The University of Rochester seismology laboratory (URSeismo) at the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences is seeking applications from highly motivated Ph.D. students to work on research opportunities in global lithospheric structure. Research at URSeismo will involve developing high-performance computing tools that process large amounts of ground vibration waveform data for Earth imaging. Members in our group work on research projects in marine seismology, crustal structure, ambient-noise spectral analysis, Bayesian inversion, and data sciences in solid earth geophysic. The interested student will work on a project investigating lithospheric layering beneath the African continent using advanced seismic imaging techniques.
Application deadline is January 15, 2021. For more details on the graduate program, see here. Early application is encouraged. Interested students may also contact Professor Tolulope Olugboji:
