3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3 From: Helen Janiszewski <hajanisz@xxxxxxxxxx> *Assistant Professor in Geophysics (Tenure Track)* The Department of Earth Sciences in the School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology (SOEST), University of Hawaiâ??i at MÄ?noa seeks to fill a faculty position at the level of Assistant Professor in the area of geophysics, with a particular emphasis on geophysical research broadly relevant to hazards, such as volcanic, earthquake, and landslide processes, in either marine or terrestrial settings. The candidate will build on existing departmental expertise in physical and geochemical volcanology, seismic imaging, and geodynamic modeling. We seek a talented scientist eager to leverage our unique Pacific Island location to conduct studies of both regional and broader earth science topics using observational and computational approaches. The successful applicant is expected to establish an externally funded and internationally recognized research program, enthusiastically contribute to graduate and undergraduate advising and teaching, and carry out professional service activities. Willingness to engage with faculty, staff, and students in a collaborative fashion that supports Indigenous values and perspectives, as well as diversity and inclusivity, is essential. We are interested in an individual who will use geophysical field observations, data analysis, and/or data modeling to improve understanding of dynamic earth processes. This may include research related to magma dynamics and storage, surface or seafloor deformation, volcano seismo-acoustics, and earthquake and eruption processes and hazards. The ideal candidate would build on existing synergies across SOEST and the University of Hawaiâ??i, as well as with local agencies such the USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory, and the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center. Expertise in the implementation of cutting-edge geophysical programs, that may include, but are not limited to, seismic, acoustic, potential field, and/or geoelectric studies, large-N deployments, high performance computing, and machine learning/AI techniques applicable to any of these research areas would be an asset.

The Department has 18 faculty as well as 35 additional cooperating graduate faculty in the Hawaiâ??i Institute of Geophysics and Planetology ( https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.higp.hawaii.edu/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!ZvAUN7MiJXCKlsQxi-DAxFOTDN7sKXoQtoTODY90AumAnRg29i6tNdc0uH9ebQA0zJrv_OHYmqsvXsY6$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.higp.hawaii.edu/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!Zah8CSgPKecQWNh94WoAYlDHdcT-VYGsmwxGcJd-q23vDGEgFYG3ILVAXHHydF5zAQkiE3SnBN-ul3NxRQkcICQ$>). Together these faculty instruct and advise approximately 60 graduate students and 120 undergraduate majors. The University of Hawaiâ??i at MÄ?noa is one of 115 Research-1 Universities in the country, and is one of only a handful of land-, sea-, space-, and sun-grant institutions. It is a world leader in Earth and environmental sciences, consistently ranked among the top 15 universities internationally in these disciplines. UH MÄ?noa is proud of its diverse, multiethnic heritage. Located in Hawaiâ??iâ??s capital city of Honolulu at the crossroads of the Pacific, the campus is home to students, faculty and staff from Hawaiâ??i, the continental U.S., and more than 100 countries around the world. UH MÄ?noaâ??s programs often rank among the nationâ??s most diverse.
