 at the University of Virginia (UVA) is launching a new Global-to-Community Climate Research Collaborative (G2C) Fellowship Program. The fellowship program seeks to recruit nine postdoctoral research associates over the next five years and will grow UVA’s expertise
 in the research areas of climate dynamics, impacts, and action.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<b>regional hydroclimate changes</b>.  In this project, the research associates will use global and regional climate models, to characterize future changes in hydroclimate in the southeastern United States. The associates will also work with other researchers
 who have expertise in local-scale hydrological models to support realistic and equitable policy and practice within communities. The project will focus not only on changes in mean hydroclimate, but also changes in seasonality, variability, and extreme events
 and the implications for those changes at the community-scale level.  The associates will bridge the expertise between global-scale modelers, who focus on understanding the large-scale climate dynamics that contribute to uncertainty in future projections of
 the hydrological cycle, and local-scale modelers, who understand the local-scale factors necessary to incorporate into models to provide actionable information to community-scale decision makers.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

 in including scholars with backgrounds that are underrepresented in climate change research. The program encourages applications from researchers across historically underrepresented groups. This includes race, ethnicity and national origins, gender and gender
 identity, sexuality, class, culture, and religion. We aim to build a truly diverse and inclusive cohort of researchers where diverse perspectives are recognized, respected, and seen as a source of strength.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
