Post Doctoral Fellow
Fairbanks, Alaska, United States
UAF Vice Chancellor for Research
The Alaska Earthquake Center is hiring a Postdoctoral Research Fellow to advance new approaches to assessing and monitoring large landslides, including landslides that may induce tsunamis. We seek an individual with a strong foundation in observational seismology or a closely related field. The position provides a rare opportunity to pursue research in an environment where these applications can be test-driven in real-time monitoring. You will have opportunities to work with large geophysical datasets and time series, and blend seismic analysis with complementary approaches, including machine learning, remote sensing, and geodesy. We especially seek applicants with diverse (broadly defined) backgrounds that are historically underrepresented in STEM fields.
The Earthquake Center is a mission-driven organization set within the Geophysical Institute at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. The university offers an attractive work environment and strong benefits, including retirement and health insurance, generous leave policies, and tuition waivers for UAF courses. The Earthquake Center’s values emphasize employee flexibility, the open sharing of different perspectives, a respectful, inclusive environment, and a commitment to serving Alaska and Alaskans with strong applied science. Career growth and professional development are expected and encouraged.
Post Doctoral Fellow - NSF Critical Mineral Engine
Fairbanks, Alaska, United States
UAF Vice Chancellor for Research
This position is funded through the NSF Engines: Critical Mineral Accelerator Engine in Alaska, supported by the U.S. The National Science Foundation. The aim of this fellowship is to assist Dr. Sean Regan and Dr. Florian Hofmann in the study of critical mineral fingerprinting using U-Pb-TREE analysis from modern river catchments in Alaska. The immediate study will focus on characterizing detrital zircon from streams draining variably mineralized catchments and developing chemical proxies to assess mineral prospectivity. This will include the development of innovative methodology and theory that isolates specific petrogenetic processes specific to mineralization. However, other research questions will also be pursued, including optimization of newly installed instrumentation for U-Pb-TREE analysis, including the development of routines, alternative mineral phases, and applications. Fellows will be encouraged to pursue their own research questions as well.
