The main objectives of the research project are (i) to improve the precision of diagnostic models of forest-atmosphere carbon exchange using flux measurements, forest biometric data, and remote sensing of forest characteristics, and (ii) to develop new methods for the characterization of uncertainty in regional carbon flux estimates. Research will focus on northern forests of North America.
The successful candidate should have a strong background in one or more
of the following areas: statistics, terrestrial ecosystem modeling, Bayesian
analysis, remote sensing of ecosystems, observational studies of the carbon
cycle, and climate sciences. Strong communications skills are required.
