Scholarship Info: Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Norway

University of Oslo offers Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Geodynamics in Norway

Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the field of Geodynamics at The Center of Excellence for the Physics of Geological Processes, University of Oslo in Norway.

Study Subject: Geodynamics
Course Level: Postdoctoral
Scholarship Provider: University of Oslo

Eligibility:-The candidate must have a PhD (or other corresponding education equivalent to a Norwegian doctoral degree) in Geophysics/Geodynamics.

- We are looking for highly motivated and competent candidates with background in mantle dynamics and plate tectonic modeling.

-A good command of English is required

Scholarship Open for International Students: No

Scholarship Description: We are seeking a post-doctoral candidate to participate in the project “Beyond Plate Tectonics” – An ERC Advanced Grant awarded to Professor T.H. Torsvik (2011-2016). The project aims to develop a new global model of plate kinematics that will be linked to the mantle with the aid of a new plate motion reference frame based on moving hotspots and on palaeomagnetic data. The resulting model will constitute the input to subduction models that are meant to test the consistency between the reference frame and subduction histories. The final outcome will be a novel global subduction reference frame that will be used to explore links between surface processes such as eruption of large igneous provinces and heterogeneities in the deepest mantle. We are seeking an outstanding and highly motivated researcher to participate in this international collaboration. Numerical modelling experience and programming skills are required and we expect the applicant’s experience to include global scale modelling of mantle convection, subduction, plumes and/or modelling of plate tectonic kinematics.
