We are looking for a Postdoctoral researcher in Remote Sensing for Evapotranspiration to join the Efficient Use of Water in Agriculture Program team, based in Lleida. We offer the opportunity to be part of an organization with a dynamic, collaborative work environment focused on professional development.
The successful candidate will contribute to research projects focused on the development and application of remote sensing approaches for estimating evapotranspiration and improving water use efficiency in agricultural systems. The work will involve the processing and analysis of multi-source remote sensing data, including satellite and high-resolution imagery, the generation of vegetation and biophysical indicators, and the integration of remote sensing products with field measurements, eddy covariance data and integration into hydrological models. The position will combine methodological development with applied research, aiming to develop innovative solutions for sustainable irrigation management and the transfer of scientific knowledge to the agricultural sector.
Head of the Program:
Dr Joaquim Bellvert
Program’s key researcher/s for this position: Dr Jaume Casadesús & Dr Víctor Blanco.
Tasks and Responsibilities:
To contribute to research activities focused on the use of remote sensing and Earth observation technologies for improving the assessment and management of water use in agricultural systems, with particular emphasis on evapotranspiration estimation and use of hydrological models.
To research remote sensing, environmental and ground-based data integration approaches, including: processing and analysis of multi-source satellite imagery at different spatial and temporal resolutions, generation and evaluation of vegetation biophysical parameters, development and application of remote sensing surface energy balance models (e.g. TSEB) to estimate ET and its partition components in different woody crops, processing and analysis of eddy covariance, sap-flow a
