Research Associate III, Delaware Geological Survey
The Delaware
Geological Survey, located at the University of Delaware, invites applications
for a full-time, limited term (2 year) position to participate in an offshore
sand resource characterization and geologic mapping project focused on the Atlantic
offshore Delaware. We are seeking an energetic, motivated scientist
to develop and implement a research plan for offshore geologic mapping,
to include sand resource identification and quantification. Experience in the
collection, compilation, and interpretation of seismic data, sediment core,
seafloor texture, and seafloor morphology are desirable. The position also
requires the analysis and interpretation of complex data using Geographic
Information Systems (GIS), database management, and the development of
metadata. Opportunities for collaboration exist with scientists in the
College of Earth, Oceans, and the Environment (CEOE) who are conducting
research relevant to the objectives of this project. The successful candidate
will also be expected to prepare reports, and coordinate and communicate with
cooperating partners by presenting findings related to potential sand
resources, and interact with Federal, State, and private partners for data
sharing and transfer. The position requires a Bachelor’s degree and
four years’ experience, or Master’s degree and two years’ experience, or
Doctorate, in geology or related field with concentration in marine geology,
geologic mapping, seismic stratigraphy, or resource analysis.
The position
requires work at a computer work station in an office setting, in a sample
processing and examination laboratory, and possible field work aboard a marine
research vessel in open ocean conditions. Job requires some physically
demanding work outdoors in hot/cold/wet conditions, including lifting samples
and equipment up to 50 pounds. Travel to attend meetings with
collaborators, perform field work, and present research in professional forums
is required.
