Description
About the
NASA Postdoctoral Program
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:
NASA's POWER (Prediction Of Worldwide renewable Energy Resources) Project provides customized data parameters from NASA's CERES (Clouds and Earth's Radiant Energy System) mission, GEWEX Surface Radiative Budget project and the GMAO (Global Modeling and Assimilation Office) atmospheric reanalysis assimilation projects for the renewable energy including solar, sustainable building/architecture, and agricultural societal benefit areas. To provide trusted data for decision making, basic and applied research is carried out which requires continuous innovation in improving the accuracies of existing datasets and in developing new datasets relevant to the user communities.
This opportunity is for highly motivated candidates who are interested in the following areas of POWER’s research work: applying innovative methods to satellite (e.g CERES Cloud products, TEMPO) and model datasets for developing higher resolution data products and their evaluation using surface measurements and/or satellite-based data products, assessing the variability of these data products in space and time, working with end users in identifying and developing new on-the-fly data products for solar, wind energy (i.e., like revising battery backup design parameters), and buildings/infrastructure decision support. The use of modern technologies such as machine and deep learning methods, data fusion approaches, and cloud computing is highly encouraged in this research and development area. Opportunities exist for applying these technologies for algorithm optimization to contribute to the above work. Candidates who have experience in utilizing satellite and/or modeling datasets mentioned above, and have advanced programming skills (e.g. Python, C, Cloud computing etc.) are strongly encouraged to apply.
