Dear All,

 

Apologies for the mass mail, but would very much appreciate if you could disseminate information on a new PhD opportunity at my ETH Zurich Ecosystem Management group on peatland mapping. The project is in collaboration with the EU Joint Research Centre, and will include application of machine learning to existing European data sets to map peatlands in Europe, as well as case studies on peatland restoration in Scotland and Switzerland.

 

With thanks,

 

Jaboury
