A Postdoc position in marine remote sensing and modelling of the preservation and decay of underwater archaeological sites is offered in the Environmental Archaeology and Materials Science Section at the National Museum of Denmark. The successful candidate will work with acquisition and post processing of marine high resolution acoustic remote sensing data, which will be used to model the factors affecting the preservation and decay of underwater archaeological sites. This will be as part of the European Research Council funded project ENDURE, working with the grant holder, Senior Researcher David Gregory. The research project is inherently interdisciplinary and the applicant will be part of a collaborative team whose main goal is to develop an understanding of the decay processes of underwater archaeological sites, including shipwrecks and submerged prehistoric sites, in order to sustainably manage and preserve them. The research area lies at the intersection of marine geoarchaeology and cultural resource management.
