As reported in the May issue of the Landsat Project Update, USGS librarian Carol Deering has analyzed the occurrence of Landsat-related articles in over 300 professional journals to determine the disciplines that use Landsat data most frequently.
Deering’s results verify the use of Landsat data across a wide spectrum of scientific fields—from coastal management to biogeography. Visit the USGS Landsat Project Update to learn more and to see a graphical representation of the study results.
Could Land Surface Temperature Help Predict Earthquakes?
In Taiwan, earthquakes are linked to shallow stores of magma. New research explores this connection by linking land surface temperature with earthquakes.
