Ph.d.-stilling i glaciologi

This Ph.D. position in glaciology requires a mid-level candidate with a strong academic background in earth sciences, environmental science, or a related field, ideally with some prior research experience in glaciology or cryospheric studies. The role demands expertise in studying glaciers, ice sheets, and related processes, including ice dynamics, mass balance, and climate interactions. Candidates should be proficient in data collection and analysis techniques relevant to glaciology, such as remote sensing, field measurements, and numerical modeling. Familiarity with geospatial tools and programming languages like Python, MATLAB, or R for data processing and simulation is advantageous. A solid understanding of climate systems and their impact on glacial environments is essential. The position may involve fieldwork in challenging environments, requiring practical skills in safety protocols and equipment handling in cold and remote locations. Strong analytical skills, scientific writing, and the ability to communicate research findings effectively are important. Collaboration within interdisciplinary teams and contributing to peer-reviewed publications will be expected. Overall, the ideal candidate combines theoretical knowledge with practical research skills in glaciology, demonstrating the capacity to conduct independent scientific investigations and contribute to advancing understanding of ice-related processes and their broader environmental implications.
