Presentation

A 4-year PhD position is available in the Institute of Earth Surface Dynamics (IDYST) at the University of Lausanne, focusing on the application of electron spin resonance dating and numerical modelling of landscape evolution to understand spatial and temporal variability in glacial erosion within the patagonian Andes. This position is part of the SNSF funded project "(How) Do glaciers buzz saw?". Further information about the project can be found here .

The successful candidate will be jointly supervised by Prof. Georgina King and Dr. Maxime Bernard and will join a diverse and dynamic group of geoscientists in the Interactions between Climate and Earth surface processes research group (ICE) which focusses on the pairing of data obtained using cutting-edge geochronological methods together with innovative numerical modelling for understanding landcape evolution.

Job information

Expected start date in position : 01.01.2027

Contract length : 1 year, renewable up to 4 years maximum

Activity rate : 100%

Workplace : Lausanne Mouline (Geopolis)

Your responsibilities

Within the framework of this project, the doctoral candidate will join an interdisciplinary, international team of scientists to explore the timing and rates of glacial erosion across the Patagonian Andes using cutting-edge geochronology and numerical modelling techniques. Specifically, they will use electron spin resonance thermochronometry together with the Instructed Glacial Model (IGM) and Pecube thermalkinematic software to quantify the timing and rates of glacial erosion at a range of sites. In addition to working with previously collected samples, they will have the opportunity to participate in fieldwork and will work on the collection, preparation, analysis and data interpretation of further samples from the Patagonian Andes.

Your qualifications

Master's degree in geography/geology/earth science
Experience of trapped-charge dating (ESR or luminescence dating) and/or numerical modelling
Fieldwork experience would be advantageous, but is not essential
Keen interest in developing new analytical and experimental approaches
Good command of written and spoken English
Interest in geomorphology/landscape evolution/glaciology/geochronology

What the position offers you

We offer a nice working place in a multicultural, diverse and dynamic academic environment. Opportunities for professional training, a lot of activities and other benefits to discover.
