Geodynamics Postdoctoral Position (7/30/08)
A Postdoctoral Position in Geodynamics of Subduction Zones
Starting Date: Immediately through July 2009
Location: Department of Geology, UC Davis, Davis, CA 95616
Compensation: Full-time, Step I, ($32K-$38K depending on experience level)
Principal Investigator: Dr. Magali I. Billen
A postdoctoral position is available to study the dynamics of plateau
subduction and crustal obduction using 3D numerical models of
mantle-lithosphere dynamics. The successful applicant will be a highly
motivated, independent researcher with interests in multidisciplinary
approaches to investigating the dynamics of subduction zones. Numerical
modeling experience, including both using and modifying finite element
software, and proficient programming skills are required. The
applicant=92s experience should include modeling of mantle and/or
lithospheric dynamics with non-linear rheology. Applicants must have
completed their Ph.D at the time the position starts, be proficient in
spoken and written communication in English, and have a publication
record reflective of their level of experience.
The position is funded for 1 year by an NSF EAR CAREER grant, with
possibility of renewal for additional years. This project is part of a
research effort integrating 3D numerical models of subduction dynamics
and development of teaching tools to improve student comprehension of
the geological expression of 3D deformation.
Applicants should send, by e-mail (PDF attachments), a curriculum vitae
with bibliography, a one-page statement of research interests and the
names of three references to: Dr. Magali I. Billen, Department of
Geology, University of California, Davis, One Shields Avenue, Davis, CA
95616; e-mail: billen@geology.ucdavis.edu; FAX: (530) 752-0951. UC Davis
is an equal opportunity employer.
The first posting of this announcement is August 2008 and applications
will be considered continuously until an appropriate candidate is
identified. For enquiries, please contact Dr. Magali Billen
directly(billen@geology.ucdavis.edu).
