<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I am seeking one postdoctoral researcher to work on a USGS-funded project to detect geomorphic changes in the lower Rio Grande Valley using airborne LiDAR.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">We will need someone to start relatively quickly, before or on August 9th. Application is therefore due on July 7th:

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The project is a collaboration between UTRGV, the University of Texas at Austin (Dr. Tim Goudge), and the USGS Center (Dr. Joel Sankey and David Dean) in Flagstaff, Arizona.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">See details in the attached PDF.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">P.S. The first two postdocs on this grant secured tenure-track positions (UNLV + Kennesaw State) and will also remain as collaborators to help ensure continuity of the project.
