vor 2 Monaten
The Helmholtz Centre Potsdam - GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences is the national centre for research into the geosphere. With around 1,650 employees, we develop a sound understanding of systems and processes of the solid Earth as well as strategies and options for action to counter global change, understand natural hazards and sustainably secure energy and raw material requirements.
For section 2.5 "Geodynamic Modeling" (department “Geophysics”), we are looking for a:
Postdoctoral researcher (f_m_x) - Tsunami Modeling Project MULTI-MAREX
**Reference Number 9811**:
As part of the research mission 'Marine Extreme Events and Natural Hazards' of the German Marine Research Alliance (DAM), the joint project MULTI-MAREX will establish a living lab for the investigation of marine geological extreme events and associated hazards in Greece. Extreme geomarine events, including earthquakes and volcanogenic or seismogenic tsunamis and their cascading events, have serious short
- and long-term consequences for coastal communities. Early warning and disaster prevention pose both societal and political challenges for which the joint project is developing the necessary expertise to deal with these hazards at various levels.
**Your responsibilities**:
- De-aggregation of the NEAMTHM18 PTHA model at the selected hot-spots
- Re-assessment and refinement of the hot-spots relevant tsunamigenic sources - earthquakes and landslides - with incorporation of geological and geophysical data
- Building and running set of probabilistic scenarios taylored to the hot-spots
- Conveying simulation results to cooperating teams working on inundations and VR-scenarios
- Publishing results
**Your qualifications**:
- MSc (or equivalent) and PhD in Earth Science, with focus on geophysics
- Knowledge of tsunamigenic sources - earthquakes, landslides - and tsunamis: their physics, ways of detection and observation, numerical aspects
- Experience in numerical modeling of tsunamis; experience with HySea is an advantage
- Good skills in Python
- Good written and oral skills in English
**Start date**: 1st January 2025
**Fixed-term**: 18 months
**Salary**: Die Stelle ist nach TVöD Bund (Tarifgebiet Ost) mit der Entgeltgruppe 13 bewertet. Die Eingruppierung erfolgt nach den tariflichen Bestimmungen und den entsprechenden persönlichen Voraussetzungen.
