Postdoctoral Researcher in Satellite-Based Monitoring of Shipping Emissions

We seek a Postdoctoral Researcher to develop innovative methods for detecting and quantifying emissions from individual ships using satellite observations. Based in Wageningen, you will work at the interface of satellite remote sensing, atmospheric chemistry, atmospheric modelling, and inverse methods. The role involves combining TROPOMI NO₂ observations, AIS-based ship activity, meteorological data, and atmospheric models to identify ship plumes and estimate NOₓ emissions. You will contribute to projects AVES II and CAMS2_53c, develop plume detection methods, and scale analyses to large datasets while publishing results in international journals. The position is embedded in the Meteorology and Air Quality (MAQ) group at Wageningen University & Research, offering a collaborative and interdisciplinary research environment.
