<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in;font-size:12pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">The Department of Earth Sciences in the School of Ocean and
Earth Science and Technology
(SOEST), University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa seeks to fill a faculty position at the level of Assistant Professor in the
area of geophysics, with a particular emphasis on geophysical research broadly relevant to hazards, such as
volcanic, earthquake, and landslide
processes, in either marine or terrestrial settings. The candidate will build
on existing departmental expertise
in physical and geochemical volcanology, seismic imaging, and geodynamic modeling. We seek a talented
scientist eager to leverage our unique
Pacific Island location to conduct studies of both regional and broader earth science topics using observational and
computational approaches. The successful applicant
is expected to establish an externally funded and internationally recognized research program, enthusiastically
contribute to graduate and undergraduate advising and teaching, and carry out professional service activities.
Willingness to engage with faculty,
staff, and students in a collaborative fashion that supports Indigenous values and perspectives, as well as diversity
and inclusivity, is essential.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in;font-size:12pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">We are interested in an individual who will use geophysical
field observations, data analysis,
and/or data modeling to improve understanding of dynamic earth processes. This may include research related to
magma dynamics and storage, surface or seafloor deformation, volcano seismo-acoustics, and earthquake and
eruption processes and hazards.
The ideal candidate would build on existing synergies across SOEST and the University of Hawai’i, as well as
with local agencies such the USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory, and the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center. Expertise
in the implementation of
cutting-edge geophysical programs, that may include, but are not limited to,
seismic, acoustic, potential
field, and/or geoelectric studies, large-N deployments, high performance computing, and machine
learning/AI techniques applicable to any of these research areas would be an asset.</p>
