Dear all,
We welcome applications for two fully funded PhD studentships in seismology, based at the University of Oxford. Applications from international (including EU) students will be considered and may receive full funding through the Oxford DTP.
Project 1: Multi-scale topography of Earth's core-mantle boundary
Summary: The dynamic topography on Earth’s core-mantle boundary reflects dynamic processes taking place in Earth’s mantle and core. Despite decades of study, the topography remains unconstrained, even on long wavelengths. This project aims to develop multi-scale models of CMB topography using both normal mode and body wave data.
Supervisors: Paula Koelemeijer, Tarje Nissen-Meyer

Funding: fully funded for 4 years through the Royal Society / Oxford DTP / Department of Earth Sciences
Project 2: Seismic noise sources and background seismicity in London
Summary: Despite being one of the world's most populous cities, London does not have a single permanent seismic station. However, recent studies have suggested that London sits atop active tectonic structures, capable of significant earthquakes. This project aims to install seismic instruments across London to study potential background seismicity, as well as investigating the sources of seismic noise.
Supervisors: Paula Koelemeijer, Mike Kendall, Richard Ghail (Royal Holloway)

2021-12-27 01:33:43Dear all,
We are looking for an enthusiastic postdoctoral researcher in computational seismology to join the Department of Earth Sciences at University College London, UK to work on the project UPFLOW (https://upflow-eu.github.io/) funded by the European Research Council (ERC). This position is fixed for 3 years, starting in February 2022 or as soon as possible afterwards and the deadline for application is the 7th of January 2022.
The successful candidate will have a strong background in computational seismology to develop new methods for the design of optimal seismic observables to probe deep upward mantle flow.
Collaborations are envisaged with various institutions worldwide, notably with LMU Munich, Germany (Prof. Heiner Igel).
To view further details about this post and to apply, please visit:
