Open Until: 2019-11-27
The University of Vienna (20 faculties and centres, 178 fields of study, approx. 9.800 members of staff, about 90.000 students) seeks to fill the position as soon as possible.
Reference number: 10206
The Section of Geophysics is looking to fill a position of university assistant/predoc in the field of seismology. Our research contexts are structure and internal deformation of the Alpine region, seismic hazard, seismoacoustic waves, and nuclear verification. Data are available from AlpArray and related European projects, as is our short-period instrument pool (Fairfields). Some specific topics of interest are structure, deformation, and temporal variations of subsurface properties; elastoacoustic wave propagation, environmental seismology, man-made seismic signals, the application of deep learning, but this is not exclusive; e.g., geodynamic modeling of geophysical constraints is also possible.
Duration of employment: 4 year/s
Extent of Employment: 30 hours/week
