Biography
I am interested in utilizing remote sensing and geospatial techniques for environmental monitoring and assessment. My specific interests are satellite imagery time series and GIS spatial analysis with a strong focus on land use and land cover change.
**We are offering one postdoc and/or one PhD position focused on remote sensing of agriculture land use change as part of our NASA-funded project**
