Sat Jun 29 02:43:48 AEST 2024

We are very happy to announce the new Marie Skłodowska-Curie Action - Doctoral Network INITIATE<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/wuNzClx1NjiOppRGMSG4iP_?domain=initiate-dn.eu> dedicate to Climate - Tectonics interactions using Big Data and Numerical models. INITIATE brings together 5 academic beneficiaries: University of Bergen<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/Usm5CmO5glu1DDyXMCOTmzt?domain=linkedin.com>, CNRS<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/V--JCnx1jniljj9wWFNGehW?domain=linkedin.com>, University of Barcelona, University of Potsdam<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/ZKigCoV1kpflZZ29wF6UVFo?domain=linkedin.com>, and Helmholtz-Centre Potsdam - German Research Centre GFZ<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/o6d0Cp81lrtQKK4kwHJfq6v?domain=linkedin.com>. It also includes 13 partners from the academic world (Université Paul Sabatier Toulouse III<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/UJG9Cq71mwfLllYB2TrAlDT?domain=linkedin.com>, IFP Energies nouvelles<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/W0NICr81nytwooQMmSGhEeT?domain=linkedin.com>, University of Athens), the public sector (Institut of Cartography of Catalogna, UNESCO Geoparc Orígens, The Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate), the energy industry (TotalEnergies<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/Q1nVCvl1rKiOKKw1lS8pqTj?domain=linkedin.com>, Repsol<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/cRb-CwV1vMf099l6NTRl4gS?domain=linkedin.com>, Aker BP ASA<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/OhUDCxngwOfmwwE8XS7zRdW?domain=linkedin.com>, Equinor<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/pKEYCyojxQT6kkOD4TnHev1?domain=linkedin.com>, Vulcan Energy Resources<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/_jFbCzvkyVC899WDrF1-ALD?domain=linkedin.com>) and satellite data (GAF AG<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/jYYbCANpgjCr22p0RfkVvni?domain=linkedin.com>, DELPHI IMM GmbH<https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/zWTJCBNqjlCPBBWqnfMFwcp?domain=linkedin.com>).

We are looking for 13 doctoral candidates that will study interactions between tectonics and climate at different spatial (1 - 1000 km) and temporal (1 year -10 Ma) scales and how they control sediment distribution at the Earth's surface, landscape stability and associated geohazards, using numerical models informed by "big data".

See https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/6wNgCD1vlpTj00YpxtxWOAC?domain=initiate-dn.eu for information about the positions and how to apply.
