Faculty VI - Institute of Geodesy and geoinformation technology / Satellite Geodesy

Research Assistant - salary grade E13 TV-L Berliner Hochschulen

part-time employment may be possible

Tasks

  • Simulation studies with LEO PNT satellite fleets and integrating multi-GNSS systems to advance tropospheric data assimilation techniques for numerical weather prediction.
  • Modeling slant and zenith delays across GPS, BeiDou, Galileo and large-scale LEO constellations through advanved simulations.
  • Performing high-resolution (spatial and temporal) tropospheric parameter inversions, utilizing slant and zenith traveltime delays as critical observables.
  • Validating inversion outcomes with observational datasets and through inter-technique comparisons to ensure accuracy and robustness.
  • Integrating derived products into numerical weather prediction models for improved forecasting.

Requirements

  • Successfully completed scientific university degree (Master, Diplom or equivalent) in geodesy, atmospheric sciences, remote sensing or related fields.
  • Proficiency in using slant and zenith tropospheric delays to atmospheric parameter inversion.
  • Strong background in GNSS data analysis, LEO satellite simulations, and atmospheric modeling.
  • Good knowledge of scientific programming in a suitable programming language such as Python and Matlab.
  • Expertise in numerical methods for inversion and data assimilation workflow.
  • Good knowledge of German and/or English required; willingness to acquire the respective missing language skills.
