Design deep learning-based methodologies for tree line mapping and analyze tree line dynamics in space and time
Forecast treeline potential evolution using ecological statistical and mechanistic models based on land-use and climate change scenarios
Organize and run co-creation workshops with relevant stakeholders
Develop tools for visualization and forest management
Write publications
Attend international conferences, both in ecology and remote sensing
Participate in the educational activities of the ENAC faculty.

Profile

You have a master’s degree in environmental science and / or computer science
You have experience with remote sensing, ecological modeling and population ecology
You are proficient in Python coding and deep learning frameworks
You are fluent in English
You are motivated, curious, and willing to work in a highly dynamic team
