PhD opportunity at Newcastle University in the School of Engineering on bridging physics and Earth Observation for real-time flood mapping . This project focuses on geospatial foundation models , remote sensing , machine learning , hydrology , and civil engineering to build a national-scale flood prediction system for the UK. The research aims to combine satellite-derived embeddings (including Sentinel data and potentially higher-resolution imagery) with hydrodynamic simulations to improve flood...

ENGEES is advertising a funded PhD position in France on the multifunctional assessment of porous pavements with reservoir structures , combining field monitoring , laboratory column experiments , and numerical modelling to better understand hydrological performance and contaminant fate in urban road infrastructure. The project addresses an important environmental challenge: urbanization increases soil sealing, stormwater runoff, and vulnerability to extreme events such as floods and heat waves....

Princeton University’s High Meadows Environmental Institute is recruiting multiple Postdoctoral Research Associates in integrated hydrologic-hydraulic modeling . The position is with Prof. Gabriele Villarini and focuses on building an integrated framework to better represent interactions among physical processes, ecological systems, disturbances such as fire, and human and socio-economic systems. This opportunity is especially relevant for researchers in hydrology , hydraulic modeling , flood-in...
