1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 From: "Nemesio M. Pérez RodrÃguez" <nperez@xxxxxxx> Call for Expressions of Interest for Postdoc and Tenure-track Researchers at the Canary Islands (Spain) The deadline to submit expressions of interest is 28 January 2022 !! Living and conducting research based in the Canary Islands, Spain, is awesome. This could be your opportunity to join us! The Instituto Volcanológico de Canarias (INVOLCAN) and the Environmental Research Division of the Instituto Tecnológico y de EnergÃas Renovables (ITER) seek Post-Doctoral and Tenure-track researchers to join their research program. We are looking for researchers interested in the following topics: - Volcano monitoring: to improve volcano monitoring programs using geophysical, geochemical, remote sensing and petrological methods. - Volcanic risk management: to strengthen scientific and technical expertise in defining and quantifying volcanic hazard and risks, as well as educational programs to reduce volcanic risk. - Groundwater resources in volcanic terrains: to advance knowledge of oceanic volcanic island aquifer systems with the aim of improving water management plans. - Exploration of geothermal resources: to enhance the capabilities for detection and evaluation of geothermal resources using geological, geochemical, geophysical and remote sensing methods. - Geoheritage, geodiversity and geotourism resources: to promote research into geotourism in volcanic territories to raise public awareness of geoheritage and geodiversity and to promote its geoconservation. - Air quality and environmental pollution: to advance analytical methods and evaluation parameters for the emission of atmospheric pollutants from natural and anthropogenic sources, as well as general air quality. - Food traceability: to use applied isotope geochemistry to strengthen scientific and technical expertise to protect producers and consumers from fraud, and to contribute to the development of rigid controls on the authenticity and geographical origin of products. - Data processing and modeling: to develop innovative data processing procedures, including inverse methods and application of numerical modeling to better understand geoscientific phenomena. - Mineralogy of the atmosphere: using deep time and modern records of atmospheric mineral dust to better understand the role of minerals, especially as efficient nucleators of ice in mixed-phase cloud, on weather and climate. We seek engaging researchers who will enjoy our support for their application to the Juan de la Cierva Post-Doc and the prestigious Ramón y Cajal Research Contracts from the Spanish Government. Spanish language skills are not mandatory. The selected candidates will submit a research proposal jointly with INVOLCAN or ITER to the Spanish R&D Programme. For those interested in applying for the Juan de la Cierva Post-Doc, which are aimed at early career researchers, your Expression of Interest should include: - a brief outline (max 1 page) of a project that answers a research question within the themes of volcanology and volcano monitoring, geothermal exploration, societal resilience, geotourism, groundwater, environmental management,.... - your C.V. that reflects established or translatable skills that meet the project requirements. - confirmation of your eligibility (Ph.D. degree obtained during the period 2020-2021) - you can be any citizenship The characteristics of the Juan de la Cierva Post-Doc are: . - To contract young researchers wishing to start their Post-Doctoral career - Contract duration: 2 years - Gross salary between 25000 â?¬/year and 29000 â?¬/year For those interested in in applying for the Ramón y Cajal Research Contracts, which are aimed at more established researchers, your Expression of Interest should include: - a brief overview (max 1 page) of your research interests and an outline how we can help you develop an innovative research program. - your C.V. that indicates how you will strengthen and/or complement the expertise of our research group, which is indicated here: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.iter.es/portfolio-items/publicaciones-en-revistas-del-sci/?lang=en&portfolioCats=153*2C155*2C160*2C149*2C167__;JSUlJQ!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!P_Np-b6QBd3KT_mOKt0AYC30orHsAkNyDqcYhQ5b9HzvMVk2o6nA2fgP7AKED0E$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.iter.es/portfolio-items/publicaciones-en-revistas-del-sci/?lang=en&portfolioCats=153*2C155*2C160*2C149*2C167__;JSUlJQ!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!NxS39sJbpluPYA5wB2d0qtcU9prniYPgeKHptuJzEOhJAWJQkGsgZJHZ9fiYB54$> - confirmation of your eligibility (Ph.D. obtained during the period 2011-2019) - you can be any citizenship The characteristics of the Ramón y Cajal Research Contracts are: - To contract and promote the incorporation of research staff - Contract duration (5 years total: 1st period 3 years + 2nd period 2 years) - Gross salary will be 33300 â?¬/year (1st period) and 39900 â?¬/year (2nd period) Inquiries can be directed toward Nemesio M.
