ORAU
Application of Remote Sensing and High Resolution Models to the Coastal Oceans
ORAU, Pasadena, California, United States, 91122
Overview
The NASA Postdoctoral Program (NPP) offers unique research opportunities to highly-talented scientists to engage in ongoing NASA research projects at a NASA Center, NASA Headquarters, or at a NASA-affiliated research institute. These one- to three-year fellowships are competitive and are designed to advance NASA’s missions in space science, Earth science, aeronautics, space operations, exploration systems, and astrobiology. Description
The opportunity seeks a qualified postdoctoral candidate to apply remote sensing data and high resolution models to the coastal regions. The overall goal is to better understand the processes leading to coastal upwelling and the temporal and spatial variability from the seasonal to climate scale. Organization
