1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 From: Alicia Cruz-Uribe <alicia.cruzuribe@xxxxxxxxx> Dear Colleagues, The University of Maine invites applications for a Ph.D. student to work in the area of Rb-Sr geochronology by LA-ICP-MS/MS under the supervision of Dr. Alicia Cruz-Uribe <https://umaine.edu/earthclimate/people/alicia-cruz-uribe/>. This project will involve in situ Rb-Sr dating and other geochronology (i.e., U-Pb in titanite, zircon, monazite) to constrain the timing of mélange formation. The project will likely involve some fieldwork to collect transects across block and rind relationships in areas where Dr. Cruz-Uribe has worked previously (possibilities include the Franciscan Complex, CA, USA, and Syros Greece), and other locales of interest. Analytical work will be undertaken in the MAGIC Lab <https://umaine.edu/earthclimate/facilities/magiclaser/> (MicroAnalytical Geochemistry and Isotope Characterization Laboratory) and the electron beam facilities <https://umaine.edu/earthclimate/facilities/> in the School of Earth and Climate Sciences at the University of Maine. To inquire please email alicia.cruzuribe@xxxxxxxxx. Cheers, Cici 1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 ------------------------------
