News Post-Doctoral position: Vegetation Transport in Irrigation Canals, Cemagref, Montpellier, France

This Post Doc researcher will be incorporated to a research group specialized in hydraulic modeling and management of irrigation canals and rivers. He/she will work in particular for a project dealing with the development of vegetation in canals, its management by hydraulic methods and its impact on water quality.
The researcher will develop experiments in real-scale canals to understand and quantify transport processes in irrigation canals, simulate these processes by computational fluid dynamics tools, and then develop one-dimensional models in order to simulate management strategies of irrigation networks.

Background : PhD in open-channel hydraulics/fluid mechanics
