Research fellow call: AI and EO for Climate

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the power to accelerate the global response to climate change and is the focus of a new research fellowship position call with the European Space Agency.

AI algorithms can systematically organise petabytes of data, uncover new insights and train models that predict change. This makes their application across the fields of Earth observation and climate research increasingly attractive, especially when the need to slow and adapt to negative future consequences is becoming ever more urgent.

The new two-year fellowship is a joint collaboration between two parts of ESA’s Directorate of Earth Observation Programme – the Climate Office, which oversees the development of key global climate satellite datasets (part of its Climate Change Initiative) and informs both the UNFCCC and the wider science community and the innovation-focussed Φ-lab, which connects partners from industry, national and international organisations and the third sector through its AI4EO initiative.
