(e.g. earthquake induced change); and (iii) monitoring of recent and
ongoing coastal evolution. (Deadline = 24 Nov 2017)



3. Assistant Professor in Earth surface dynamics and geohazards -
https://www.dur.ac.uk/resources/hr/recruitment/academicrecruitment2017/
GEOG18-2JD_060917.pdf

An individual to complement and extend our world-leading research into the
rates, patterns and drivers of environmental processes, in which we seek to

We have exceptional laboratory facilities to support these posts. Recent
investments include a multisensory core logger, XRF scanner, X-ray
facility, GC-MS and GC-IRMS for compound-specific isotope analysis,
alongside IC, ICP-MS and ICP-OES for inorganic trace and major element
analyses. A range of materials (pollen, diatoms, foraminifera and organic
biomarkers) are routinely prepared and analysed. Our field equipment
includes advanced laser scanning equipment and vehicles, a boat and several
UAVs, alongside an extensive suite of GIS and remote sensing software and
back pressure shear boxes and stress path cells in the Landslide
laboratory. and Outwith the department, we work closely with numerous
interdisciplinary initiatives in the University. Many staff contribute to
the pan-University Institute for Hazard, Risk and Resilience.
