Post-Doctoral Position in Seismic Imaging We are seeking a post-doctoral researcher interested in developing and applying algorithms for structural seismic imaging with teleseismic data using direct imaging methods, i.e., depth migration and wavefield inversion. Professional requirements are a strong background in theoretical seismology, strong computational skills, and some familiarity with teleseismic or active source seismic data processing. The Center for Computational Geophysics is a lead partner in a 180 node/1920 core cluster computer and a 3D visualization center. The CCG operates a number of other cluster computers and SMP machines. The position is for 2 years renewable to a maximum of 3 years. Rice is an affirmative action employer offering competitive salaries and benefits. Please contact: Alan Levander William W.

The successful applicant will be engaged in interdisciplinary research exploring reactive transport and subsurface characterization in multiphase environments. He/she will be involved in model development and application, laboratory experimental design, supervision of graduate and undergraduate research assistants, report and proposal writing, and grants administration. A PhD, background in porous media transport modeling in soil science, chemical, or environmental engineering and good oral and written communication skills are required. Current laboratory projects span the prediction of nanoparticle fate and transport, use of nanomaterials in subsurface characterization and remediation, and nonaqueous phase source zone persistence and characterization. Collaborating IMPES faculty include Professors Kurt Pennell, Andrew Ramsburg, and Eric Miller. For more information, please see (http://engineering.tufts.edu/cee/impes/), (http://engineering.tufts.edu/cee/), or contact Professor Linda Abriola ( This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it ). The position start date is August 1, 2010 or as soon as possible thereafter. Applications will be accepted until the position is filled. Interested applicants should send their curriculum vitae, statement of research interests, and full contact information for three references to: This research will be carried out in the framework of two ANR (Agence Nationale de la Recherche) projects, one on tsunamis in the western Mediterraneans (Maremoti project), and the other one on volcanic tsunamis (Vitesss project). Both projects run until January 2012. It means that we have already fundings for laboratory analysis and field surveys on the topic of tsunami deposits (Mediterranean area). Topics will focus on micromorphology of tsunami depoits, tomography and / or geomorphic impact of tsunamis through sedimentological studies on pre-post tsunami sediments from the ecosystems affected, and from analysis of satellite imagery. Start date: September 2010. Please contact: Raphaël Paris Clermont Université GEOLAB UMR 6042 CNRS-UBP 4 rue Ledru 63057 Clermont-Ferrand, FRANCE tél. +33 473 34 68 22 mail.
