Tenure-track positions in Carbon Cycle, Vegetation Remote Sensing and Data Assimilation Science at the International Institute for Earth System Science, Nanjing University

The International Institute for Earth System Science (ESSI) at Nanjing University is internationally renowned and one of the leading institute in remote sensing and global change fields within China, situated in one of China’s elite universities.

1. Position descriptions

ESSI is looking forward to welcoming global young talents to join us in teaching and research related to remote sensing and global change science at Nanjing University. There is 1 tenure-track assistant professor opening in two academic fields: Data Assimilation Science, Ecosystem Model, Vegetation Remote Sensing, and Global Change Ecology. Details are listed below.

(1) Data Assimilation Science: applicants will be engaged in teaching and scientific research related to data assimilation in carbon cycle, development of global carbon assimilation system. Education and research background in interdisciplinary atmospheric science, geography or geosciences is required.

(2) Vegetation Remote Sensing: applicants will be engaged in the teaching and scientific research related to remote sensing of vegetation, vegetation radiative transfer and the application of remote sensing in global carbon cycle. Education and research background in geography, remote sensing science, and atmospheric science is required.

ESSI was formally established on November 19, 2000, among the first of “Specialty Science Fields” created in Nanjing University, with the following mission:

(1) To uncover mechanisms underlying interactions among human activities, resources, and the environment, by using technologies such as remote-sensing and geographic information system, so as to provide the necessary scientific basis for the making of national policies and strategic decisions addressing ever-severer resource shortage, environmental degradation, global change and other contemporary global issues;
