Monitoring Water Quality in South Korea
South Korea is facing a water quality problem. Researchers Hyunglok Kim and Seongjun Lee from the Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology (GIST) embarked on developing a model to predict water quality indicators in near real-time.
Landsat at AGU24
The NASA Landsat Science and Outreach teams attended the American Geophysical Union’s annual meeting in DC in December. At AGU24, they shared research and educated the public about Landsat.
Mangroves Are Losing Their Resilience
Mangroves, the iconic trees and shrubs of the Florida Everglades, are under increased stress due to more frequent, intense hurricanes.
Satellites Reveal a Greener Antarctic Peninsula
Using observations from Landsat 5 through Landsat 8, scientists determined that the area of vegetated land on the Antarctic Peninsula grew from 0.86 to 11.95 square kilometers (0.33 to 4.61 square miles) between 1986 and 2021.
Landsat Reveals Role of Green Spaces in Cooling Cities
As any urban dweller who has lived through a heat wave knows, a shady tree can make all the difference. But what happens when there’s no shade available?
Finding Your Name in Landsat
More than 715,000 visitors have transcribed their names and messages into Landsat letters using the “Your Name in Landsat” tool since it was unveiled in August as part of Camp Landsat 2024.
NASA’s Brad Doorn Brings Farm Belt Wisdom to Space-Age Agriculture
From his South Dakota roots to leading NASA’s agricultural program, Brad Doorn’s mission has remained the same: help farmers feed the world.
Landsat Plumbs the (Shallow) Depths
Scientists at the U.S. Geological Survey have developed a new way to measure ocean depth, or bathymetry, in shallow nearshore environments using Landsat data.
