◦ rainfall-runoff processes in natural or urban hydrologic systems
◦ stochastic processes / stochastic differential equations  / probabilistic methods
◦ risk-based decision-making/uncertainty analysis
◦ stormwater infrastructure design under uncertainty
◦ nonlinear dynamical systems
◦ physics-informed machine learning for hydrologic applications
◦ hydroclimatic hazards
◦ flood modeling 
◦ hydrogeomorphic modeling 
The start date for this position is negotiable - but a candidate can join our group as early as October this year. To apply, please email your CV and cover letter to Omar Wani. We will reach out to applicants with suitable profiles before the end of this month. 

[email: omarwani@nyu.edu, website: https://engineering.nyu.edu/faculty/omar-wani ]

This position is initially available for one year and may be renewed based on the availability of funds.

Please share this information with any potentially interested researchers within your network. Thank you!

Kind regards,
Omar

Dear colleagues,
We are seeking applications for a 2-year postdoctoral position focused on the application of numerical modeling to investigate interactions between permafrost change, groundwater flow, and subsurface solute transport in fractured and faulted hydrogeological settings. Model scenarios will be based on both archetypical settings as well as site-specific hydrogeological characterization.
Further details can be found in this Google Doc or at my X account (@DalHydro). Applications should be emailed to Dr. Barret Kurylyk (barret.kurylyk@dal.ca). Only applicants to be interviewed will be contacted. Review of applications will commence on September 1, 2024, and the anticipated start date is November 1, 2024 or soon afterward.  
 
Kind Regards, Barret Kurylyk
