A full-time research position is available at the Faculty of
Forestry and Environmental Management, University of New Brunswick.
The project is undertaken in collaboration with the Canadian Centre
of Remote Sensing and Parks Canada. The position is about integrating
vegetation and surficial geology maps within a model designed to
understand and forecast the long-term implications of climate change
for the permafrost extent. The maps will be derived from optical and
SAR imagery. Details on the model can be found in
http://www.agu.org/journals/jd/jd0322/2002JD003354/2002JD003354.pdf.
The position is best suited to someone with a Ph.D. degree, although
exceptional M.Sc. applicants will be considered. Candidates with
experiences in simulation modelling and computing language like MS
Visual C++ will be at significant advantage. Otherwise, the main
qualifications for this position are strong quantitative skills and
an interest in modelling and remote sensing. A working knowledge of
GIS would also be an asset. The position must commence no later than
September 2012. The position is until end of March 2013 (and beyond
depending on candidate performances). The salary will be commensurate
with the qualifications.
Applicants should submit by email a short statement of interest, a
current CV, transcripts and the names of three references before
August, 15th 2012. According to the Canadian regulations, only
Canadian citizens and permanent residents can apply. To apply, or for
further information, contact the undersigned:
