• PhD position in Geophysics, Applied and Environmental Geophysics Group, ETH Zurich
  PhD position in Geophysics, Applied and Environmental Geophysics Group, ETH Zurich
  The Applied and Environmental Geophysics Group of ETH Zurich has an immediate opening for a fully funded PhD project in hydrogeophysics. The primary objectives of the project are to: (i) complete the processing of an exceptionally high quality airborne electromagnetic data set recorded across the entire Okavango Delta in Botswana, (ii) collect a variety of ground-based geophysical data at one or more target locations in the Okavango Delta, (iii) process the ground-based data, and (iv) produce an integrated hydrogeophysical interpretation of all data sets. Specialists at the University Aarhus in Denmark will co- supervise the processing of the airborne electromagnetic data, colleagues at the Geological Survey of Botswana will provide assistance during the field survey, and researchers in the ETH hydrology group will co-supervise the hydrogeological aspects of the research. We are seeking a well-qualified and motivated student with a masters degree in geophysics, physics, geology or hydrology. We are a dynamic international research group working on a wide variety of high-profile topics in applied and computational geophysics. The working languages in our group are English or German. Interested candidates should send by email their Curriculum Vitae and the names and addresses of three referees by December 1, 2009 to Professor Alan Green at alan@aug.ig.erdw.ethz.ch.
