Postdoctoral Researcher in Seismic Imaging
4 hours ago
We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to join our team at the University of Texas at Austin. The successful candidate will work on a project focused on seismic imaging techniques to study the structure and subduction zone processes of the Guerrero Seismic Gap of the Middle America Trench.
About the ProjectThe Guerrero Gap of the Middle American Trench has not ruptured in a M>7 earthquake in >100 yrs but hosts the largest known slow-slip events that occur at depths between 15 and 40km. In contrast, the neighboring megathrust segments have ruptured in M>7 earthquakes and appear to be strongly coupled. The main goals of this project are to use recently acquired active source seismic data to provide new insights into the along-strike changes in structure, composition and properties of the incoming and overriding plates as well as the megathrust fault, and how these changes relate to along-strike variability in slip behavior in the Mexican subduction zone.
About the RoleThe successful candidate will work primarily with Dr. Shuoshuo Han but will have opportunities to collaborate with other researchers at UTIG, across the Jackson School of Geosciences, and across the wider UT campus. Candidates should be self-motivated and interested in a collaborative working environment, which may include working closely with faculty, students, and other postdoctoral researchers. Candidates should have a strong background in geophysics, seismology, geology, geodynamics, and/or computer modeling.
Responsibilities- Conduct full waveform inversion on multichannel and ocean bottom seismometer data to resolve fine scale velocity structure of the Guerrero Seismic Gap and neighboring segments of the Middle American Trench.
- Investigate links between rock properties, fluids, and slow-slip events of the Guerrero Seismic Gap and other subduction zones.
- Help develop and lead new research projects in related areas.
- Contribute to research within a vibrant group of students, postdocs, and staff.
- Present results to the scientific community and broader public.
- Ph.D. in geophysics, geology, or a related field, completed within the last three years.
- Strong background in active source seismic data processing, analysis, and interpretation.
- Excellent communication skills and a collaborative working mindset.
- Strong publication record in closely related research topics.
The University of Texas at Austin provides a competitive salary, excellent benefits package, and a vibrant research environment. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work with a talented team of researchers and contribute to cutting-edge research in seismic imaging and geophysics.
