The Science Team Leader for ASTER, Dr. Yasushi Yamaguchi, is a professor at the Graduate School of Environmental Studies, Nagoya University, Japan. He graduated Tohoku University, Japan, and obtained ...
In June of 2016, Dr. Helen Worden became the U.S. Principal Investigator for MOPITT. She is interested in multi-decadal trends of carbon monoxide that indicate changing emissions of pollution with ...
No matter where you live-along the coast, in the heartland, or somewhere in between-your life is affected by water quality. Water quality issues raise many questions that are important to us all at ...
A layer of haze filled China’s Sichuan Basin on January 23, 2014, when the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Terra satellite acquired this natural-color image. The haze ...
Nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorous are not directly measurable with satellite observations. However, satellites can measure chlorophyll concentration, which can act as somewhat of a proxy for ...

The map above shows land surface temperature anomalies in North America for January 1-7, 2014. Based on data from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Terra satellite, ...
As most data users are aware, the Terra satellite has recently been experiencing power-based limitations caused by orbital changes and solar array efficiency. In order to maintain power margins, the ...
There are many ways to gauge air quality. The most common measure is visibility, since most of the constituents of air pollution form visible haze. You can use your own observations and a digital ...
Testing for nitrogen in your local watershed can help identify potential “œhot spots” in your community that may be contributing to nutrient loading downstream. With a simple, inexpensive field test ...
This article from IEEE talks about how satellite data can predict agricultural output and famine. Terra plays a large role in measuring the National Data Vegetation Index (NDVI), which is measured ...
Rarely do weather patterns and satellite overpass schedules align to provide cloud-free views of Western Europe in the spring. However, a high-pressure pattern kept skies spectacularly clear over the ...
