Oregon–Hydrologist I (two 3-month positions) needed to conduct streamflow permanence surveys on private forest lands. Duties include learning streamflow duration survey methodology using FLOwPER application and high resolution GPS units, and working closely with primary investigators.
A postdoctoral research associate position is available in aquatic ecology. This position is part of University of Wyoming NSF EPSCoR grant titled “WyACT: Wyoming Anticipating Climate Transitions”. The successful applicant will use ecological and physical models to predict responses to climate change induced reductions in water availability. The postdoc will develop their own research activities related to lake modeling, food webs, or flow-ecology relationships in the Upper Snake River, Green River, or Wind River watersheds, Wyoming.
The Idaho State Department of Agriculture is hiring Survey Technicians for the Aquatic Invasive Species program. Working out of Post Falls, you will have the opportunity to explore some of the most scenic waterways in the continental United States, all while doing critical work to help us protect these special places and building your resume for a future career in natural resources. This is an ideal position for undergraduate students seeking to kick start their career or recent graduates looking to get their foot in the door.
As our Wetland Ecologist, you will have the opportunity to:

The Illinois Natural History Survey is seeking an Assistant Research Scientist with a broad background in large river ecology and experimental design to synthesize diverse existing data and identify important data gaps in space or topic area within the Upper Mississippi River (UMR) from Pool 14 to Pool 25 and develop potential approaches for addressing these data gaps. The scientist would work as part of the Long Term Resource Monitoring (LTRM) element of the Upper Mississippi River Restoration program. INHS is part of the Prairie Research Institute (PRI) at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign
The School of Natural Resource Sciences invites applications for two 12-month, tenure track faculty positions, both at the rank of Assistant Professor. We are seeking dynamic individuals with a strong interest in both teaching (65%) and research (35%) in any area of natural resource sciences. We especially encourage individuals with research emphases evaluating or restoring terrestrial or aquatic systems.
The U.S. EPA provides geospatial watershed data on 2.6 million stream segments and nearly 40,000 lakes through the StreamCat and LakeCat datasets, respectively. These data experience broad usage by numerous academic, federal, and state researchers and practitioners. Within EPA, they serve as a primary resource to conduct research on stream and lake ecosystems across the conterminous U.S. This research training opportunity will seek to improve the access, usability, and quality of StreamCat and LakeCat data to expand their use within and outside of the EPA. This opportunity, housed at the Pacific Ecological Systems Division (PESD) in Corvallis, OR, will examine approaches to incorporate the existing application programming interface (API) for StreamCat/LakeCat into an online ArcGIS web application(s) or other web-based applications.
The Department of Biology at the University of Minnesota–Duluth, in collaboration with the Great Lakes Toxicology and Ecology Division of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Duluth MN, has an opening for a postdoctoral research associate. This is a full-time, 12-month position, with an anticipated funding period of at least two years (pending annual review and funding availability). This opportunity is supported through the Cooperative Training Partnership program between the University of Minnesota (UMN) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
The Division of Ecological and Water Resources is seeking to hire a full-time permanent St. Louis River Project Manager. The St. Louis River Project Manager (Project Manager) will manage the development, design, implementation, and administration of St. Louis River Restoration Initiative (SLRRI) habitat restoration projects in close coordination with multiple partner organizations and agencies. The position will participate in acquiring and managing state, federal, and other grant awards as needed to complete projects. The position also represents Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (MNDNR) on multi-agency initiatives that currently exist within the St. Louis River watershed by developing, implementing, and managing habitat projects in the estuary and surrounding watershed.
