Postdoc and PhD Positions in Lunar Science, Planetary Geology, and Remote Sensing at The University of Hong Kong The University of Hong Kong in Hong Kong

Fully Funded PhD Position in Earth and Planetary Sciences at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) Meng Guo (Assistant Professor, HKU) is recruiting one PhD student to join the Gaia Lab in the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences. The project focuses on how Earth evolved from a newly formed rocky planet into a habitable world, combining geochemical and geophysical principles with quantitative Earth-system and planetary modeling . Research directions may include late accretion and impact evolut...

Reopened postdoctoral opportunity at the University of Portsmouth for a 42-month Senior Research Associate position in planetary geology and geochemistry . The project is supported by a NERC Pushing the Frontiers grant and investigates hypervelocity impact melting and early crustal evolution , with a focus on how impact melt sheets influenced the evolution of Earth and the Moon. The research combines igneous petrology , petrogenesis , mineral chemistry , microstructures , EBSD , isotope geochemi...

PhD position in stable silicon isotope geo- and cosmochemistry at the University of Göttingen with Andreas Pack. The project focuses on developing high-precision triple silicon isotope measurements and applying them to terrestrial rocks, meteorites, and planetary materials . The research combines analytical method development , gas-source mass spectrometry , and laboratory automation to investigate Solar System reservoirs . Applicants should hold a Master’s degree in geosciences, geochemistry, c...

Postdoctoral Fellow, School of Earth Sciences at the Australian National University (ANU), Canberra, Australia. This is a research-intensive postdoctoral appointment in the Research School of Earth Sciences, supported by an ANU–BHP collaborative project. The project focuses on experimental and analytical research on salt melts in iron oxide copper-gold systems, with an emphasis on Earth science, experimental petrology, mineralogical microanalysis, and related geochemical methods. The successful ...

Australian National University is advertising a 3-year Postdoctoral Fellow (Level A) in experimental petrology in Canberra, Australia. The project is collaborative with BHP and focuses on two linked research themes: rare earth extraction from tailings and REE enrichment during IOCG formation , with a specific focus on Olympic Dam . This is a strong fit for candidates with backgrounds in geology , geochemistry , earth science , materials science , and experimental mineral systems. The post is aim...
