Job Title: Responsibilities: Investigate coastal geomorphological dynamics (e.g., erosion, sediment transport, sea-level rise impacts) and urban landscape evolution using remote sensing (RS) and GIS technologies. Analyze multi-temporal satellite imagery (e.g., Landsat, Sentinel, Lidar) and aerial data to quantify geomorphological changes in coastal and urban environments. Develop predictive models of shoreline changes, urban subsidence, and flood-risk zones using geospatial tools (e.g., ArcGIS Pro, QGIS, ERDAS IMAGINE). Conduct field validation studies in coastal/urban sites and integrate ground-truth data with RS analysis. Publish findings in high-impact journals (Q1/ISI) and present at international conferences. Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams on climate adaptation and hazard mitigation projects. Qualifications: MSc/PhD in Geomorphology, Physical Geography, Geosciences, or related field. Expertise in RS/GIS software: Advanced proficiency in ArcGIS, ENVI, Google Earth Engine, and Python/R for geospatial analysis. Experience with digital terrain modeling (DTM/DEM), change detection, and spectral indices (e.g., NDVI, NDWI). Demonstrated research in coastal geomorphology (e.g., dune dynamics, deltaic systems) and urban landscape transformation. Strong publication record in geomorphology, remote sensing, or GIS journals. Fieldwork competency (topographic surveys, sediment sampling) and data integration skills. Preferred Skills: Knowledge of machine learning applications in geomorphology (e.g., land cover classification, change prediction). Experience with SAR data (InSAR for subsidence monitoring) or hyperspectral imagery. Familiarity with coastal vulnerability indices (CVI) and urban growth modeling. Offer: Competitive salary + grants for international conferences. Access to high-resolution satellite data, UAV/drone equipment, and advanced computing resources. Collaboration with leading research networks in geosciences. 📍 Location: [Iran] 📧 Apply: Send CV, cover letter, and 2 relevant publications to [h.amoonia@cfu.ac.ir] with subject: “Coastal Urban Geomorphology Researcher Application – [Your Name]” .
