The training is designed to promote and disseminate EO data and information-based solutions focussing on Arctic Methane and Permafrost. The programme will provide theoretical information followed by practical exercises and will feature the use of Satellite data from different missions together with airborne and ground based data together with process modelling.
The course is intended for researchers, students, PhD students and young professionals who use EO technology within their research or work and want to improve their knowledge of remote sensing.
MAIN TOPICS:
- Introduction to the ESA NASA Arctic Methane & Permafrost challenge - AMPAC**
- Arctic ecosystem science
- SAR & optical data focusing on permafrost regions
- Active & passive remote sensing of the atmosphere
- Synthesing Remote sensing, modelling and in situ observations
- Arctic Process Modelling
- Science Communication
Registrations: 10 June – 15 July 2022. Registration link (https://www.conftool.net/ampac2022). The successful applicants will be notified by 01 August, 2022. Please keep in mind that the course has a limited capacity.
