Advancing earthquake science worldwide
A postdoctoral position is available at the Université de Lyon, beginning in Spring 2017. The position is a full-time 2-years appointment. The successful applicant will work on computational methods for non-linear inverse problems, and in particular Bayesian sampling methods applied to geophysical inverse problems. The position is in the dynamic, … Continue Reading »
The open PhD position falls within the broad domain of computational seismology. The primary objective of the project is to develop novel algorithms for inversion of seismic data. Developments should be geared towards imaging seismic anisotropy in the mantle with fully non-linear inverse methods, such as Bayesian sampling methods. The … Continue Reading »
