[ES_JOBS_NET] Postdoc and PhD positions in remote sensing of ecosystems at Virginia Tech

[Kang, Yanghui]

Apologies for cross-posting!



Prof. Yanghui Kang’s group at Virginia Tech is actively recruiting postdoctoral researchers and a PhD student to join us, exploring remote sensing, ecosystem dynamics in natural and managed systems, and AI.



~Postdoctoral Researcher Positions~:

We are looking for postdoctoral researchers to contribute to a NASA-funded project focused on the comprehensive monitoring of nature-based climate solutions. This research will integrate remote sensing and eddy covariance data with machine learning. Prior experience with remote sensing and machine learning, particularly deep learning, is highly preferred. The researchers will also have the opportunity to pursue their own areas of interest, with example topics including satellite image fusion via deep learning, eddy covariance data upscaling, agroecosystem modeling and monitoring, and vegetation-climate interactions. A full job description is here: https://careers.pageuppeople.com/968/cw/en-us/job/531194/postdoctoral-research-associate

The review will begin on Nov 10th and continue until the positions are filled. To apply, please send a cover letter and CV to Yanghui Kang at yanghuikang at vt.edu<mailto:yanghuikang at vt.edu>



~PhD student~:

We are seeking a fully funded PhD student to start in Fall 2025, interested in areas of remote sensing of ecosystems, agroecosystem modeling and monitoring, vegetation-climate interactions, and AI. The PhD student will have the opportunity to explore a broad range of research topics and develop the mindsets and skills necessary for conducting independent research within a dynamic and collaborative team. Interested candidate may send their CV, unofficial transcript, and a brief description of interests to Yanghui Kang at yanghuikang at vt.edu<mailto:yanghuikang at vt.edu>





Thanks, and best regards,

Yanghui
