As Research Associate to both the Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Group and Edinburgh Seismic Research, two large and leading research groups, you will plan and undertake world-class research on geophysical methods for monitoring subsurface CO2 storage reservoirs. The focus will be on developing cost-effective geophysical methods to evaluate prospective subsurface storage sites rapidly and to monitor subsurface reservoirs after CO2 injection. You will be expected to publish ground-breaking research papers in peer-reviewed journals, you will have the opportunity to transfer your novel methods to other industrial and academic project partners, and you will help to prepare bids for funding future research and development in related areas. You will have a PhD in Geophysics, Geoengineering, Geomechanics, or another highly pertinent area of the GeoSciences or Applied Physics. You will be prepared to provide geophysical leadership to this multi-disciplinary, multi-partner project, and will be ready to hit the ground running in this demanding and fast-moving field.
