Postdoctoral Researcher in Geodynamics and Arctic Tectonics Purdue University in United States

The California Institute of Technology Seismological Laboratory is advertising postdoctoral fellowship opportunities in geophysics. The opening spans a broad set of research areas, including seismology, earthquake physics, geodesy, geodynamics, mineral physics, tectonics, seismic network operations, and new sensing methods. There are two main application routes. First, applicants to the GPS Division Prize Fellowships by November 6 will automatically be considered for both the Seismo Lab Director...

The Institute of Geophysics and Planetary Physics (IGPP) at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California San Diego, is recruiting two postdoctoral scholars for 2027 in any area of geophysics. This search is centered at IGPP within Scripps, with an in-person appointment based on the UC San Diego Scripps campus. The postdoctoral scholars will join a research environment focused on high-quality geophysics research and are encouraged to broaden their experience through interacti...

Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher for the NWO-funded project “Unraveling the geometry of subduction-induced mantle flow.” The project investigates how subduction drives mantle flow and how the experimental subduction rate and mantle viscosity influence the resulting mantle velocity field. The postdoc will develop, record and analyse laboratory-based experimental geodynamic models of subduction. The research will involve low-Reynolds-number fluid dynamics and de...

This postdoctoral project at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam focuses on experimental geodynamic modelling of subduction and subduction-induced mantle flow. The work sits within an NWO-funded project titled “Unraveling the geometry of subduction-induced mantle flow” and is embedded in the Geodynamics and Tectonics research group. The successful candidate will develop, run, record, and analyse laboratory-based models of subduction to investigate how experimental subduction rate and mantle viscosity s...

Kobe University invites applications for one full-time Project Assistant Professor, also listed as a researcher/postdoctoral-equivalent position, in the Fluid Geophysics Field of the Graduate School of Science's Department of Planetary Science in Kobe, Hyogo, Japan. The successful candidate will contribute to one or both of two projects: the JST Emergent Research Support Program project “From Earth Fluid Dynamics to Planetary Fluid Dynamics” and the MEXT Next Generation Computational Science pro...
