Job description

We offer a 3-year postdoctoral position in mountain hydrology focusing on snowmelt water distribution in the critical zone under climate variability using modelling approaches applied to a large set of mountain catchments in different regions.

We are looking for a highly motivated candidate with a scientific interest in mountain hydrology that complements the existing scientific directions of our research group (mountain/snow hydrology, catchment storage, runoff extremes). The candidate should have an experience in hydrological modelling and programming skills.

The candidate will be a member of the Hydrology Research Group at the Department of Physical Geography and Geoecology, Charles University, Prague (https://natur.cuni.cz/en/geography/departments-and-work-places/department-of-physical-geography-and-geoecology/research/research-group-of-hydrology).
We are an active and diverse research group offering an interdisciplinary and international working environment, flexible working hours and a competitive salary. There is also a long-term perspective beyond the available three-year postdoctoral position.

Duration: 3 years, starting from April to July 2025
Application deadline: running, until the position is filled
