PhD position in 'Remote sensing of macrozoobenthos in tidal systems' Utrecht University http://ssl1.peoplexs.com/Peoplexs22/CandidatesPortalNoLogin/Vacancy.cfm?PortalID=4063&VacatureID=1127830&Vacancy=PhD%20position%20in%20%27Remote%20sensing%20of%20macrozoobenthos%20in%20tidal%20systems%27%20%281%2E0%20FTE%29#top FunctieAs part of a collaborative project between Utrecht University (UU) and the Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research (NIOZ), we seek an enthusiastic candidate for a PhD position within the field of remote sensing of tidal systems. It is a position within the project 'Looking from space to the lower levels of the foodweb in wadden systems', awarded by the Dutch Research Council (NWO). This project aims to monitor macrozoobenthos with remote sensing in intertidal systems. Tidal flats serve as a nursery area for fish and a staging area for migratory birds, for which availability of macrozoobenthos is crucial for their food security. The status o

Graduate Research Associate Positions: Remote Sensing and Data Analytics for Sustainable Agriculture The Ohio State University The AgSensing Lab (ASL) in the Department of Food, Agricultural and Biological Engineering at the Ohio State University is recruiting 1 M.S. and 1 PhD students starting in Spring or Fall of 2021 to work in the areas of remote sensing and data analytics for sustainable agriculture. The ASL focuses on understanding the implications of agricultural practices on ecosystem services (such as crop and soil health) at both field and landscape scales, using remote sensing (i.e., satellite and drone) technologies, ecosystem models and machine learning methods. Some of the current research projects include (1) crop yield assessment at a field scale; (2) mapping of cover crops and the impact on water quality and greenhouse gas emissions, (3) application of drone technologies for precision agriculture, and (4) satellite based monitoring of water quality. ASL also closely c

PhD position: Remote Sensing in Hydrology Georgia Institute of Technology Start date: January 2021. A PhD position is available in the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech). The position is part of the project "Soil Moisture Dynamics And Water Fluxes In The Amazon Basin During Dry Periods And Droughts-An Application of SMAP Observations" funded by NASA. The successful applicant will join the Prof. Jingfeng Wang research group and will collaborate with project partners at JPL (Andreas Colliander) and the LBNL (Robinson Negron-Juarez). The main objective of the project is to produce process-based algorithms to improve SMAP soil moisture observations in the Amazon using extensive field data. Experience in field campaigns, excellent communication and writing skills, and programing knowledge (Fortran and python) are needed for this position. Trips to the Amazon rain forest will be part of this position too. Please check

PhD Position Historical Changes of Antarctic Glaciers from Photogrammetry TU Delft https://www.tudelft.nl/over-tu-delft/werken-bij-tu-delft/vacatures/details/?jobId=1172&jobTitle=PhD%20Position%20Historical%20Changes%20of%20Antarctic%20Glaciers%20from%20Photogrammetry Job description The Antarctic Peninsula is one of the fastest changing regions on our planet, and experienced a warming unparalleled anywhere else in the Southern Hemisphere in the late-20th century. Several ice shelves along its margins have retreated or disintegrated, leading to rapid changes of the glaciers on its mainland. Due to its relatively small scale and complex topography, a detailed picture of the mass balance of the region was missing until the recent advent of high-resolution satellite observations. While these data revealed that the Peninsula is losing ice rapidly, a long-term perspective of the changes is still lacking. In this project, you will unlock the potential of a vast archive of aerial photogra
