Applications are now invited for a postdoctoral position at the International Research Institute for Climate and Society (IRI) in Palisades, NY through a NASA Interdisciplinary Research in Earth Science project (Title: Linking Remote Sensing Data and Energy Balance Models for a Scalable Agriculture Insurance System for sub-Saharan Africa). This project brings together climate science, economics, and remote sensing expertise to focus on providing a scalable and sensor-independent remote sensing based product that can be used in agriculture insurance programs. This research seeks to provide a multi-resolution, multi-sensor source of weather and climate information that will enable the scaling up of an agriculture insurance program that provides basic weather-risk financial support.
