UWashington Water Center Update
Pacific Northwest
Water Resource Community and UW Water Center Friends
and Supporters
We write to tell you the sad news that the UW Water Center will be closing on June 30, 2010, after 22 years in its various forms. This decision results from recent state budget cuts and changes in University of Washington program directions. During the last 18 months we sought to make a strong case for continuing the Water Center and establishing a permanent directorship, but unsuccessfully.
While sunsetting the Center, we have tried to preserve as many of the Center’s resources as possible: Read More...

Postdoc: stream temperature modeling
We anticipate hiring a
Post-Doc to study climate change impacts on
temperature of streams in the intermountain western
United States that provide critical habitat for
cold-water dependent fishes. The project will use
reach- and network-scale models in a mechanistic
study of the factors controlling stream temperature
response to climate change – especially the effects
of changing stream discharge and air temperature,
changes in channel morphology, hyporheic exchange,
and riparian shade following stream restoration, and
the longer-term potential influences of air
temperature on groundwater temperatures.
