Postdoctoral Scholar

Texas State University San Marcos

The Meadows Center for Water and the Environment at Texas State University invites applications for a Postdoctoral Scholar with experience in surface water modeling. The position involves work on projects in support of our mission to perform research that informs science-based solutions to pressing issues in water resources management. The post-doc will work in a multi- disciplinary team with expertise in numerical modeling, statistical methods, and water resources management. The post-doc will ideally complement the existing knowledge/expertise of the team. Current work underway involves improving understanding of how climate change will affect future surface and groundwater resources in Texas, however, some Meadow’s Center researchers are involved in other national and international collaborative research efforts and additional project opportunities may be available. The post-doc will also participate with the team in dissemination of research results and in the development of proposals for future research projects. Contract is one year with extension to two or more based on satisfactory performance.
