PhD Position in Physics of the Earth (f/m/d) – part-time 75% Full PhD

Doctorat / PhD Type de poste : Full PhD Financement : yes Date limite de candidature : 30. Nov 2026 Date de début : as soon as possible Durée : as soon as possible for 3 years Langue de travail : English Diplôme requis : Master

PhD Position in Physics of the Earth (f/m/d) – part-time 75% At the Geophysical Institute (GPI) of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and the Black Forest Observatory (BFO). 🌍 Curious to understand how the atmosphere above your head kneads the Earth's crust beneath your feet? We are looking for a motivated researcher to investigate how atmospheric forces deform the Earth's crust. A unique appeal of this position is that you will experience the entire chain of a scientific investigation: * 🛰️ Field Work: Designing and operating a large-N barometer network (with ~90 sensors already in the field providing data from day one!) * 💻 Data Analysis, Inversion & Modeling: Developing deterministic, physics-based crustal coupling models (Time series analysis in Python). * 🎯 Application: Deploying your models to significantly improve the signal-to-noise ratio of high-precision deformation measurements. 🎓 Open to Graduates in: Geophysics, Physics, or a related discipline. Excellent fit for physics grads looking for an exciting real-world application! 📅 Apply by: November 30, 2026 📍 Official Job Posting & Application: https://jobs.pse.kit.edu/en/jobs/170984/phd-position-in-physics-of-the-earth-fmd-part-time-75 🔍 Extended Project Info: https://www.black-forest-observatory.de/336.php
