Post-doctoral position in geophysical data integration
A position as a post-doctoral researcher is available at the Dublin Institute for Advanced
Studies (DIAS). The research project is aimed at developing inversion strategies to combine
complementary geophysical datasets. Recently, new, large, complementary geophysical
datasets have emerged that will allow the determination of the compositional and thermal
structure of Ireland’s crust and lithosphere: an island-wide 3-D electrical conductivity
structure of the lower crust and uppermost mantle are imaged using both legacy and newly
acquired long-period magnetotelluric data, and seismic wave tomography images of the
crust and upper mantle beneath Ireland are built from the abundant broadband seismic data
over the past decade. The main focus of the post-doc will be on implementing an inversion
approach to integrate these electrical conductivity and velocity datasets including potential
field data.
The successful candidate will be part of the Electromagnetic Research group working with
Dr Duygu Kiyan and will be in close collaboration with the Seismology groups at DIAS.
The mandatory requirements for the position are listed below:
- Holding a PhD in Geophysics or a closely relative field
- Experience working with modelling and inversion methods in geophysics
- Demonstrable experience in computer programming for scientific applications The position is available until December 2020 inclusive, with the preferred start date of October 1st, 2019. The gross salary will be €38,860. Deadline for applications is September 12th. Potential candidates are required to send a cover letter outlining their research interests, motivation and suitability for the position and a full CV with contact details of two referees via e-mail to geo_recruitment@cp.dias.ie using the subject line “Postdoc Application”. For additional information on the project or working at DIAS please contact Duygu Kiyan (duygu@cp.dias.ie). DIAS is an Equal Opportunities Employer.
This project is part of the Irish Centre for Research in Applied Geoscience, funded under the SFI Research Centres Programme and is co-funded under the European Regional Development Fund.

The Annals of Connacht is a vellum manuscript that was written in the mid-16th century. The contents were derived from older annals compiled for the O’Conors of the Connacht and contain an annual record of significant events over 320 years, and... (2/3)
Date: 19 October 1944 Paper: The Irish Press Synopsis: DIAS has been publishing books since it's founding. One such early publication is the edited manuscript of the Annals of Connacht (Annála Connacht) which was edited for the first time by Martin Freeman of DIAS. (1/3)
This work was to help towards the preservation of the Irish Language, to maintain it's continuity with the past, and was to become a resource for teachers to check pronunciation #DIASdiscovers #Irish #Irishlanguage #CelticStudies #Gaelic
The researchers used the International Phonetic Alphabet, slightly modified to represent vowels and consonants of living speech. At that time there were concerns over the deterioration of the Irish language due to the "overpowering influence of English"
Date: 02 June 1943 Paper: The Irish Press Synopsis: In 1943, a phonetic investigation led by Brian Ó Cuív, Risteárd B. Breathnach and Tomás de Bhaldraithe of DIAS would begin the first systematic scientific recording of the varied sounds of modern Gaelic speech.

The papers were 1) Affine Field Theory: conservation identitites and relation to Weyl and Eddington 2)The Union of the three fundamental fields (Gravitation, Menson, Electromagnetism) Which went on to secure worldwide acclaim. #DIASdiscovers

"In the lives of St. Patrick, the two saints are invariably fused into one", said Prof. O'Rahilly in his lecture. The lecture was a condensation from O’Rahilly’s book “The two Patricks: a lecture on the history of Christianity in fifth-century Ireland”. (4/5)
He was known by his first name Patricius, which in later times would lead to confusion as he was succeeded by another apostle of the same name (Saint Patrick or Patricius in Latin). (3/5)
He spoke on "Palladius and Patrick". Palladius was the first bishop of the Christians of Ireland. (2/5)
Date: 21st March 1942 Paper: The Irish Press Headline: Palladius and Patrick | School Of Celtic Studies Lecture Synopsis: The first public lecture under the auspices of the School of Celtic Studies was delivered in Trinity College by Professor T. F. O'Rahilly in 1942. (1/5)
As part of our ongoing participation in the @HistFest we decided to take a look into the Irish Newspaper Archives and see where DIAS made it into print over the last 80 years. There were so many articles, the hardest part was selecting what we would post. We hope you enjoy!
@AReillyFailte @CultureNight @VisitDublin Thanks Antoinette! Glad you enjoyed 😊
