Ph.D. Opportunity in Re-Os Geochemistry and Stratigraphy

Ph.D. Opportunity in Re-Os Isotope Geochemistry and Stratigraphy of
Ordovician Graptolite Zones in Newfoundland.


We seek a highly motivated and creative Ph.D. student for a
multi-disciplinary project funded by NSF. Innovation and diligence combined
with the ability to assimilate cross-disciplinary literature are essential.
The primary goal is the Re-Os dating of graptolites in a detailed
biostratigraphic context. The student will be based with the AIRIE Program
at Colorado State University, with a competitive stipend for at least two
years.

The Re-Os work will dovetail with field studies, sequence stratigraphy, and
graptolite taxonomy spearheaded by S. Egenhoff and J. Maletz and a PhD
student focused on the stratigraphy.
