ESA is an equal opportunity employer, committed to achieving diversity within the workforce and creating an inclusive working environment. Applications from women are encouraged. Post Young Graduate Trainee for Land Surface Dynamics Study This post is classified F1. Location ESTEC, Noordwijk, The Netherlands Our team and mission The Earth & Mission Science Division of the Science Applications & Climate Department, Earth Observations Programmes Directorate, is based at the European Space Research and Technology Centre (ESTEC). The Division provides the creative vision for innovation and new discoveries in Earth System Science, using Earth observation in close cooperation with the scientific community. The Division team: bridges science and technology by translating ideas and concepts into technical reality and scientific success. It does this by defining, consolidating and managing scientific mission requirements throughout all phases of a mission, and by measuring the maturity of the resulting mission concept; manages scientific research-based studies, providing the scientific foundation for mission concepts and approval, supports the successful development of space and ground segment, in-orbit commissioning and in-orbit scientific achievements; undertakes airborne, marine and terrestrial campaigns contributing to the development of new technologies, mission feasibility assessments, calibration/validation and application development. The Division is responsible for supporting preparatory research & development and implementation of future concepts for EO satellite missions as part of ESA's Living Planet Programme (Earth Explorers Aeolus, BIOMASS, CryoSat, EarthCARE, FLEX, FORUM, GOCE, SMOS, Swarm; Earth Watch/Copernicus Sentinels; operational meteorological satellite missions) with the objective of achieving specific scientific goals in environmental and climate research and Earth System Science. Candidates interested are encouraged to visit the ESA website: http://www.esa.int Field(s) of activity For land surface applications, the fast-growing number of Earth-observing satellites and consequently available remote-sensing data sets requires us to assess how to combine such data streams efficiently. Similarly to what has been done in numerical weather prediction and modelling, the use of data assimilation techniques is a promising method for studying land surface dynamics and variability. The recent revolution in land surface process modelling allows us to assimilate data sets from spaceborne assets into currently available Land Surface Process Models (LSPMs). https://career2.successfactors.eu/xi/ui/rcmcommon/pages/jobReqP…%20Study&insertTitle=true&_s.crb=lWza44fko6ofJrmDYKkrRsho4pY%3d Page 1 of 2 Job Description Print Preview 15/11/2019, 1140 The Agency recently undertook activity to develop a prototype retrieval chain exploiting the synergy between optical and radar time series data (from Copernicus Sentinel-1 and -2) focused on agriculture. To progress the work from this activity, the Agency is currently developing a multi-year national-size data set including Sentinel-1 radar signatures together with parcel information (e.g., parcel dimension, land use, crop information). The study will start by exploring the information content of this data set, trying to uncover specific crop-specific correlations comparing the parcel information on a national scale, which may need to involve machine-learning techniques. Such information is expected to be of great help to constrain the microwave forward model that will need to be adapted within the LSPM. Following such adaptation, the study will continue with the inclusion of Sentinel-2 temporal signatures within the data set. The remainder of the study will focus on assimilating data from this data set into an LSPM environment. Technical competencies Knowledge of relevant technical domains Relevant experience gained during internships/project work Breadth of exposure coming from past and/or current research/activities Knowledge of ESA and its programmes/projects Behavioural competencies Self Motivation Communication Continuous Learning Cross-Cultural Sensitivity Teamwork Education You should have just completed, or be in the final year of a university course at Master's level (or equivalent) in a technical or scientific discipline. Additional requirements The working languages of the Agency are English and French. A good knowledge of one of these is required. Knowledge of another Member State language would be an asset.

    Research. Innovation. Sustainability PLANS FOR A NEW WAVE OF EUROPEAN SENTINEL SATELLITES The most ambitious and comprehensive plans ever for the European space sector, were approved at the end of 2019, with a total budget of ¤14.5 billion for the European Space Agency for the next three years – a 20% increase over the previous three-year budget. The decision allows a direct uplift to Europe’s Earth observation capability, expanding Copernicus – the European Union’s flagship Earth observation programme – with a suite of new, high-priority satellite missions. In this explainer we delve into the improvements and what they mean for sustainability and climate science. What is the Copernicus Programme? Copernicus is the European Union’s Earth observation programme, coordinated by the European Commission in partnership with the European Space Agency (ESA), EU Member States and other EU Agencies. Established in 2014, it builds on ESA’s Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) programme. Copernicus encompasses a system of satellites, airborne data, and ground stations supplying global monitoring data and operational services on a free-of-charge basis across six themes: atmosphere, marine, land, climate, emergency response and security. The Sentinel System – new and improved At the centre of the programme sits the Copernicus Space Component, which includes a family of satellites known collectively as Sentinels. These spacecraft provide routine atmospheric, oceanic, cryosphere and land global monitoring data, which are made freely available for Copernicus Services and major research and commercial applications such as precision farming, environmental hazards monitoring, weather forecasting and climate resilience. The soon-to-be-expanded Sentinel system will incorporate six high-priority missions.
