Data from the Atmospheric Space Interaction Monitor (ASIM) on the ISS will also be utilized.

The position is for 3 years, with a possible extension, starting ideally in September 2025. The employment includes full social security coverage.

Interested candidates should apply via email. The deadline is July 10, 2025.

The gross monthly salary is €1600, with 14 payments annually. Living expenses in Granada are relatively low. Applicants planning to complete their Master by September 2025 are encouraged to apply, provided they register as doctoral students at the University of Granada by then.
