Background and objectives of the position The Mekong River Commission (MRC) is the intergovernmental organisation established under the 1995 Mekong Agreement, mandated to promote and coordinate the sustainable management and development of the Mekong River Basin's water and related resources. The MRC facilitates dialogue and cooperation among its Member Countries, promotes joint planning and data sharing, and supports compliance with basin procedures to ensure equitable and sustainable development across the basin. The Mekong River Basin is experiencing increasing pressures from land-use change, hydropower development, irrigation expansion, and climate variability. These drivers are altering sediment transport, nutrient dynamics, and salinity intrusion patterns, which in turn affect aquatic ecosystems, agricultural productivity, and the livelihoods of millions of people who depend on the river system. Addressing these challenges requires sound scientific evidence and improved analytical tools to assess basin-wide water quality and its response to natural and human-induced changes. To support decision-making, the MRC has developed and recently upgraded the MRC's Decision Support Framework (MRC-DSF), which integrates hydrological and hydrodynamic modelling and scenario-based simulations using the MIKE suite of models. While the upgraded DSF provides simulations of flows, reservoir operations, and flood and drought conditions, it currently does not include water quality or sediment processes, creating a gap in the assessment of sediment transport, nutrient dynamics, and salinity intrusion. In order to address this gap, the expert will focus on extending the MRC-DSF to include comprehensive water quality modelling, covering on sediment budgets, instream sediment, nutrient, and salinity intrusion.The expert will also conduct the sediment budget assessment based on this devlopped modules and  training and capacity building to MRC and member countries to ensure effective use, interpretation and sustainable application of water quality models. Through these efforts, the expert will strengthen scientific evidence for transboundary water management, scenario analysis, policy formulation, and implementation of the MRC Strategic Plan 2026–2030.   Expected outcomes   The expert is expected to deliver the following outcomes: ·     A harmonized and quality-assured basin-wide water quality (WQ) data, including sediment, nutrient, and salinity parameters, is established and maintained. ·     Water quality modelling and simulation tools for the Mekong River Basin (e.g., MIKE+, ECOLab, or equivalent) are calibrated, validated, and integrated with hydrological and hydrodynamic models. ·     Analytical reports and model-based assessments inform regional and national decision-making on sediment and nutrient management and salinity control. ·     Enhanced capacity for both MRCS and MC  national modelling and monitoring teams to operate and maintain WQ models. ·     Technical inputs provided to basin indicators, the State of Basin Report (SOBR) and Basin Development Strategy (BDS).   Deliverables and responsibilities Under the management direction of the Division Director and technical advice of the Chief Hydrologist, and in close collaboration with the other Modeller, the expert shall be responsible for delivering the indicative outputs and tasks.
