Long Island satellite derived shorelines by year
Western ends of each site showing the overall accretion using QGIS. See legend for color corresponding dates. The first continuous shoreline for each respective year was used for the visualization. (a) Rockaway Peninsula, (b) Long Beach, (c) Jones Beach Island.

Modeled shoreline change projections at Cape Lookout National Seashore
Modeled shoreline change projections overlayed onto maps of some key areas of Cape Lookout National Seashore. Note that the reference shoreline position from 1990 is not shown. Panel (A) shows the shoreline near the historic Portsmouth Village, at the northern extent of the islands, including a ferry terminal.

Schematic deposit model showing formation of hydrothermal minerals along faults
Schematic deposit model showing formation of hydrothermal Fe- and Mn-oxide deposits at depth along faults during the Neogene (∼8.5–4.8 Ma) from ascending hydrothermal fluids driven by frictional heating and other fault-related processes; the deposits may have experienced minor uplift along faults during the Neogene and Quaternary, and variably exposed as seaflo

Lake Mills Delta timelapse
Timelapsed photo data is sequenced at about 1 pixel-averaged frame per day, meaning that all of the images from a given day are combined, and the RGB values for a given x/y location on the image are the average of every RGB value for that location for that day.

Eyes on Earth Episode 120 – Mapping the California Coastline
In this episode of Eyes on Earth, we begin a series on Landsat’s usefulness in coastal studies. First, we talk with Sean Vitousek, a USGS research oceanographer, about changes to beaches in California and how he is using Landsat and other data to create models that can predict how the coastline may change in the future because of sea level rise and coastal erosion.

Nuvuk video camera 2 dark image
Two video cameras are installed atop a utility pole near the northernmost point of land in the United States at Nuvuk (Point Barrow), Alaska. The cameras point northwest toward the Arctic Ocean and the boundary between the Chukchi and Beaufort Seas. Every half hour during daylight hours, the cameras collect snapshots and video for 10 minutes.
