uses
a suite of climate, forest ecosystem, watershed, reservoir, and system
operations models to investigate the effects of climate change, floods and
droughts, land use change, watershed management, and reservoir operations
on the NYC water supply. We are seeking a talented scientist or engineer to
help us improve and enhance these models.

The position is currently open and is ready to be filled. The position is
funded through September 30, 2024. Work location will be NYCDEP office in
Kingston, NY.

Hiring will occur though the Institute for Sustainable Cities at Hunter
College, City University of New York (CUNY), which has a contract to
support NYCDEP’s modeling program.

*Qualifications*

Candidates with experience in any of the following areas of interest will
be considered: Simulation of carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus cycling in
the environment; kinetics of the fraction of organic carbon compounds that
are precursors to disinfection byproducts in freshwater systems;
application of watershed and water quality models for climate change impact
assessment; and application of machine learning or artificial neural
network approaches to water resources problems.

Candidates with an advanced degree (M.S. or Ph.D.) and an
interest/experience in the application of various environmental systems
models will be considered. Experience in GIS, statistical analysis, and
good writing skills is required.
