Remote sensing postdoctoral opening in Canada
The Remote Sensing and GIScience Lab at the School of Geography & Earth Sciences, McMaster University, ON, Canada (PI Alemu Gonsamo) is recruiting a postdoctoral fellow to map C storage and distribution in terrestrial ecosystems of Canada. The postdoctoral fellow will develop and validate new mechanisms based on existing efforts to upscale ground inventories of forest and soil measurements to spatially resolved grids. In addition to soil property inventories, the project will use multi-satellite observations (LIDAR, optical and SAR) and ground measurements for spatially resolved mapping of soil and standing biomass carbon stocks in terrestrial ecosystems of Canada at 1 km spatial resolution for a select reference year.
