3 yrs post-doc offer at Burgos University, Spain.


Dear friends and colleagues,

We are seeking excellent PhD-level candidates for a 3 years post-doc in archaeomagnetic studies, resident in our paleomagnetic laboratory in Burgos University, Spain.

Please notify any potential applicants, of whom you might be aware, about this opportunity.

See position details below.



Thank you

University of Burgos post-doc research opportunity: Paleomagnetic study of burnt archaeological materials and speleothems of the Holocene and Upper Pleistocene.

We seek a postdoctoral scientist with strong field and laboratory experience in palaeo/ archaeomagnetism to work with experienced researchers at the Laboratory of Palaeomagnetism of Burgos University (Spain).



The project will focus on the study of prehistoric burnt archaeological materials along with speleothems with a twofold goal. On the one hand, it is intended to increase and extend in time the existing geomagnetic databases in Spain obtaining full-vector data (direction and absolute paleointensity). This will allow to extend the archaeomagnetic dating technique to the recent prehistory. On the other hand, directional and relative paleointensity analyses will be carried out on Holocene and Upper Pleistocene speleothems from the Iberian Peninsula in order to reconstruct paleoenvironmental variations. Additionally, this post-doc will also explore other archaeomagnetic applications of geoarchaeological interest. The materials to be studied comprise hearths, pottery or burnt cave sediments as well as speleothems from the Iberian Peninsula.



This project will involve collaboration with different institutions providing the researcher a good opportunity to gain experience in this field. The funding is open to researchers of any nationality. The hosting group will help the candidates, especially foreigners, with the bureaucratic limitations that may arise. Burgos University paleomagnetic lab is full equipped to successfully carry out this project and the scientific staff has wide experience in paleomagnetic, paleointensity and rock-magnetic research.

For further details, potential candidates are encouraged to contact to Ángel Carrancho (acarrancho en ubu.es<mailto:acarrancho en ubu.es>) and Elisa Mª Sánchez (emsanchez en ubu.es<mailto:emsanchez en ubu.es>). Closing date is not yet definitely set but it will be about January 10th, 2024.



Kind regards

Ángel Carrancho and Elisa Mª Sánchez (project leaders).
