The National Park Service is hiring a hydrology intern through the Scientists in Parks Program. The intern will work on developing products that characterize flood risk across the National Park Service as part of a science-focused collaborative project with the USGS (see position description below). This is a 1-year paid internship located in Fort Collins, CO or Logan, UT.
The advertisement will close after receiving 75 complete applications or at 11:59 p.m. EDT on Sunday, 16 June, whichever occurs first.
Visit here to learn more about the position and apply.
Please reach out to Christy Leonard (christy_leonard@nps.gov) or Derek Schook (derek_schook@nps.gov) with questions about this opportunity.
POSITION DESCRIPTION
There are over 230,000 miles of rivers and streams that intersect the National Park
Service (NPS) system. Park visitors gravitate to these waterways for their tranquility,
beauty, and recreational opportunities. However, with visitor demand comes a need
for infrastructure, such as campgrounds, boat ramps, picnic areas, and restroom facilities,
and an obligation to ensure visitor safety. NPS policy necessitates that any proposed
action in the river floodplain must evaluate flood hazards and associated risks to
protect human health and safety, reduce risk to investments, and ensure the ecological
functions of the river and floodplain are uncompromised. However, most flood-prone
areas in the NPS are unmapped, leaving a gap in our understanding of where flood hazards
exist and how park managers can mitigate the associated risk. To address this data
gap, the Park Service is collaborating with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to evaluate
the feasibility of using a variety of flood inundation mapping methods to determine
flood risk on remote NPS lands with limited data availability. The purpose of this
Scientist in the Park project is to compliment the USGS/NPS collaboration by developing
products that characterize flood risk across the NPS. The work will include: 1) manipulating
LiDAR derived high-resolution topography, 2) analyzing historic hydrologic data to
determine the magnitude and frequency of large floods, and 3) performing a suite of
geospatial analyses to determine the inundation extent for different flood magnitudes.
Additionally, the SIP will assist with other river-related technical assistance projects
across the NPS when opportunities arise.
