Drowned Paleolandscapes – a geological record for assessing landscape and environment response to postglacial sea level rise and climate change

I’m hiring a PhD student for my project “Drowned Paleolandscapes – a geological record for assessing landscape and environment response to postglacial sea level rise and climate change” funded by the Carlsberg Foundation.

Read more here: https://lnkd.in/d3MwCTgm

Earliest start date is 1 February 2025 and the application deadline is 1 November 2024.

Applications are invited for a PhD fellowship/scholarship at Graduate School of Natural Sciences, Aarhus University, Denmark, within the Geoscience programme. The position is available from February 2025 or later.

Title:
Drowned Paleolandscapes – a geological record for assessing landscape and environment response to postglacial sea level rise and climate change

Research area and project description:
Candidates are invited to apply for a PhD fellowship focused on submerged paleolandscape analysis primarily by means of high-resolution marine geophysical data and sediment cores, with possibilities of utilizing numerical modeling approaches and machine learning. 

The successful candidate will become part of the RisingSea research group working to assess and quantify the preservation degree of drowned paleolandscapes and the response of low-topography landscapes and environments to rising sea level. More broadly, the project aims to utilize the geological archives of the eastern North Sea Basin to develop our basic understanding and reference framework for how low-topography landscapes and environments respond to rising sea level and climate change over longer time scales.

One of the main objectives of the research group is to establish a Drowned Paleolandscape Atlas, where the geophysical characteristics of specific preserved landscape types are described, and seismic morphologies are linked to various paleoenvironments. The PhD candidate will contribute to this work.

The PhD candidate will use seismo-acoustic data and sediment cores to study the geological processes that are prevalent during flooding and sea-level rise. The results will be of relevance for future climate mitigation and adaptions, sustainable use of the coastal zones, offshore windfarm constructions and geo-archaeology.

The project involves offshore fieldwork opportunities and close collaboration with research and industry partners both nationally and internationally; – including universities and research institutions in the United Kingdom, Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium. The PhD project will preferably include a research visit to one of the collaborating institutions.

The PhD position is funded by the Carlsberg Foundation.

Please upload a project description (½-4 pages). This document should describe your ideas and research plans for this specific project. If you wish to, you can indicate an URL where further information can be found.

Qualifications and specific competences:
Applicants must have a relevant Master’s degree or at least one year of a Master’s degree in geology, geophysics or similar. In addition, the candidate will have demonstrated analytical skills, a good command of English, excellent interpersonal skills, an open attitude to interdisciplinary research, and the ability to work in international collaborations. Previous experience with seismic and acoustic data and sediment cores, software for seismic interpretation and processing, and integrative approaches for combining geophysical, geotechnical, and geological data is highly desired.

Place of employment and place of work:
The place of employment is Aarhus University, and the place of work is Høegh-Guldbergs Gade 2, DK-8000 Aarhus, Denmark.
