Hi
I'd appreciate you uploading this position post.
All the best
Oz


The Environmental Sensing Laboratory at Ben Gurion University and the Dryland Tree and Ecosystem Ecology lab at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem are recruiting a Ph.D. student for research on

The contribution of green infrastructures to urban carbon sequestration from climate change mitigation

Global efforts are being made to reduce greenhouse gas emissions due to climate change. These efforts are also applied to the urban environment to transform the cities into net-zero carbon emission cities. The research goal is to develop a new measuring platform based on local and remote measurements, to estimate the carbon sequestration of urban green infrastructures.

The successful candidate will gain experience in field studies of CO2 fluxes and in new analytical methods of remote sensing to estimate the CO2 flux balance in urban vegetation.

Background and skills: Candidates should have a B.Sc. and M.Sc. in environmental engineering, remote sensing, ecology, or similar. They must be fluent in English, have excellent communications skills, and have a strong aptitude for scientific writing. Knowledge of a programming language and experience with remote sensing in research are favorable. Students who have first-authored papers will be preferred.

The successful candidate will receive a full scholarship covering living expenses.

The research is a collaboration of Oz Kira (Civil and Environmental Engineering, Ben Gurion University, Israel) and José Grünzweig (Faculty of Agriculture, Food and Environment, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel).

For applying, please send an email containing your CV, grades transcript, publication list, and a letter of intent to ozkira at bgu.ac.il<mailto:ozkira at bgu.ac.il>.
