The Role
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an Academic position in Seismology in the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences (EPS). We seek a seismologist, with a proven track record of 1) adopting innovative and multidisciplinary approaches to the study of the Earth and/or other planets and 2) deployment of seismic instruments and collection of seismic data, to join an interdisciplinary team linking Earth's crustal scale processes from modelling, geophysical imaging, magnetotellurics, experimental petrology, geochemistry and planetary evolution. This position will join vibrant, innovative and multidisciplinary geophysics research groups (magnetotellurics, seismology, numerical modelling and inversion, environmental geophysics, geodynamics) working in close collaboration with experimental and geochemical groups in the department to form a unique interdisciplinary research group in integrated studies of the Earth interior and imaging. Macquarie University is a world leader in isotope geochemistry with the ARC Core to Crustal Fluids Centre of Excellence. This new appointment will draw on world-class integrated modelling and geochemical expertise to link observations to detailed models of the Earth's physical constitution.
The position has an observational/field seismological focus. Preference will be given to professorial level candidates who have experience with deployment of seismic instruments and large geophysical arrays and exceptional early career researchers. Please see below for the relevant expectations for academic staff levels at Macquarie University. The candidate will be expected to teach and carry out innovative research in these fields, participate in up-coming national seismological programs. Candidates with research interests and experience that complements the interests of the Macquarie University scientists in EPS (https://eps.mq.edu.au/staff/) will be viewed favourably.
