    We welcome applications from all eligible scholars working in climate science including but NOT limited to: 

    • data informed climate forecasting
    • wildfire and climate extremes such as heat waves, droughts, and floods
    • climate impacts on local communities, economies, ecosystems, and human health, and 
    • the development of tools to mitigate, adapt, and manage climate impacts. 

     

    Postdoctoral scholars will identify 1-2 faculty sponsors at the University of Utah, these faculty members will provide mentoring and a collaborative environment to carry out the research project.
