The successful candidate will be expected to develop a spectralmethod to compute the tides of radially-stratified, laterally-heterogeneousbodies using tensor spherical harmonics that is computationally efficient anddoes not rely on perturbation theory; and to investigate how lateral heterogeneities alter the tidally-inducedsurface displacement and gravity fields to investigate if their amplitude andwavelength can be inferred from satellite observations.
