Postdoc position on speleothem seismic vulnerability from FEM modeling (1-2 years) in Katowice (Poland)

The position is funded within the Polish National Science Centre (NCN) SONATA BIS project “Enhancing paleoseismological record through multi-methods cave deformation analysis tested in diverse Hellenides tectonic regimes”. The project aims to develop methods for using speleothems as indicators of earthquake environmental effects and their application in paleoseismological research.

They are looking for a candidate with experience in numerical modelling (FEM) and/or experience in paleoseismic research or seismological analyses, who will be responsible, among others, for:
• coordinating and preparing input data for FEM analyses and performing numerical modelling of speleothems,
• comparing the results with previous studies and preparing scientific publications.

The position will be based at the Institute of Earth Sciences, University of Silesia in Katowice, with the possibility of partial remote work, and in collaboration with research teams from Greece and Austria. Within the project, 2–3 field trips to caves in Greece are planned (including the collection of lidar data and speleothem samples).
