Doctoral student in induced and natural seismicity forecasting

ETH Zürich is well known for its excellent education, ground‑breaking fundamental research and for implementing its results directly into practice. The Swiss Seismological Service (SED) at the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences (D‑EAPS) is seeking a motivated doctoral student to work at the intersection of statistical seismology and machine learning. This position is part of two EU‑funded projects: GeoTwins, which focuses on creating digital twins for geothermal systems, and Earth‑AID, which aims to develop an AI‑powered decision‑support system for geohazards. The position will contribute to advancing earthquake forecasting and risk management and improve our ability to mitigate induced seismicity in real time.

Responsibilities

• Model Integration: Incorporate state‑of‑the‑art models, specifically ETAS‑f and Oracle, into SED's forecast management and scheduling system.
