MSI partner opportunity:
Postdoc for SnowSmart Forestry with University of Arizona
Join the University of Arizona’s School of Natural Resources and Environment to lead cutting-edge work in the SnowSmart Forestry Project. They are seeking a postdoctoral scholar to drive hyper-resolution snow modeling that informs forest management strategies conserving snowpack — critical for water supply, forest health, and wildfire resilience.
You’ll collaborate with hydrologists, ecologists, foresters, and water managers across the Colorado River Basin. Using three years of snow data from Colorado’s Dolores and Mancos watersheds, you’ll train the SnowPALM model, develop thinning prescriptions on 40 acres of ponderosa pine, and monitor results with Snowtography and drone LiDAR.

While this is not an MSI position, this position will be working closely with our Water Program hydrologist, Dr. Jake Kurzweil.
