Our team of researchers has expertise on climatology, glaciology, geophysics, computer science, and remote sensing technology. Our current members are conducting research in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago, Greenland, and Antarctica.

Our research focuses mainly on the study of Arctic snow and sea ice, but we are also interested in polar climatology and the geophysics of ice sheets and ice shelves.

Our research is conducted using a mixture of surface, airborne, and satellite remote sensing (imaging radar, optical, LiDAR), geophysical techniques, field surveys, and metocean instruments.

We are located at the ICE Remote Sensing Lab on the University of Victoria campus on Vancouver Island.

Prior experience in the analysis of SAR and sea ice geophysical datasets is required, and some prior experience in microwave scattering modelling (e.g.

The successful candidate will contribute to a collaborative, multidisciplinary, research project dedicated to the development of Ku- and L-band SAR to map sea ice properties, with focus on geophysical properties such as snow, surface roughness, flooding, and ice ridging.

The candidate will have access to novel surface and airborne derived radar and geophysical property datasets and will have opportunities for field work, including funded airborne and ground validation initiatives in 2025 along with participants with foci spanning remote sensing, climate, andsocial enterprise domains.

The candidate will also be expected to participate in the development of NASA - ISRO ( NISAR ) mission data, as well as initiatives related to future Ku-band SAR missions.
