Tasks include 1) development of a process-based modeling framework (i.e., PARFLOW) of the California Sierra Nevada-Central Valley interface in which land-surface to GWS recharge mechanisms are explicitly represented; 2) quantify GWS recharge mechanisms and associated uncertainties by assimilating satellite observations of vertical land motion and terrestrial water storage. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size: medium; text-align: justify;"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size: medium; text-align: justify;"><b> </b></p><p style="margin-top: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-size: medium;"><b>DUTIES<o:p></o:p></b></p><p style="margin-top: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; font-size: medium;">The successful candidate should be passionate and committed, have strong analytical, statistical, and communication skills, possess excellent programming skills, and have a background in groundwater or land surface modeling.

The incumbent will also exercise functional supervision over supporting graduate students. As part of the postdoctoral experience, the incumbent will receive mentoring for developing research proposals and participation in career development activities will be strongly encouraged. <b><o:p></o:p></b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size: medium;"><o:p> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size: medium;"><b>BASIC QUALIFICATIONS <o:p></o:p></b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size: medium;"><span style="background: white;">PhD in earth science, hydrology, geography, or related field <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: red; background: white;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size: medium;"><b>PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS </b>(by start date)<o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="text-indent:-.25in;mso-pagination:
