Dear All,

Please share this email with those interested.

  Call for training position (JAE Intro SOMdM 2021) in process understanding of CO2 injection-induced seismicity  

If you are a master's student or planning to enroll in a master's program in geosciences or related fields in Spain,  don't hesitate to apply for this call.

The Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) has opened the call for the JAE Intro SOMdM 2021 programme that aims to publicize the possibilities offered by the Servero Ochoa centers of the CSIC to university students interested in pursuing a research career. The Institute of Environmental Assessment and Water Research (IDAEA) will offer 8 grants. 

One of the research lines proposed for this call is: Process understanding of the seismicity induced by CO2 injection at the Illinois Basin, supervised by Iman Rahimzadeh Kivi and Victor Vilarrasa. 

The candidate will perform her/his research for five consecutive months in the academic year 2021-2022 at the IDAEA-CSIC in a collaborative and enthusiastic environment. During this period, the candidate will learn through research about geologic carbon storage, injection-induced seismicity, numerically simulating related hydromechanical processes, and disseminating the research outputs to the scientific society.   

Learn more about the call and apply for it at https://sede.csic.gob.es/intro2021somdm The deadline is 15 June 2021. 

If you are interested or have any question, you can contact Iman Rahimzadeh Kivi (iman.ra...@idaea.csic.es).
