Extractions: The Earth and Planetary Remote Sensing group is involved with many diverse research interests. These interests range from planetary science to sea and lake ice to volcanoes to ecology and include much more! Our unique Earth location allows us to receive multiple images daily from polar orbiting satellites. We are fortunate to receive data in real time, such as AVHRR, MODIS and SeaWIFs, at our receiving stations. The group also has access to additional data and knowledge from other associated remote sensing groups at the University of Alaska Fairbanks, such as the Alaska Satellite Facility. Interested in studying here? See Student Opportunities for further information.

http://www.mos.org/oceans/scientist/sensing.html

Extractions: Exploring the Oceans Remote Sensing Satellite Images This image represents a 3-dimensional view of ocean surface topography taken by the TOPEX/Poseidon satellite. Fluctuations in sea surface height result from changes in ocean circulation. The total relief of ocean topography is about 2 meters. The mission of this project is to better understand global ocean circulation and its tie to Earth's climate. Using instruments that are more sensitive than the human eye, satellites measure the fantastic array of colors in the ocean. Different colors may reveal the presence and concentration of phytoplankton, sediments and dissolved organic chemicals which in turn tells us about the health and chemistry of the ocean. Mapping ocean color reveals productive areas, areas where phytoplankton and marine animals are found. Satellites can measure ocean surface temperatures shown in computer-generated colors. Blue and green represent colder water while red and yellow represent warm water. This image shows the Gulf Stream, a warm ocean current that moves north along the coast of Florida, turning eastward off North Carolina and flowing to the northeast across the Atlantic. It is one of the strongest currents in the ocean. Because the great area of the world's oceans makes it impossible to equip enough research vessels to study more than a small area of one ocean at one time, and because what happens in any one area of an ocean is dependent on processes at at work in other parts of the world's oceans, oceanographers need the ability to study the oceans as a total system. Oceanographers are using

CIPEC - Remote Sensing
There are, however, technical challenges that have hindered social scientists from fully capitalizing on remote sensing for land cover change studies.
http://www.cipec.org/research/rs/

Extractions: CIPEC Home > Remote Sensing by: Charlie Schweik, Research Associate and Glen Green, CIPEC Postdoctoral Fellow in Satellite Remote Sensing. The global environmental change research community faces a significant "information gap" problem. In most areas in the world, little information has been collected on change in land cover, and specifically data on change in forest resources. In cases where forest measuration has been applied (e.g., forest plot sampling), it has usually been conducted for only one point in time. Remote sensing is particularly important in CIPEC's research agenda because it helps fill this information gap. To date, Landsat Multispectral Scanner (MSS) and Thematic Mapper (TM) images have been the primary data source utilized in CIPEC studies. The Landsat image library is particularly important to the environmental change research agenda and to CIPEC because it provides a common time series of land cover condition, starting in 1972 and continually acquiring new images, for nearly the entire Earth's terrestrial surface. Landsat images therefore provide an opportunity to assess land cover change any chosen site in the Western Hemisphere. However, one of the great challenges facing the Human Dimensions of Environmental Change research program is how to relate human incentives, behavior and action at particular localities to land cover change at broader (e.g., regional) geographic regions. The fine spatial resolution of Landsat images (e.g., 30 meters by 30 meters for Landsat TM) along with its broad geographic extent provides an opportunity in making this linkage.

Extractions: [Uses] [Examples] Earth Remote Sensing Remote-sensing satellites, like the one shown on the left, study Earth's surface. From 300 miles (480 km) up, this satellite uses powerful cameras to scan the planet. The satellite then sends back valuable data about global environments. How we use Satellite Imaging The instruments on remote-sensing satellites study Earth's plant cover, chemical composition, and surface water, among many other features. People who work in farming, fishing, mining, and many other industries find this information very useful. We can also use remote sensing satellites to study changes in the earth's surface that are caused by people. Examples of this include the parts of West Africa that are turning into desert (desertification), and the destruction of the rainforest in South America (deforestation).
