************************************************************************************************
Postdoc in Volcano Seismology at the University of South Florida
From: Diana Roman <droman@xxxxxxxxxxx>
************************************************************************************************
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral fellowship in the Department of Geology at the University of South Florida, to study signals and mechanisms of aseismic magma ascent at Redoubt Volcano, Alaska, using a variety of seismological techniques including the analysis of shear-wave splitting and ambient noise. The postdoctoral fellow will also participate in the development of a new set of codes for efficient measurement and analysis of crustal stress fields in the vicinity of active or restless volcanoes. Candidates should have a background in volcano seismology, volcano geodesy, or earthquake seismology, and experience with signal processing/time series analysis, preferably in Matlab. Experience with Java and/or Fortran programming is a plus but not essential. The postdoctoral fellow will have primary responsibility for data analysis and interpretation, and will collaborate closely with colleagues at USF and the USGS Alaska Volcano Observatory.
The position is funded for a total of 16 months at a salary level of $47,000 per year. Applicants must be able to start work in June 2010, and must have completed a Ph.D. before beginning the position. Please apply by sending (by post or email) a cover letter briefly summarizing your research interests and fit for the position along with a CV, publication list, and contact information for three professional references. Review of applications will begin on December 1, 2009.
