瑞士伯尔尼大学2022年招聘博士后职位（遥感研究）

Postdoctoral Position

University of Bern

Description

The Remote Sensing Research Group (RSGB) at the Institute of Geography, University of Bern, Switzerland has an opening of a PostDoc position on remote sensing of snow extent (SE). This position is part of a project funded by the European Space Agency (ESA) in the frame of the Climate Change Initiative (CCI) program. The successful candidate will contribute to the ESA CCI+ snow project starting 1.May 2022. The goal of the project is to implement/develop a snow extent time series (1978 – 2023) at global and continental scale retrieved from (Advanced) Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR and VHRR) data. The main focus of the research position will be on algorithm development, (pre-) processing of AVHRR GAC and LAC data, and development of uncertainty measures. The researcher should also contribute to the project reports required by ESA. In addition, a close collaboration with the team members of the international CCI+ snow consortium and RSGB scientists is expected. The PostDoc position of the ESA CCI+ project is funded for a duration of 30 months.
