2 Postdoc positions with NOAA STAR- sea ice remote sensing.
There are 2 postdoc opportunities on remote sensing of sea ice and polar oceans to work with NOAA's Center for Satellite Applications & Research (STAR), its science teams, and satellite product end-users, such as the U.S. National Ice Center.
. Opportunities 23-131 requires expertise in satellite altimetry for sea ice studies. The incumbent will address the validation of an innovative algorithm for microwave altimeter-based sea-ice freeboard relevant for numerous applications such as sea ice forecasting and ice charting for navigation safety. This has already been posted on cryolist in August by Laurence Connor.
. Opportunities 23-134 requires expertise in polar ocean remote sensing, with a focus on sea ice. The incumbent will assess remote sensing sea ice information products from different sensors and with various maturity levels, contributing to increasing existing products’ accessibility and usability. The work will lead to analysis-ready and AI-ready data for studying the polar regions.
NOAA STAR is located in College Park, Maryland. Employment and benefits are offered by the NOAA Cooperative Institute for Research in the Atmosphere (CIRA), managed by Colorado State University (CSU). By design, the full position descriptions are rather broad to allow for the selection of emerging talents who would complement and strengthen our science teams.
Please, reach out with any questions. We'll be happy to discuss and learn more about you and your work.
Cheers,
Laurence Connor (laurence.connor@noaa.gov), team lead for Sea Ice & Polar Dynamics
