PhD Opportunity: Detecting & quantifying methane emissions from a heterogeneous landscape using satellites & AI technologies

The Research Institute for Environment and Livelihoods (RIEL) is seeking expressions of interest from outstanding candidates for a groundbreaking PhD project focused on methane monitoring using remote sensing and artificial intelligence (AI).

This exciting project offers a unique opportunity to work within a multidisciplinary team comprising researchers from across the University and government agencies. The successful candidate will utilise cutting-edge Earth observation technologies, including satellites, drones, and AI-based analytical methods, to detect methane emission sources and quantify emission rates in the Beetaloo region of the Northern Territory, Australia.

The research will contribute to the development of a robust methane monitoring framework to support environmental stewardship, evidence-based decision-making, and sustainable resource development. The project will provide valuable training and experience at the intersection of remote sensing, geospatial sc...
