A postdoctoral research position is
available at the Earth Sciences Institute, at the Hebrew University,
Jerusalem, Israel, focusing on understanding basic processes of
submarine landslide triggering, with applications to the Eastern
Mediterranean Sea, offshore Israel. The work will involve numerical
and/or physical modeling, analyzing the mechanisms of submarine
slope-failure. Applicants should send their CV and intention letter
including names of 3 referees, directly to the PIs: Prof. Einat Aharonov
