The Asian School of the Environment (ASE) invite applications for a Research Fellow to investigate volcanic processes combining monitoring and experimental approaches. This will involve the quantitative analysis of analogue experiments design to understand conduit processes. This work will be taking place in an already existing experimental facility.

The successful candidate will work in a vibrant scientific department with state-of-the-art labs and a team of international scientists. Candidates with prior experience in analogue experiments on volcanic processes and acquisition of field data are desired.

Key Responsibilities:

• The candidate will characterize, through analogue modelling, volcanic conduit dynamic and associated monitoring signature.
• In parallel the candidate will conduct, if/when possible, field measurement of degassing at active volcanoes.
• The candidate will be expected to publish the scientific outcomes of this research in high quality, peer-reviewed, international scientific journals.
• He or she will have the opportunity to participate in the various volcanology-related education and outreach activities of the Earth Observatory of Singapore and the Asian School of the Environment.

Job Requirements:

• PhD degree in volcanology.
• Prior experience in analogue modelling. First-hand experience of field measurement is an advantage.
• Mastering of a programming language would be valued (e.g. Python, Matlab...)
• Self-driven, highly motivated, with interest to work with other researchers and scientists (team player) to produce high-quality research.

The College of Science seeks a diverse and inclusive workforce and is committed to equality of opportunity. We welcome applications from all and recruit on the basis of merit, regardless of age, race, gender, religion, marital status and family responsibilities, or disability.

We regret that only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
