The student will be working primarily with thermal infrared remote sensing data of active volcanoes around the world with a specific focus on precursory thermal and gas evolution as well as archival image analysis and possible field-based data acquisition. The unique aspect of this project is the "Ph.D. in Residence" Program, which involves spending a period of eight months at three universities taking coursework and conducting research with the local team members of the NASA project. The universities involved in the program are: (1) the University of Alaska Fairbanks, (2) the University of Bristol, UK and (3) the Université Clermont Auvergne, France. Interested students are encouraged to apply before the end of the year for an August 2019 start (an earlier start date is possible). Information on the Department and the application process can be found on the Department's website: https://www.geology.pitt.edu/as well as the IVIS Lab's website: http://ivis.eps.pitt.edu/. Students with international experience, foreign language skills, remote sensing/image processing training and a background with computer coding are especially encouraged to apply. Specific questions can be directed to: Professor Michael Ramsey ( mramsey@xxxxxxxx). ============================================================== Volcano Listserv is a collaborative venture among Arizona State University (ASU), Portland State University (PSU), the Global Volcanism Program (GVP) of the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History, and the International Association for Volcanology and Chemistry of the Earth's Interior (IAVCEI).
