The doctoral researcher tackling this topic will research the means for precise and accurate modeling of agricultural fields and their immediate vicinity. The goal is to provide better tools for smart farming and for managing the ecological impacts of agriculture. An important application area for the field models will be within-field water balance as well as the interaction of the water within the field and the water in the immediate surroundings.
Tasks 1.2, 1.3, 3.1, 3.2
4) Agricultural water system, observations and management.
The position requires understanding of spatial models, and the ability to develop and assess models based on the available data. In addition, understanding of water modeling and agriculture is very important. Experience in spatial data modeling, spatial data analysis, and spatial statistics is a definite merit for an application. Possible background for a successful applicant includes relevant studies in geoinformatics, in water management, in agricultural sciences, or a similar field.
