Post Doctoral Researcher Position in Ocean Color Remote Sensing The ocean color research group within the Earth Observation and Environmental Remote Sensing Lab at Masdar institute is looking for a postdoctoral researcher in the field of coastal ocean color research and applications in turbid atmosphere. We are seeking an outstanding scientist to develop improved ocean color products from the current and future ocean color satellite sensors including SeaWiFS, MODIS, VIIRS and MERIS. The successful candidate will be based at Masdar Institute, Abu Dhabi (UAE). The individual in this position will work on satellite data from various ocean color satellite sensors and field measurements from ocean and atmosphere to develop, validate, and evaluate algorithms for the remote retrieval of the ocean color and atmospheric products. Strong programming skills are required and demonstrated ability to develop and improve algorithms for ocean color and aerosol products. Masdar Institute of Science...
