Description

Large-scale Modelling  assimilation of improved precipitation products (Howard Wheater, John Pomeroy, Alain Pietroniro; EC) A Research Associate is required to support the development of improved modelling and forecasting capability, including analysis of the strengths and limitations for large-scale hydrological modelling of various precipitation products that are currently available or in development. These include ground-based data, re-analysis data products, remote sensing data and high resolution atmospheric modelling. The successful applicant must have a PhD in hydrological and land surface systems modelling from an internationally-recognized university and at least 5 years relevant postdoctoral experience of large-scale hydrological modelling, including development of improved LSS algorithms, assimilation of active and passive remotely sensed precipitation data products, and real-time forecasting and water resource/climate change applications. He/she must have a proven track record of publications in international journals, excellent computational and programming skills (including FORTRAN, C and python scripting), and experience of PhD supervision and the management of small research teams. Salary will be commensurate with experience, in the target range of $60,000 - $85,000 CAD per year. This position is for up to 30 months, with possibility of renewal, and comes with a benefits package which includes extended health and vision care plan, dental plan, and life insurance.

We invite applications for the following post in modelling research. For this appointment, an ability to work in a team of researchers across multiple projects and disciplines is necessary.
