Subject: Job: PhD grant: Wavelet analysis of strong motion seismograms
The newly founded Graduate School at the University of Potsdam (Germany)
entitled ``Natural Disasters: Generation, Propagation, and Impacts'' invites
applications for a PhD position:
Wavelet based information extraction from strong motion seismograms
Supervisors: M. Holschneider (hols@math.uni-
(gert.zoeller@
In low seismicity regions, e.g. in Western central Europe, the ground motion of
future earthquakes is commonly estimated from regression models, which have
been generated from response spectra of ground motion recorded in seismically
active areas.
In contrast to the Fourier spectrum, the description of a response spectrum
within a simple model is not straightforward. However, for applications in
engineering seismology, the Fourier spectrum has the shortcoming that it does
not provide time localization. This projects aims at the design of a
methodology to combine the advantages of Fourier spectra (physical models)
with those of wavelet based approaches (time localization) for purposes of
seismic hazard assessment.
Applicants must have an above-average Master/Diploma degree or equivalent in
the appropriate Natural Sciences and a good background in modelling and
statistics. The willingness, both to do interdisciplinary research and to
actively participate in the
activities of the Potsdam Graduate School, is a prerequisite for the
application.
Applications, preferably in electronic form, should include a CV, copies of
degree
certificates, and possibly a letter of recommendation. They should be forwarded
to:
Gert Zoeller
Institut fuer Physik
Universitaet Potsdam
Am Neuen Palais 10
D-14469 Potsdam

email: gert.zoeller@
Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the positions
are filled. Equal opportunity is part of our personnel policy. The University
of Potsdam encourages applications from qualified female candidates.
