Job description

- Investigation of the temporal variation in the Antarctic sea ice cover and its impact on Antarctic ice sheet mass change using remote sensing and in-situ observation

- Physical oceanographic in-situ observation in the Antarctica (installation/recovery of oceanographic mooring instrument, CTD/ADCP observation, uncrewed underwater vehicles, Bio-tagging sensors, etc)

- Analysis of the spatio-temporal change in sea water properties using long-term physical oceanographic observation data

- Quantification of the inflow and heat transport of circumpolar deep water (CDW) into the ice shelf cavity for understanding the sub-ice shelf basal melting process

- Acquisition and analysis of satellite remote sensing data

- Improvement of data analysis automation/quality control algorithms by utilizing AI
