MSc Opportunities in Civil Engineering and Geosciences at Delft University of Technology Delft University of Technology in Netherlands

TU Delft is advertising a 2-year postdoctoral researcher position on monitoring thermally induced seismic events in the context of geothermal energy extraction . The project focuses on understanding when reservoir cooling in sedimentary geothermal projects can lead to significant seismic activity, combining laboratory experiments , geophysical field monitoring , and numerical reservoir modelling . The postdoc will work on centroid-moment tensor inversions for small induced events, first in the G...

Utrecht University is advertising a PhD position in modelling of turbidity current fluxes in submarine canyons within the Faculty of Geosciences , Department of Earth Sciences, in the Netherlands. The project is part of DEEP-FLUX (Journey of low-density particles to the DEEP ocean floor – terrestrial organic carbon and microplastics FLUX through submarine canyons). The research focuses on how submarine canyons transport land-derived materials to the deep ocean through turbidity currents, with pa...

Postdoctoral opening at Delft University of Technology for research on monitoring thermally induced seismic events . The project focuses on seismic wave fields , their mechanics, and related seismic processing and inversion methods. Experience with finite-difference wave-equation solvers such as SeisSol or SPECFEM3D is highlighted as a plus. The post is shared by Anne Pluymakers (Associate Professor, Rock and Fault Mechanics for the Energy Transition) and mentions collaboration with Guy Drijkoni...

CNRS is advertising a postdoctoral position in geology numerical modelling based at Géosciences Environnement Toulouse (GET) in Toulouse, France . The project focuses on lithosphere-scale processes , sedimentary basin evolution , thermo-mechanical modelling , and surface process modelling , with applications to the Aquitaine Basin , foreland basin evolution, stratigraphy, thermal history, and subsurface resource exploration. The postdoc is part of the PEPR sous-sol, bien commun project IDYLLE (I...

Utrecht University is advertising a PhD position in mixing in turbidity currents , with a focus on experiments and submarine canyons . The project is part of DEEP-FLUX (Journey of low-density particles to the deep ocean floor – terrestrial organic carbon and microplastics flux through submarine canyons), a broader research effort on how land-derived materials are transported to the deep ocean. The successful candidate will work in the Department of Earth Sciences , Faculty of Geosciences, at Utr...
