6. Postdoctoral Researcher, Moss Landing Marine Laboratories
Central Coast, CA
The Central Coast Wetlands Group (CCWG) at Moss Landing Marine
Laboratories (MLML) in partnership with The Nature Conservancy (TNC) is
offering a twelve-month Postdoctoral Scholar Award to research and
evaluate the placement and location of different nature-based water
quality improvement approaches in the lower Salinas watershed. Salinas
Valley growers have a strong incentive under the current Agricultural
Order to find solutions to their water quality impairments, particularly
nutrients. They are now being monitored at a field level for compliance
with drinking water standards and currently no single practice is
sufficient to enable compliance. Thus, an opportunity exists for broader
evaluation of the efficacy of cooperative management of nutrient runoff.
CCWG has implemented several projects demonstrating off-farm treatment
wetlands to address elevated nutrient loading associated with intensive
agriculture. CCWG and TNC seek a Postdoctoral Researcher to monitor and
assemble available water quality data, and then use fate and transport
modeling to inform the size, placement, and level of success of off-farm
water quality improvement projects. Results of nutrient transport
research and modeling will inform a larger collaborative effort to help
growers identify the best locations for natural solutions to improve
water quality and habitat within a ‘management neighborhood’ that,
together with on-farm improvements, will help the Regional Water Quality
Control Board recognize grower cooperatives using this approach to meet
the agency’s regulatory obligations.
See attached description for more information.
