Associate/Full Professor in Integrated Modeling
of Hydroclimate Systems

University of California, Davis (UCD) and
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL)

The Department of Land, Air and Water Resources (LAWR) in the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, University of California, Davis, and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) invite outstanding scholars to submit an application for Associate Professor in Integrated Modeling of Hydroclimate Systems. The incumbent will also hold a Faculty (Sr) Scientist appointment at LBNL. This will be a 9-month academic year appointment supported equally by UCD and LBNL. The ideal candidate would link hydrologic and atmospheric process at regional to global scales toward a more unified science of hydroclimatology for better understanding interplay between climate change, hydrologic processes and ecological systems.

The candidate's research is expected to complement existing UC Davis and LBNL research activities in watershed sciences, integrated subsurface/surface hydrologic modeling, large-scale and climate dynamics, mesoscale modeling, and Earth system modeling, among others. Potential areas of research may include predicting and understanding changes in precipitation and the hydrologic cycle, climate trends, and collaborations to understand the propagation and cycling of water through individual watersheds in the California Sierra Nevada.

A PhD in hydrologic science, atmospheric science, or a closely related discipline is required. Applicants for this position will be required to teach a hydroclimate modeling course at the graduate level. Supervision of graduate students, student advising, curricular development, participation in outreach programs, and university service are expected.

For additional information about the position, and to submit application materials, please visit http://recruit.ucdavis.edu.

Please include: (1) curriculum vitae; (2) description of current and projected research; (3) summary of teaching interests and experience; and (4) up to three publications, all in PDF format.

In addition, applicants should provide the names and email addresses of three references. Open until filled, but all application materials, including letters of recommendation, must be received by May 10, 2013 to assure full consideration.
