PhD studentship - Remote Sensing, Leicester, U.K.
Applications are invited for a full-time, fully-funded 3 year PhD studentship in the Department of Geography, University of Leicester, addressing the impact of deforestation on the global carbon cycle. Specifically, this studentship will investigate use of high resolution remote sensing for monitoring and assessing tropical deforestation and degradation as a contribution to reducing atmospheric greenhouse gas emissions under the REDD carbon trading initiative. The studentship is funded under the NERC National Centre for Earth Observation (NCEO). The student will be based in Leicester and supervised by Dr Susan Page and Dr Kevin Tansey, but will work closely with others involved in NCEO, and will be required to undertake fieldwork in SE Asia, probably in Indonesia.
Application deadline: 20 June 2008 (anticipated interview date 30 June 2008)
