We seek a postdoctoral scientist to lead an effort to quantify submarine groundwater discharge to the world’s oceans. The postdoc will spearhead data analysis in GIS and numerical modeling to estimate direct groundwater inputs to the coast across the United States and world. The postdoc will be part of a growing computational hydrogeology team at The Ohio State University and will work closely with hydrologists at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The position is for 1 full year with the opportunity for renewal.

Requirements: Ph.D. in hydrology, hydrogeology, earth science, environmental engineering, or a closely related field. Basic familiarity with geographic information systems, geographic data analysis or geolocated data analysis, and Python programming for geographic analysis is essential. Expertise in coastal hydrogeology is strongly preferred. The successful candidate will demonstrate a strong publication record for his or her career stage.

To apply, please send a cover letter, c.v., and names of three references in a single pdf file to Audrey Sawyer (sawyer.143 AT osu.edu).
