Come and work at UNSW in Sydney, Australia! We have a 2-year Research Associate position for a groundwater recharge modeller to join the Laureate Fellowship project ‘Caves and their stalagmites: linking climate to groundwater recharge’. The successful applicant will develop their research expertise through their contribution to a work package led by myself and Andreas Hartmann (TU Dresden) that will use groundwater recharge model simulations to investigate the climate processes that lead to relationships between climate and environmental change and groundwater recharge. The work involves integrating fire events into a global karst recharge model, investigating effects of wildfire on recharge volumes for the Black Summer fires, the last 100 yrs; and for future climates and environment change.

Trump's CBP has been stealing #water from New Mexico to build more of his Wall, without permission from the state. At least eight wells to pump #groundwater along the U.S.-Mexico border were drilled without state permits. https://www.wbur.org/hereandnow/2026/08/05/border-wall-water-new-mexico

As long as courts side with rich developers against responsible groundwater management, the risks of permanent, damaging overdraft of #groundwater will continue, and future generations will suffer. #water https://www.abc15.com/news/local-news/judge-sides-with-developers-challenging-arizona-groundwater-regulations

Where in Europe is tap water the most and least safe? Water purity varies across Europe, with Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg and the Czech Republic having some of the most polluted groundwater on the continent. Groundwater is one of the most critically endangered resources across the EU. #water #groundwater #Europehttps://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2026/05/08/where-in-europe-is-tap-water-the-most-and-least-safe

This is what oil corporations do: walk away and leave behind soil and groundwater contamination that taxpayers have to pay to clean up. https://www.propublica.org/article/new-mexico-oil-orphan-wells-cleanup #FossilFuel #Pollution #Water #Groundwater
