USGS Mendenhall postdoc in volcano-tectonic interactions

*****************************************************************************************************
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to
announce a post-doctoral opportunity through the Mendenhall Research
Fellowship Program of the U.S. Geological Survey. The focus of the
postdoc is on volcano-tectonic interactions, and the position is based
in either Vancouver, Washington or Menlo Park, California. The postdoc
will explore the interplay between tectonism and volcanic activity in
the western United States -- home to a range of tectonic environments
(including the San Andreas Fault, Cascadia Subduction Zone, and Basin
and Range), volcano types (stratovolcanoes, monogenetic volcanic fields,
shield volcanoes, and calderas), and compositions (basalt to
rhyolite). We seek an early-career scientist with experience in
geophysics (especially deformation and/or seismology) and/or geology
(especially structural geology) and skills in modeling techniques that
can be applied to better understand the influences and feedback between
volcanic and tectonic activity.
Full details for the position are available at: http://geology.usgs.gov/postdoc/opps/2016/round16/16-6%20Poland.htm
If you have questions, please contact Michael Poland (mpoland@xxxxxxxx) for more information. Application deadline via the web site above is May 2, 2016.
Many thanks,
The Mendenhall Project 16-6 research team
(Mike Poland, Dan Dzurisin, Mike Lisowski, Rob McCaffrey, Emily Montgomery-Brown, Kyle Anderson, and Chuck Wicks)
