Type of Contract: Temporary
Job Status: Part-time

A world-renowned geosciences organisation, the IPGP is associated with the CNRS and an integrated institute of the Université Paris Cité. Bringing together more than 500 people, the IPGP studies the Earth and the planets from the core to the most superficial fluid envelopes, through observation, experimentation and modelling.
The research areas are structured through 4 main unifying themes: Interiors of the Earth and Planets, Natural Hazards, Earth System and Origins.
The IPGP is in charge of labelled observation services in volcanology, seismology, magnetism, gravimetry and erosion. The IPGP's permanent observatories monitor the four active French overseas volcanoes in Guadeloupe, Martinique, Réunion Island and Mayotte.
The IPGP hosts powerful computing resources and state-of-the-art experimental and analytical facilities and benefits from first-class technical support. The IPGP provides its students with geosciences training that combines observation, quantitative analysis and modelling, reflecting the quality, richness and thematic diversity of the research conducted by the IPGP teams.
The Geological Fluid Dynamics group develops and applies the tools of Fluid Mechanics to our Earth and the Solar System Planets. We proceed by physical analogy to model and interpret the available field, observatory and remote sensing data. Doing so allows us to access and extract hidden geophysical information within this data, reconstruct geodynamical evolution scenarios, and predict the future evolution of natural systems, in connection with societal applications. The objects studied within the team range from the deepest parts of planets such as mantle and core, all the way up to surface processes. The methods range from field data acquisition campaigns to lab experiments and high-performance numerical simulations.
Missions
The postdoctoral researcher will develop an experimental setup dedicated to the sediment-transport instability introduced theoretically by Abramian et al. (JFM 2019). She/he will communicate their scientific results in international conferences and write the corresponding scientific articles.
Alluvial rivers build their own bed with the sediment they transport. Laboratory analogues reveal that traveling grains of sediment behave like random walkers—their diffusion across the river opposes gravity to maintain the bed. Theory suggests, however, that this statistical equilibrium can become unstable, thus giving rise to longitudinal patterns. This phenomenon has not been observed yet in an experiment.
The postdoctoral scholar will investigate the stability of bedload transport, in theory and in laboratory experiments. The primary advisors are Olivier Devauchelle (Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris) and Michael Berhanu (Matière et Systèmes Complexes), in close collaboration with Eric Lajeunesse and François Métivier (IPGP).
Expected Skills
Specific training: The candidate will have a Ph.D. in fluid mechanics, statistical physics or a related field. She/he will be a self-directed individual with a taste for laboratory experiments, applied mathematics and/or numerical analysis.
Computer tools: Proficiency in Python or another programming language, LaTeX.
Scientific curiosity, independence in the laboratory & clarity in scientific communication are essential.
Obligations and risks
The person recruited will be entitled to up to 54 working days' leave, depending on his/her weekly working hours. Telecommuting is available at the IPGP, subject to the agreement of the supervisor and the Human Resources Department (up to 2 days a week after 6 months' seniority).
Professional trips: Attendance at international scientific conferences.
Training and experience required
Minimum of 5 years experience.
Education level or diploma: The candidate will have a Ph.D. in fluid mechanics, statistical physics or a related field.
How to apply
This position is open to contract staff. A 1-year fixed-term contract with a 2-month trial period, which may be renewed.
Your application, comprising a CV and covering letter in PDF format, should be sent by e-mail.
An initial selection will be made on the basis of applications. Selected candidates will be interviewed.
