100%, Zurich, fixed-termResearch in the Structural Geology and Tectonics group focuses on the rapidly deforming zones that define Earth’s tectonic plate boundaries and generate many of the planet’s geohazards. We are interested in the rates and directions in which faults and shear zones move; their geometries, widths and mechanical behaviours at depth; and the processes that shape them over geologic time. Project background Project: The Rheology of Metasedimentary Rocks Job descriptionThe successful candidate will be primary supervised by Dr. Leif Tokle and will involve collaboration with Dr. Claudio Madonna and Prof. Dr. Whitney Behr. The candidate will work primarily in the Rock Physics and Mechanics Laboratory at the ETH Zentrum campus on a Griggs apparatus as well as a newly developed high pressure and high temperature deformation apparatus, which is able to conduct deformation experiments at confining pressures up to 3 GPa. The candidate will also conduct microstructural analyses on both experimental and natural samples at ScopeM on the ETH Hönggerberg campus. The candidate will report their findings through group meetings, national and international conferences as well as peer-reviewed publications. Profile
