8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8 From: Rebecca Carey <rebecca.carey@xxxxxxxxxxx> *Two funded PhD positions in volcanology and magmatic processes available* We are seeking two PhD students to conduct research at the nexus of volcanic and magmatic systems. These projects will apply innovative approaches to understand the risk posed by submarine volcanoes (Project 1), and elucidate the triggers and processes involved in releasing and transporting Cu-metal-rich fluids from the deep crustal magmatic plumbing system to facilitate new Cu and critical metal ore discoveries required for the energy transition (Project 2). Project 1: The dynamics of powerful submarine eruptions: https://www.utas.edu.au/research/degrees/available-projects/projects/earth-sciences/submarine-volcanic-eruptions-and-hazards <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.utas.edu.au/research/degrees/available-projects/projects/earth-sciences/submarine-volcanic-eruptions-and-hazards__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!ZzwyWanWy1jNMK9BG3GV9500_ymILJFhe_a0lRmGRH73md8vvxw7PnJnjvTZqkt8Ajiw4pN26LuP_dKPnzkIYxyBDw$> Project 2: Locations and drivers of explosive release of ore-forming fluids https://www.utas.edu.au/research/degrees/available-projects/projects/earth-sciences/explosive-release-of-ore-forming-fluids <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.utas.edu.au/research/degrees/available-projects/projects/earth-sciences/explosive-release-of-ore-forming-fluids__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!ZzwyWanWy1jNMK9BG3GV9500_ymILJFhe_a0lRmGRH73md8vvxw7PnJnjvTZqkt8Ajiw4pN26LuP_dKPnzmp3Une6A$> The PhD projects are fully funded and includes a living allowance of $33,511 AUD per year for 3.5 years.
