佛罗里达大学Geomatics专业招收PhD学生

Graduate Research Assistant in Geodesy, Geophysics, and Remote Sensing (Fall 2023)



The School of Forest, Fisheries, and Geomatics Sciences (SFFGS), University of Florida, is seeking self-motivated candidates for a Graduate Research Assistant (Ph.D. student) position, with the earliest starting date in Fall 2023 (Fall deadline - January 1, Spring deadline - September 1). Successful candidates will join Dr. Chunli Dai's team, working on funded research projects in the general area of geodesy.

The main ongoing projects in Dai's group include:
1) coseismic deformation study using various remote sensing data (GPS, InSAR, satellite imagery, satellite gravimetry)
2) landslide detection and machine learning using digital elevation models
3) coastline mapping from satellite imagery
4) groundwater and regional subsidence monitoring from satellite gravimetry
5) geoid determination from various gravity and leveling data.



In particular, self-motivated individuals who have research experience/interests in one or more of the following areas are strongly encouraged to apply:
• Physical geodesy, satellite geodesy, and remote sensing techniques (InSAR, GPS, GRACE, satellite photogrammetry, etc)
• Geophysics and solid earth deformation (coseismic deformation, coastal subsidence, etc)

To apply:
Please email Dr. Chunli Dai (chunlidai at ufl.edu) with a detailed CV, including your transcripts (GPA), scores of TOEFL (or IELTS), and GRE, if applicable and available.
