6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6 From: Corentin Caudron <corentin.caudron@xxxxxxxxx> 6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6 A two-year postdoc position is available for application in the RANNIS (Icelandic Research Council) project IS-NOISE; Investigation of seismic velocity changes in Icelandic crust, using ambient noise. It is a three-year project that started early this year. The project is managed by the Icelandic Meteorological Office in ReykjavÃk and the Royal Observatory of Belgium and includes partners from Uppsala University, the Earth Science Institute of Iceland and others. The project aims at using correlation analysis of ambient noise to evaluate temporal changes of seismic velocities which may reflect changes in the crust. By analyzing small temporal changes in the coda of the cross-correlation functions, one can extract tiny seismic velocity changes in the medium, down to 0.01%. The project aims at studying temporal and spatial seismic velocity changes at 6 different volcanoes, 1 fault zone and 1 geothermal area. The 6 volcanoes are: Bárðarbunga, Grimsvötn, Katla, Hekla, Eyjafjallajökull and Ã?ræfajökull. The researcher will be responsible for studying the volcanoes including: 1. Characterizing the ambient noise (frequency content, coherence) for long time series (several years of data) in each volcanic area 1. Cross-correlation and seismic velocity measurements using state-of-the-art computer codes (e.g., MSNoise) 2. Analyzing the dv/v results to isolate volcano-related signals e.g. from seasonal effects (environmental & seasonal effects from rainfall, snow, temperature) and compare them with deformation (GNSS and InSAR) and seismic data The aim of this project is also to generalize the processing methods to apply them to any target in Iceland and evaluate its potential as a daily volcano monitoring tool in Iceland. The projects â??website can be found here: http://is-noise.earth. This 2-year full time position is open as from 1 March 2019, at the Met Office in Reykjavik, Iceland. Long stays at the Royal Observatory of Belgium are also possible (1 to 4 months per year). The postdoc will work under the supervision of KristÃn Jónsdóttir, Thomas Lecocq and Corentin Caudron. Requirements: â?¢ PhD in seismology or geophysics. â?¢ Research experience in the field, independent and original research. â?¢ Experience of working with large datasets in a Linux environment â?¢ Good cooperative and social skills. *The values of the Icelandic Meteorological Office are: Knowledge, Reliability, Forward* *seeking and Cooperation. The values are used as a frame of reference in the hiring process.* *Deadline for the application is 27 January 2019. The new Postdoc is expected to start* *no later than March 2019.* Applicants should attach a detailed CV were education and past work experience is outlined, especially past research experience as well as a PhD certificate and a list of publications and include at least one recommendation letter.
