*Seeking world-class postdoctoral fellows in volcano science*


*Clermont-Ferrand Centre for Volcano Research (ClerVolc), Clermont-Ferrand,
France*


The ClerVolc consortium consists of five laboratories of Clermont-Auvergne
University in Clermont-Ferrand, France (Laboratories of Earth Science
â??Magmas et Volcansâ??, Physics, Meteorology, Mathematics, Computer Science)
and an Earth Physics Observatory. Its objective is to carry out
multi-disciplinary research and development related to volcanism. The
research themes include eruption processes, products and hazards,
dispersion of tephra as plumes and flows, volcano monitoring, volcanic
edifices, magmatic volatiles, processes and timescales, magma production at
depth, and the origin of volcanism and the Early Earth.


The consortium is seeking candidates for up to three postdoctoral projects.
Proposals involving any aspects of volcanic science (geology, petrology,
high-P experimentation, geochemistry, mathematics, meteorology, physics,
computer science, data science) are of interest, as are developments of new
approaches for tackling fundamental questions. Interdisciplinary proposals
are not essential but are encouraged.


Applicants are invited to develop and propose their own projects in
association with one or more of the partner laboratories. They are advised
to familiarize themselves with the research and instrumental capabilities
of the different laboratories (listed under â??consortiumâ?? at
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://clervolc.uca.fr/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!NP49oJx9ZqmtgZx9F5dQLR8-dREH618SH3mHFOFrxOMHkX84ye9jp1H4to-lgKo$ 
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://clervolc.uca.fr/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!O-qLjIaYRb5j7li-8td9F1Bw0jRXXyt4u_D7t61tmwKP_hA5kuT_jQ98gGh0cjI$>),
then to contact the scientific director Prof. T. Druitt (tim.druitt@xxxxxx)
who will direct them towards appropriate personnel within the laboratories.


Proposals should be written in English and sent as a single pdf file by
email to the scientific director by 15 January 2022. They should consist of
(1) a CV and publication list (max 3 pages), (2) an account of past
research (max 3 pages), (3) pdfs of up to five publications, (4) the
research proposal (max 5 pages) with references and a consumables/field
budget attached as annexes, and (5) a letter of support from one or more
members of the ClerVolc partner laboratories. Candidates should also ask
two referees to send letters of recommendation by the deadline to the same
email address. Short-listed candidates will be interviewed online in
February 2022, with attributions announced immediately after. Contracts can
start between May and October according to the wishes of the applicant and
her/his collaborators.


Each fellowship is supported for 24 months and includes a research
allowance (based on the proposal but modified according to available
funds). The gross annual salary is â?¬ 30,700-32,800, depending on
experience, and includes a benefits package (health insurance plus
retirement and unemployment benefits). Candidates must have successfully
defended their PhD by the application deadline; they do not need to speak
French.


Please note that another postdoctoral call focused on natural disasters and
socio-economic vulnerability will be published by the IRC2D at
Clermont-Ferrand, and should not be confused with the present one.
