Specific Purpose, Whole-Time Post (4 Years)
Position Summary
This is an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic and motivated individual to join the School of Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences (BEES) as the project manager for the EU funded Doctoral Network “ForMovFluid” - Understanding the formation, movement, and host-rock interaction of upper crustal aqueous fluids on Earth, from rock grain to tectonic plate scales. This European-wide project is aimed at sourcing new mineral deposits to assist the European Union's climate objectives and targets in the mining of materials within the EU. ForMovFluid includes ten European partners and proposes to adopt new and existing laboratory and field techniques in geoscience sub- disciplines to address key knowledge gaps related to fluid flow drivers, pathways, and fluid/rock reactions. The project will also further our understanding of the movement and physio/chemical interaction of aqueous fluids with rocks in a variety of tectonic settings in the Earth's upper crust, and to establish a long-term pan-sector research network that will go on to contribute to European geofluid research and to underpin Europe's raw material and geothermal sectors.
