3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3 From: "Nemesio M. Pérez RodrÃguez" <nperez@xxxxxxx> *Call for Expressions of Interest for Postdoc and Tenure-track Researchers in the Canary Islands (Spain) * The *deadline to submit expressions of interest is 10 January 2023* !! 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 reserach topics listed before. - 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 01/01/2021-31/12/2022) - you can be any citizenship The characteristics of the *Juan de la Cierva Post-Doc* are: . - To contract early-career researchers wishing to start their Post- Doctoral career - Contract duration: 2 years - Gross salary between 25500 â?¬/year and 30000 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-jcr/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!aeVajZN6d2S_6s2vCpKGoup5B6NPJ8Shs6beR3vi0QxH8hFzrV1Eq93UUDlwfnqeAkCA8lZ0By8dhGkM$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.iter.es/portfolio-items/publicaciones-en-revistas-del-jcr/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!f1PKx8QONY8qI8_524iSlQcvlaBIZ6HEYOYLuv1ZibCyJDu82LL1D9_cunrTz0SIz5-jQNthnR7M5Q$> - confirmation of your eligibility (Ph.D. obtained during the period 01/01/2012-31/12/2020) - 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 34000 â?¬/year (1st period) and 39900 â?¬/year (2nd period) Inquiries can be directed toward Nemesio M. Perez, Scientist-in-charge of INVOLCAN and the Director of the ITER`s Environmental Research Division at nperez@xxxxxxx. The *deadline for expressions of interest is 10 January 2023*. We hope to see you in sunny Tenerife! Did you know: the ancients called the Canary Islands the â??fortunate islesâ??? They werenâ??t wrong then, and they wouldnâ??t be now either.
