GEOG*2460 Analysis in Geography
I am seeking motivated graduate students with a strong background in Remote Sensing to work on topics relating to optical and SAR remote sensing, ecosystem change dynamics and disaster monitoring. The following positions are currently available in my research group:
• Developing hydrometeorological risk indicators in Southwestern Ontario using remote sensing imagery (MSc; Spring 2021)
• Investigating spatio-temporal trends in wetland inundation and connectivity using satellite SAR and optical data (MSc; Spring or Fall 2021)
• Characterizing wetland disturbance-recovery dynamics using multi-source satellite data (PhD; Spring or Fall 2021)
Please contact me at bdv@uoguelph.ca for a more detailed discussion on these projects. Interested candidates are encouraged to send me a resume/CV, a statement of interest and unofficial transcripts.
