We are looking for a PhD student to start in May 2025 on a really cool project that is putting snow hydrology to work in a real world application. The student will spend summers working in a mountain ranch environment to help manage the irrigation system. This
summer work will help supplement the student salary above the regular stipend. See below for further details.</div>

The Mountain Hydrology Research group & Irrigation Science & Management Center at the University of Wyoming are looking for a Ph.D. student to start in May of 2025. The successful applicant will become a research assistant (RA) on the topic of improving streamflow
forecasting for an active irrigation system. The research will build on understanding of local snow accumulation and melt to design the requirements for a monitoring network to improve streamflow forecasting both seasonally and in real-time. This network could
include rain gages, soil moisture sensors, snow pillows, radiometers, and other suitable equipment. The student is expected to administer the irrigation system from May- July to ensure correct delivery of water to appropriators. This project includes components
that welcome applicants from a variety of scientific backgrounds including, but not limited to hydrology, agriculture, snow science, remote sensing, geophysics, and analysis of large datasets. Skills in R, Matlab, or Python, and experience with GIS are highly
desirable.</div>
