Seismology studies by my group include earthquake monitoring, acoustic detection of marine mammals, and imaging of the interior of the earth. Seagoing expeditions utilize natural and artificial sources to image the crust and mantle in a variety of settings, particularly in areas of magmatism.  An immediate opportunity is available to participate on a marine seismic experiment in the Western Pacific (Tonga region).

 

 

A post-doctoral research position or Ph.D. position, for qualified individual, in seismology is available to work on an upcoming field seismology project in the western Pacific. The successful applicant will be expected to perform a variety of studies to constrain the three-dimensional seismic structure of the crust and mantle using active-source seismic data, including 3-D imaging to reveal processes of magma transport beneath the Lau Back-Arc Spreading Center.

 

This is a two-year position, but further continuation is possible. The nominal start date for this position is January 1, 2009, but some flexibility to earlier or later starting dates is possible. Applicants should contact:  Dr. Robert Dunn; dunnr@hawaii.edu; phone: (808) 956-3728. Applications will be accepted until the position is filled.
