The University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) Geophysical Institute is looking
for a software engineer to work as part of the Alaska Volcano Observatory
(AVO). This person will work with AVO staff to develop and implement
software to improve volcano monitoring and research. Tools developed will
analyze real-time data streams collected from instruments deployed on-site
and/or remotely viewing volcanoes distributed throughout the state of
Alaska. In this role, you will need to consult with AVO researchers and
staff to develop, test, and deploy software; troubleshoot operational
systems; and collaborate with the AVO IT staff to scope and manage a
variety of software development, database, and IT projects. We seek someone
with advanced programming and database administration skills who is
interested in working in a collaborative, dynamic environment.
The Alaska Volcano Observatory is a joint program of the United States
Geological Survey, the Geophysical Institute of the University of Alaska
Fairbanks, and the State of Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical
Surveys. AVO was formed in 1988, and uses federal, state and university
resources to monitor and study Alaska's hazardous volcanoes, predict and
record eruptive activity, and mitigate volcanic hazards to life and
property.

Dear colleagues,
We wish to drive your attention to our Research Topic “Volumes, Timescales,
and Frequency of Magmatic Processes in the Earth’s Lithosphere” in
Frontiers of Earth Sciences:
https://www.frontiersin.org/research-topics/7812/volumes-timescales-and-frequency-of-magmatic-processes-in-the-earths-lithosphere---part-ii
*Research Topic Description:*
*When, where and for how long magmas are stored within the Earth and how
they contribute to the crustal chemical, physical and thermal architecture
remain important challenges in geosciences. Magmatic bodies have been
detected with a wide range of geophysical approaches; however, the volumes,
mechanics, chemical signatures and evolution of these bodies remain poorly
constrained. Unravelling the architecture and dynamics of the Earth’s
lithosphere and answering such fundamental questions as:*
*(i) How do we detect magmatic bodies, and determine their volume and
geometry? (ii) how can we quantify chemical, mechanical and thermal
processes that operate within these magmas, (iii) How can we determine the
frequency of magma injections/pulses and melt extraction events? (iv) How
do we read the record preserved in minerals, glasses and melts, or in
volatile emissions to constrain the timescales and location of magmatic
processes?requires investigating the different geochemical, mechanical, and
thermal combinations controlled by magma transport, emplacement, storage,
and fluxes. Resolving these questions therefore needs cross-disciplinary
interactions and collaborations linking field geologists, geochemists,
petrologists, volcanologists, geophysicists, and numerical modelers, and we
hope all researchers in this area will consider contributing.*
We wish to highlight that four great contributions are already available:
https://www.frontiersin.org/research-topics/5801/volumes-timescales-and-frequency-of-magmatic-processes-in-the-earths-lithosphere
We invite you to contribute to the research themes of this Research Topic
in Frontiers in Earth Sciences by 31st October 2018.
If you have any question, please do not hesitate to contact us. We look
forward to generating a cross-disciplinary Research Topic!

candidates will be expected to develop and maintain innovative,
extramurally funded research programs that build on our current research
and education strengths in Climate Change, Ecosystems and Adaptation, Water
and the Environment, and in Geohazards, Volcanoes and Geodynamics. The
successful candidates will have a demonstrated commitment to teaching;
teaching duties will involve core undergraduate courses and graduate level
courses in the candidates’ specialties. Service to the discipline,
department and/or university is expected. Successful candidates must have a
Ph.D. degree at the time of appointment. The Department is committed to the
importance of a diverse faculty. Women and minorities are particularly
encouraged to apply. Interest in collaborative research with Department
faculty as well as other departments is highly desired.
