USGS Mendenhall Postdoc Opportunity in Volcano Remote Sensing

Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to
announce a post-doctoral opportunity through the USGS Mendenhall Research
Fellowship Program: Bridging the Gaps in Volcano Remote Sensing: Measuring, Monitoring, and Relating Surface Changes and Emissions
The focus of the position is to combine and jointly interpret multiple remote sensing data sets for a more holistic understanding of volcanic processes (e.g., ground deformation, gas and aerosol emissions, and thermal emissions), which may improve our ability to monitor and forecast eruptive episodes and hazards. The successful candidate will be encouraged to bring together investigations of these related processes using remote sensing observations that span the spectrum of ultraviolet, visible, near infrared, short wave infrared, thermal infrared, and radar, to understand the causal links between these related, but often independently observed and studied, volcanic processes.
The position will be based in Flagstaff, AZ, with opportunities to travel to other offices and Volcano Observatories to interact and collaborate with other co-advisors.
