PhD in Flood Prediction in Ungauged Basins and Climate-Hydrology Modelling University of Saskatchewan in Canada

PhD opportunity in Flood prediction in ungauged basins in a changing Earth at the University of Saskatchewan, Canada, in the Department of Civil, Geological, and Environmental Engineering and the Hydroclimate Extremes and Water Security Lab.

The project focuses on improving long-term flood prediction in ungauged basins under nonstationarity, including changes in climate, land use, and water systems. Research topics include flood frequency analysis, regional estimation, spatial modelling, and post-processing of climate and hydrological model simulations such as correction and downscaling.

This is a funded PhD position with an ideal start date of September 2026; a later start in January 2027 may also be considered.

Eligibility highlights include a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Civil Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Water Resources Engineering, or a closely related field. The post indicates strong academic preparation is expected, though the visible text is truncated before the full list of requirements.

The PhD will be supervised by Prof. Cuautémoc T. Vidrio-Sahagún. If you are interested in hydrology, flood risk, climate impacts, and modelling of water extremes, this opportunity may be a strong fit.
