[iris-bulk] (Job) Yellowstone Post Doctoral Studies Opportunity

[IRIS]

The University of Utah invites applications for a postdoctoral  
associate in seismology and/or geodetic imaging and related dynamics  
of the Yellowstone hotspot and its active magmatictectonic system. We  
are interested in a scientist to conduct research on such topics as  
earthquake source properties, integration of EarthScope GPS and  
strainmeter data with earthquakes and volcanic manifestations, volcano- 
fault stress interactions, deformation modeling, geodynamics, etc. A  
rich source of data is available from the University of Utah  
Yellowstone seismic network as well data from the EarthScope PBO GPS  
and borehole strainmeter arrays and the USArray seismic network (see www.uusatrg.utah.edu 
, www.seis.utah.edu and http://www.earthscope.org).  Interaction with  
students, faculty and with the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory (a  
partnership of the Univ. of Utah, the USGS, and Yellowstone National  
Park) as well as participation in earthquake response and  
interpretation needs is expected. Computing experience with the Linux/ 
Unix operating system is required.

Applicants must have a Ph.D. in geophysics or closely related field.  
Appointment will be for one year beginning summer 2008 or negotiable,  
with continuation contingent upon performance and funding. Applicants  
should email Robert B. Smith, (rbsmith at earth.utah.edu): 1) a letter of  
application including a statement of research interests and how the  
applicant is qualified to conduct the above research, 2) a current  
curriculum vitae, and 3) names and email addresses of three persons  
who can provide recommendations for the candidate. Applications will  
accepted until the position is filled. The University of Utah is an  
equal opportunity employer.
