One or more graduate and postdoctoral positions are available in the Department of Geology & Geophysics at Yale University to support research on integrative approaches to tectonics, thermo- or geochronometry, and geomorphology. For the postdoctoral positions, we are especially interested in individuals with experience in applying dating techniques to regional tectono-geomorphic problems with integrated geodynamic models. Potential projects include orogenic evolution of the Northern Apennines, development and application of multi-method dating using (U-Th)/He and (U-Th)/Pb systems, erosion rates in the Rocky Mountains, detrital thermochronology in orogenic drainages, study of age-elevation relationships, study of cooling age patterns on large normal faults, etc. Contact Peter Reiners ([log in to unmask]) or Mark Brandon ([log in to unmask]) for more information. Department website: http://www.geology.yale.edu/. Send statements of research interests and goals and contact information for three references by December 23rd 2002. _________________________________________ Peter W.
