Thermal Modeling for Complex Terrains on Europa

National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)

This NASA Postdoctoral Program fellowship focuses on improving numerical thermal modeling tools for Europa's complex terrains. The fellow will incorporate roughness, beaming, and shadows to analyze E-THEMIS data and distinguish active heat sources from passive self-warming.

Why it may fit EEPS

This fellowship is directly focused on planetary science, specifically developing thermal models to analyze surface temperatures and topography on Europa using NASA mission data.
