The Pioneer Center for Landscape Research in Sustainable Agricultural Futures (Land-CRAFT), at the Department of Agroecology, Aarhus University, Denmark, is offering a 3-year PhD position in Remote Sensing for Climate-smart Agriculture, starting on 1 September 2026 or as soon as possible thereafter.
The project aims to develop novel remote sensing algorithms to monitor crop nitrogen and agroecosystem productivity for climate-smart agriculture. The remote sensing derived information will be used to inform climate-smart agriculture practices and policies for the Danish and EU wheat cropping systems.
Candidates should hold a Master’s degree in agroecology, environmental science, ecology, geography, data science, or a related field, with experience in satellite remote sensing for crop nitrogen and yield predictions, strong skills in programming (preferably in Python). Strong quantitative skills and scientific writing abilities are essential.
The position is full-time and based in Aarhus.
The application deadline is 15 April 2026 at 23:59 CET.
