Position Available: Postdoctoral Fellow in Reservoir Simulation for Hydroelectric Operations and Long-Term
Planning
Location: Manitoba
About:
The aim of this research is to re-regulate historical streamflow records within the Saskatchewan River Basin using reservoir simulation software, accounting for changes in upstream operations and water use. Water availability and drought risk for the basin under current and future climate will be explored under various water use scenarios.
This research is part of a larger Manitoba Hydro project titled Corporate Flow Record Improvement (CFRI). The outcomes from this project will provide key datasets, models, and information to update Manitoba Hydro’s assessment of the dependable flow case of 1940/41 and re-assess historical water supply variability and drought risk. Additional project background is provided at the end of this posting.
Primary duties include:
• Review existing water management models for the Saskatchewan River Basin and synthesize relevant inputs for RTC-Tools model development.
• Update consumptive use estimates for the Saskatchewan River Basin based on a review of current literature and collection and analysis of available data.
• Develop and calibrate an RTC-Tools model for the Saskatchewan River Basin based on current regulation and water use.
• Conduct a scenario analysis of historical and future climate-affected streamflows under present-use regulation.
• Supervise an undergraduate student throughout Summer 2026.
• Prepare a summary report and draft manuscript for publication.
• Assist with the development of research funding proposals, and perform other duties as assigned.
