PhD in Antarctic Seismology - University of Leeds

Good afternoon UKPN,

 

If you’re an aspiring glacier-seismologist, or teach an aspiring glacier-seismologist, read on!

 

I’m advertising a PhD project here in Leeds’ School of Earth and Environment, looking at measuring and modelling seismic anisotropy in Antarctic ice masses.  This is part of the TIME project, itself part of the International Thwaites Glacier Collaboration, and comes with an Antarctic field deployment in 2021-22. Full details are here: https://panorama-dtp.ac.uk/research/fractures-and-fabrics-in-glacier-ice-sensitivity-of-seismic-anisotropy-for-antarctic-ice-masses/

 

The details in the link will mention a closing date in January but, don’t worry, applications are open for another few weeks!  There are some limited NERC-related eligibility criteria to note, however, specifically that only UK students can receive the full funding (or, EU students who’ve been UK residents for 3+ years), and the project has to start before August.

 

Interested?  Give me a shout – I’d love to chat to you.

 

Best regards,

Adam
