Postdoc Position in Satellite-based Kelp Mapping (SKeMa): development of a software framework for First Nations in British Columbia, University of Victoria, Canada

Applications are being accepted for a postdoc position in Satellite-based Kelp Mapping (SKeMa): development of a software framework for First Nations in British Columbia, in the SPECTRAL Remote Sensing Lab, Geography and Computer Science, at the University of Victoria (Uvic). The postdoc will be based in Victoria, Vancouver Island, Canada, and will work under the supervision of Dr. Maycira Costa and Dr. Neil Ernst from UVic. This project is funded by the Canadian Space Agency and in partnership with First Nations, VERTEX Resource Group, and the Hakai Institute.

Project Context:

This project aims to develop a software-based analysis framework to facilitate the use of Sentinel 2 and SuperDove satellites to retrieve floating kelp extent in BC and support First Nations marine planning. We expect that the outcomes of this research will allow First Nations to more independently and effectively use Space-based Earth Observation (SBEO) for tasks such as tracking kelp changes in relationship to environmental conditions (e.g., ocean temperature, return of sea otters) and overseeing the status of cultural and economically important kelp wild harvesting in their marine Traditional Territories. Kelp forests in British Columbia (BC) provide habitat and shelter to many important species, including juvenile salmon, as they migrate from coastal rivers to the open ocean. However, the effects of a warming climate and coastal development threaten kelp ecosystems, recognized as ecologically significant species of priority in Canada as they provide habitat for many species, including economically and culturally important Pacific salmon and herring, particularly for First Nations.
