The Ocean Ecology Laboratory at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC)
is seeking a postdoctoral candidate to support the activities of the
PACE science team in the area of atmospheric correction for
hyperspectral ocean color remote sensing. PACE is a future NASA
polar-orbiting mission that is expected to carry a hyperspectral
radiometer measuring from the UV to the near-infrared, with additional
channels in the shortwave infrared. PACE may also carry a multi-angle
polarimeter.  Potential research includes:

1) development of PACE proxy data from existing hyperspectral airborne
sensors (e.g., AVIRIS, PRISM) and spaceborne sensors (e.g., HICO,
Hyperion, SCHIAMACHY), or data from radiative transfer simulations

2) development, implementation, and evaluation of atmospheric correction
methods to retrieve hyperspectral water-leaving reflectance from
observed or simulated top-of-atmosphere radiances.

The successful candidate will interface with the staff of the Ocean
Biology Processing Group (OBPG) at NASA/GSFC, and work under the
guidance of Bryan Franz who is a Principal Investigator on the current
PACE Science Team.  The position is for 1 year with potential extension,
to be filled as soon as possible.  The ideal candidate will have
experience with multi-spectral or hyperspectral aircraft and/or
spacecraft remote sensing data, knowledge of atmospheric correction
methods or atmospheric radiative transfer in UV to SWIR, and strong
computer programming and analysis skills.
