You can have access to a free software image tool which be should enough
for the analysis you plan to do. This free software is comparable to the
expensive sotfware as sigmascan.

1. TWO JOB OPENINGS-ESTUARINE ECOSYSTEM MODELING AND WATERSHED DISCHARGE

E
MODELING
The Smithsonian Environmental Research Center (SERC) has two opening for
postdoctoral research associates to join a project modeling water
quality and nutrient dynamics in small estuarine embayments. The
estuarine ecosystem modeler will help derive and test models of
estuarine ecosystems subject to multiple stressors. The watershed
modeler will help develop geographic descriptions of Chesapeake Bay
subestuaries and their watersheds and will use time series analysis and
watershed models to predict nutrient and sediment discharges from
watersheds to subestuaries under current and future land use and climate
scenarios. Both modelers will help integrate watershed and estuary
models into a decision support system. Estuarine modeler applicants
should have a Ph.D. in ecology or estuarine, ocean, or environmental
sciences; experience with ecosystem and water quality simulation
modeling and multivariate statistical analysis; and background in
estuarine ecology, ecosystem ecology, nutrient dynamics, or planktonic
food webs. Watershed modeler applicants should have a Ph.D. in science
or geography; experience with watershed modeling, statistical analysis,
and geographic information system analysis, and background in landscape
ecology, ecosystem ecology, biogeochemistry, nutrient transport, or
hydrology. Other desirable skills for both positions include computer
programming and data base management. The incumbents will be active
participants in project planning, data analysis, and scientific
publications and must be able to work as part of a research team. The
position is funded by a 3-year grant from the USEPA Science to Achieve
Results (STAR) Program. Salary $40,000-42,000 (depending on
qualifications) plus benefits. For best consideration, send letter of
application, resume, graduate and undergraduate transcripts (photocopies
are acceptable), and names of three references (with telephone numbers
and e-mail addresses) by August 15, 2003. Estuarine modelers apply to
Dr. Charles Gallegos (gallegosc@si.edu) and watershed modelers to Dr.
Donald Weller (wellerd@si.edu), both at SERC, P.O. Box 28, Edgewater, MD
21037-0028. For more information on SERC visit http://www.serc.si.edu.
