Postdoctoral Research Associate in Geophysics
Durham University - Durham
Applications are invited for
a Postdoctoral Research Associate to join the NERC funded project “Role and
extent of detachment faulting at slow-spreading mid-ocean ridges”.
This collaborative research project has Project Partners at the Universities of Birmingham and Cardiff and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, and will investigate the processes of oceanic crustal accretion at slow spreading rates, in particular the role played by large-offset normal “detachment” faults in the formation of oceanic core complexes at 13N on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. As part of the project an extensive geophysical dataset will be acquired during a cruise on the research vessel James Cook to 13N on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge in Jan-Feb 2016. The post-holder will be expected to participate in this research cruise and, subsequently, analyse and interpret the 3D ocean-bottom seismograph wide-angle, controlled-source seismic data acquired, together with the coincident gravity and magnetic profiles. The primary focus of this post will be to determine the geometry and extent of surface observable features at depth, using P- and S-wave 3D-volume velocity models, to reveal how detachments relate to magmatic accretion in time and space. The results of this research will be integrated with those of in-parallel studies of local seismicity and multichannel seismic crustal imaging being undertaken by our collaborators. |

National Hedgehog Survey Volunteers
UK Wide - Volunteer • Part
Time • Temporary
The Western European hedgehog is widely
believed to have undergone a marked decline in Britain in the last few
decades. As a result, the species has been highlighted as being of
conservation concern. Studies are, therefore, urgently required to identify the
current distribution of the species, to determine factors affecting this
distribution and to serve as a baseline against which future changes can be
compared.
Consequently, the University of Reading and
Nottingham Trent University, in collaboration with the People’s Trust for
Endangered Species (PTES)
and the British Hedgehog Preservation Society (BHPS),
are conducting a National Hedgehog Survey in 2014 and 2015. To complete this
survey, we are looking to enlist the help of volunteers to survey designated
sites across England and Wales using footprint-tunnels
Please note that this
survey requires a commitment to monitor 10 tunnels over five consecutive
nights in a 1km square that will be allocated to you; you will also need one
extra day to arrange your survey with landowners.
We are particularly keen to get sites in Wales,
Cornwall, Norfolk, Devon, Northumberland, Northamptonshire and Yorkshire
surveyed.
