đź“‹ Description
• Conduct a feasibility analysis for a passive multi-angle polarimeter designed to retrieve sea ice albedo and related cryospheric variables • Extend the RTM-SciML framework to incorporate polarized radiance and dense angular sampling • Produce a synthetic training dataset of top-of-atmosphere Stokes vectors using a vector radiative transfer model across representative sea ice surface conditions • Train and evaluate machine-learning models to retrieve broadband shortwave albedo and melt pond fraction • Quantify retrieval performance across spectral, angular, and polarimetric configurations using held-out synthetic test data • Document trade-offs between spectral range, angular sampling, and polarimetric capability • Deliver recommendations for multi-angle polarimeter instrument design • Prepare documentation, written reports, and oral presentations summarizing methods and findings • Support cryospheric remote-sensing research and instrument concept development for future Earth-observing missions at NASA Langley Research Center
🎯 Requirements
• Bachelor's degree in Physics, Atmospheric Science, or a related field • Strong Python skills, including NumPy and SciPy • Experience with a machine-learning library such as PyTorch or TensorFlow • Ability to work with large multi-dimensional scientific datasets • Experience with radiative transfer modeling • Familiarity with vector RT codes such as AccuRT, libRadtran, SCIATRAN, or VLIDORT • Ability to work independently and document code and methodology clearly • Strong written and oral communication skills • Background in atmospheric or cryospheric remote sensing • Experience or coursework related to optical instrument design or polarimetry • Familiarity with polarimetric measurements and their applications • Interest in contributing to a peer-reviewed publication • Enthusiasm for instrument concept development for current and future Earth-observing missions
