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.
