[ES_JOBS_NET] Postdoc position in modeling subglacial meltwater erosion

[Anders Damsgaard]

Dear all,

The Department of Geoscience, Aarhus University, Denmark, invites
applicants for a two-year post-doctoral position in numerical modelling
of meltwater erosion under ice sheets as part of the ongoing project
"Dynamical modelling of subglacial meltwater erosion during past and
future glaciations". The work revolves around building a numerical
model of subglacial channelized drainage over soft beds, simulating the
formation of tunnel valleys, and predicting the dynamics of erosion
processes under the future ice sheets. The study will be utilizing a
detailed geological model of parts of northern Germany, at the outskirt
of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet during major Quaternary glaciations. The
project is carried out in collaboration with the Department of Geology,
Leibniz University Hannover, Germany.

The ideal candidate has a strong background in one or several disciplines
including geoscience, glaciology, hydrogeology, numerical methods, and
high performance computing. Interest in quantifying geological processes
and experience with numerical modelling are essential. The applicants
must have a Ph.D. in either geoscience/geology, applied mathematics,
physics, computer science, cryosphere research, or a related field by
the time of appointment. The position is funded by the Bundesgesellschaft
f\xc3\xbcr Endlagerung, Germany.

The application must be received by December 31, 2022 and the position
is to be occupied by May 1, 2023 for a period of two years.
