Post-Doctoral Opportunity
The University of Manchester School of Earth, Atmospheric and Environmenta Sciences
Applications are invited for two post-doctoral researchers in submarine geomorphology. One post will involve deriving geomorphic parameters of canyons in a variety of submarine slope morphologic datasets, contributing to the growing subject of submarine slope geomorphologic modelling. The second post will apply "mesh" computing techniques to study irregularly spaced topographic data of one or more types of geological features depending on the applicant's experience and interest. This post may suit a physical volcanologist or sedimentologist experienced in working with topographic data.
The appointments will be for 22 months in the first instance, with extension dependent on funding. The closing dates for both posts is 10 September 2007.
