ESRIN, Frascati, Italy**Our team and mission**
As the holder of this two-year post, you will report to the Head of the Science Section in the Green Solutions Division within the Climate Action, Sustainability and Science Department of the Directorate of Earth Observation Programmes. In the execution of your tasks, you will work in close cooperation with other staff in the Directorate of Earth Observation Programmes.
You will be part of the Earth System Science Hub, a new ESA science facility and centre for networking and scientific collaboration among world-class researchers in ESA Member States (MS) and worldwide. The Hub will bring together young and senior scientists from different disciplines in Earth observation and Earth system science to contribute to developing the next generation of EO products and to jointly address some of the major science challenges of this decade.
The Hub relies on the latest advances in terms of open data science, cloud computing and HPC capabilities, offering a collaborative advanced development environment for science and research.
The Hub will also contribute to the development of a solid scientific basis for the implementation and evolution of Digital Twin Earth, an advanced, high-resolution replica of our planet, its processes and its interactions with human activities and ecosystems.
-

**Field(s) of activity/research for the traineeship**
You will be responsible for various activities, including:

- undertaking advanced research addressing major observational gaps and scientific priorities in EO and Earth system and climate science. The research will cover a wide range of innovative topics, from the development and validation of novel methods, algorithms and EO products to innovative Earth system and climate research;
- contributing to the advancement of our understanding of the Earth and climate system based on advanced EO data, models and AI, as well as its links with human activities and ecosystems, and establishing a solid scientific basis for the implementation and evolution of Digital Twin Earth by undertaking collaborative research across domains in collaboration with ESA experts and international scientists and science teams;
- supporting the definition, technical supervision and coordination of scientific exploitation projects carried out by external teams of experts and scientists in all areas
- of EO research and Earth system science;
- maintaining a continuous dialogue with the scientific community, including major international programmes and initiatives and partner space agencies, for example NASA, and preparing the scientific agenda driving future ESA activities and plans.
You will be involved in the scientific activities of the Science Section with one of the following thematic priorities:

- **Hydrology and water cycle research**: advancing the use of EO for hydrology and water cycle research from global to basin scale with a particular focus on exploring and exploiting the novel capacity offered by existing and upcoming Sentinel missions. Priorities include novel high-resolution products, relating for example to precipitation, evaporation and soil moisture, hydrological modelling and water discharge, groundwater storage and MGGM, global water cycle analysis, hydro-climatic extremes and human impacts on the water cycle;
- **Terrestrial carbon cycle**: enhancing our capacity to observe, quantify and understand the terrestrial carbon cycle, its sensitivity to climate change and its interactions with human activities and land use in terms of agriculture, forestry, energy and water consumption for example. The activities will, in particular, focus on the synergistic use of novel capabilities, such as Copernicus Sentinels, FLEX, Biomass and novel national and international missions. You will also contribute to the coordination and implementation of ESA carbon science clusters: carbonscienceclusters.esa.int;
- **Polar science and cryospheric research**: with a focus on advancing our EO-based capacity to observe, understand and predict the onset and amplitude of changes in polar regions and the associated processes and potential impacts in terms of ice sheets, glaciers and icecap dynamics, ice shelf-ocean-atmosphere interactions, snow processes and surface mass balance, permafrost, sea ice and polar ocean studies. You will also contribute to the coordination and implementation of the activities of the ESA Polar science cluster: polarsciencecluster.esa.int;
- **Atmospheric research**: advanci
