Two three-year PhD assistantships in Hydrology/Geophysics are available at the University of Wyoming in Laramie. The students will combine hydrological and geophysical field observations with numerical modeling to study snowmelt-driven streamflow generation at the hillslope and small-watershed scales as part of a NSF-funded project titled “Subsurface structure and flow regime for Rocky Mountain hillslopes with different geologies”. The intended starting date is Sep. 2018 or Jan. 2019. Stipend for the 9-month academic year, additional summer stipend, tuition & fee reduction, and health insurance are provided. To apply, email statement of research interest, resume, GPA & GRE scores, and contact information for three references to tkellene@uwyo.edu and aparseki@uwyo.edu. For more information, contact Thijs Kelleners, Professor Soil Physics, Department of Ecosystem Science and Management at 307-766-4279, or Andrew Parsekian, Assistant Professor Hydrogeophysics, Department of Geology and Geophysics at the email address above.
