A warm welcome to our new postdoc, Arvin Fakhri.
Arvin will be exploring potential direct links between biodiversity and remotely sensed data across different scales, with the goal of producing a wall-to-wall biodiversity map of a demonstration area.
We are very happy to have him onboard!

We’re thrilled to welcome our new postdoc, Rachel Kuzmich, to the team!
Rachel will be using multi-sensor multi-temporal remote sensing data to examine climate-related forest change.
Excited to have her join us!
