PhD/Early-Stage Researcher opportunity at Tallinn University of Technology in coastal ocean remote sensing and machine learning. This project, Observing Whitecapping-Driven Wave Dissipation in Coastal Ocean with Synthetic Aperture Radar , focuses on how wave breaking and whitecapping control air–sea momentum exchange, gas transfer, upper-ocean turbulence, and energy dissipation in coastal waters. The research will use Sentinel-1 and other C-/X-band SAR data together with wave-buoy spectra, meteo...

University of Tartu is seeking a postdoc in climate science for the ERC-funded CloudTracker project, led by Professor Velle Toll . The research focuses on aerosol-cloud interactions , including aerosol-polluted cloud tracks, cloud responses to aerosols, and the role of aerosols as cloud condensation nuclei and ice nuclei. The postdoctoral researcher will work on satellite-based cloud retrievals, aerosol dispersion modelling with HYSPLIT , and prediction of unobserved counterfactual unpolluted cl...
