Ground- and Space-Based Remote Sensing

Due: May 1, 2025

$82,764

Description

Research opportunities are available to advance ground-, air-, and space-based measurements of the Earth’s radiation, ocean color, temperature, aerosol levels, and other physical environmental variables. Such measurements require high accuracy to meet the stringent demands of climate research, land and environmental monitoring, and weather prediction. In collaboration with NASA, NOAA, and the USGS, NIST develops technology to advance the calibration and characterization of ground- and space-based infrared, optical, and temperatur...

Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.
