2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2 From: "Kilburn, Christopher" <c.kilburn@xxxxxxxxx> Research Fellow in Volcanology at UCL, London, UK We are inviting applications for a Research Fellow to join our Project FEVER: Forecasting Eruptions at Volcanoes after Extended Repose. The position will be held in the UCL Hazard Centre ( https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.ucl.ac.uk/hazard-centre/ucl-hazard-centre__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!aK82-Vcr6zmjUcTnMPPIRQAO95kcFRzR9qHUZ9wbxQ0qz945-cL5rp0FcVzbhuV_hcPzGOA8oy4D_3_g$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.ucl.ac.uk/hazard-centre/ucl-hazard-centre__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!bKznrUtsxAjO_CPtpuf-u_mvS3WP8S6o4I3JQfloSrdRMTkZ0TIVJCvw8f1lwFqwGEGbIHlN2fMLTf7Va37OsHFJ$>) in the Department of Earth Sciences of University College London. It will continue for 26 months from 01 July 2023 in the first instance. The closing date for applications is 24 May. To apply, see https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.jobs.ac.uk/job/CZI067/research-fellow-in-volcanology__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!aK82-Vcr6zmjUcTnMPPIRQAO95kcFRzR9qHUZ9wbxQ0qz945-cL5rp0FcVzbhuV_hcPzGOA8o9C5LVI1$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.jobs.ac.uk/job/CZI067/research-fellow-in-volcanology__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!bKznrUtsxAjO_CPtpuf-u_mvS3WP8S6o4I3JQfloSrdRMTkZ0TIVJCvw8f1lwFqwGEGbIHlN2fMLTf7Va-9lGLWO$> FEVER is a joint project between UCL and the University of Portsmouth, INGV-Vesuvius Observatory and the Seismic Research Centre at the University of the West Indies. It will investigate the physical processes that control the approach to eruption at volcanoes reawakening after long repose. Such volcanoes are rarely monitored continuously. When unrest returns, forecasts of eruption rely on data from hastily-installed monitoring networks. Compelling needs for reliable forecasts are thus: a scientific need to follow how volcanoes break open pathways for magma escape, and a social need to warn communities of the dangers they face. The successful candidate will investigate the potential for forecasting eruptions (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00445-022-01532-0__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!aK82-Vcr6zmjUcTnMPPIRQAO95kcFRzR9qHUZ9wbxQ0qz945-cL5rp0FcVzbhuV_hcPzGOA8o_eUh3Zb$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00445-022-01532-0__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!bKznrUtsxAjO_CPtpuf-u_mvS3WP8S6o4I3JQfloSrdRMTkZ0TIVJCvw8f1lwFqwGEGbIHlN2fMLTf7Va14rp14W$>) by relating patterns of volcano-seismicity and ground deformation to processes for creating new pathways for magma ascent. They will build on our in-house models ( https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/feart.2018.00133/full__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!aK82-Vcr6zmjUcTnMPPIRQAO95kcFRzR9qHUZ9wbxQ0qz945-cL5rp0FcVzbhuV_hcPzGOA8owioJNFG$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/feart.2018.00133/full__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!bKznrUtsxAjO_CPtpuf-u_mvS3WP8S6o4I3JQfloSrdRMTkZ0TIVJCvw8f1lwFqwGEGbIHlN2fMLTf7Vaw7KuTbO$> ). The analysis of field data will be compared with data from analogue rock-physics experiments to be run at the University of Portsmouth. The results will be used to enhance forecasting procedures and tested by our Partners responsible for monitoring volcanoes in Italy and the Caribbean. 2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2 ------------------------------
