Research Fellow

We seek an experienced interdisciplinary scientist with expertise in remote sensing, agricultural science, and atmospheric knowledge to support the development of an agricultural inventory, a natural hazard data archive, and the analysis of linkages between natural hazards and agricultural yields across Southeast Asia. The role will also involve projecting the future impacts of various weather and climate extremes on agricultural productivity.

**Job Responsibility**
- Develop a high-resolution, remote sensing-based agricultural inventory for Southeast Asia, capturing both spatial and temporal variability.
- Establish an observational data archive that integrates major types of weather and climate extremes affecting agricultural yields.
- Analyze model output, perform statistical analysis and provide interpretation and recommendations.
- Collaborate with cross-functional government agencies and research teams to collect and analyze atmospheric and climatological data.
- Provide scientific input and support to other ongoing projects.
- Publish scientific papers and present at relevant conferences.

**Job Requirement**
- Ph.D. in Remote Sensing, Agricultural Science, Computer Science, Atmospheric Science or a related field.
- Strong experience with physical-based and machine learning methods in atmospheric science.
- Proficiency in Linux-based high-performance computing systems, GPU-based programming and prevailing AI tools.
- Experience in urban climate studies, specifically the urban boundary layer, heat island effects, air pollution, and building energy consumption.
- Strong programming skills in languages such as Python, R, IDL or MATLAB.
- Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills.
- Ability to work independently and as part of a team.

**Benefits**
