We are now advertising a fully-funded PhD project. The project will investigate how ice melange in Greenland’s fjords are formed and preserved, then how this impacts marine ecosystems. The project will utilise recent advances in deep learning methodologies to automatically extract key parameters of ice melange characteristics (e.g. extent, iceberg concentrations, velocity) and relate this to data sets on ice discharge. Remote sensing of marine ecosystem change will be related to the machine learning analysis to obtain an holistic view of ice-ocean impacts and it’s relationship with marine ecosystem change.
Please get in touch beforehand if you are interested in applying!
