Dear colleagues,

A PhD position is available at the Department of Geology at Lund
University, Sweden, with a focus on paleomagnetic analyses of sediment
cores from Kerguelen and South Georgia islands. The PhD project will be
part of a larger EU-funded project that will investigate ancient
analogues of the present-day geomagnetic field to understand the
underlying core processes responsible for the current dipole decay and
the growth of the South Atlantic Anomaly.

Please find the detailed job announcement and instruction of how to
apply at https://lu.varbi.com/en/what:job/jobID:688468/ [1].

Feel free to pass on the information to any potential PhD candidates
that may have an interest. The closing date for applications is 20
February 2024.

Kind regards,
Andreas Nilsson

  DOCTORAL STUDENT IN PALEOMAGNETISM

  SUBJECT DESCRIPTION

  A doctoral student position in Geobiosphere Science under the research
topic of palaeomagnetism is hereby announced at the Department of
Geology, Lund University (LU), Sweden. The PhD project will be part of a
larger EU-funded ERC project PALEOCORE with the aim to investigate
ancient analogues of the present-day geomagnetic field to understand the
underlying core dynamics responsible for the rapid decay of the dipole
field over the past two centuries and the concomitant growth of the
South Atlantic Anomaly.

  WORK DUTIES

  The PhD research will be focused on palaeomagnetic analyses of
previously collected sediment cores from strategically selected
locations in the Southern Hemisphere, Kerguelen and South Georgia
Islands, where current geomagnetic field models are not well
constrained. The aim is both to (i) improve global geomagnetic field
models and to (ii) date/synchronize the different sediment records from
the same region using novel modelling approaches. In addition, the PhD
student will also compile and re-analyse existing sedimentary
palaeomagnetic records from around the world, with particular emphasis
on evaluating data uncertainties. The established database will be used
in the construction of a new generation of global geomagnetic field
models that will be developed in parallel within the ERC project.

  The PhD student will be part of a larger research team here in Lund and
the project will also involve extensive exchanges with associated
research teams in Oregon, USA, and Bergen, Norway.

LAST APPLICATION DATE 20.Feb.2024 11:59 PM CET
