Integrating satellite thermal imagery and global weather datasets for operational actual evapotranspiration mapping and drought early warning applications Integrating satellite thermal imagery and global weather datasets for operational actual evapotranspiration mapping and drought early warning applications

The development and online access to an operational global actual evapotranspiration (ETa) is described. The global ETa is generated using the Operational Simplified Surface Energy Balance (SSEBop) model with inputs from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) land surface temperature and gridded weather datasets. Global and regional ETa, as well as anomaly graphics and...

USGS CEOS analysis ready data for land achievements and future plans USGS CEOS analysis ready data for land achievements and future plans

The efforts of the Committee on Earth Observation Satellites (CEOS) to bring CEOS Analysis Ready Data for Land (CARD4L) products to countries and international organizations quickly and easily continues to receive important support from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). As part of its engagement with CARD4L, the USGS worked to address specific Threshold and Target Product Family...

DAS 3DVSP survey at Stratigraphic Test Well (Hydrate-01) DAS 3DVSP survey at Stratigraphic Test Well (Hydrate-01)

This proceeding outlines the acquisition, processing, and fault interpretation of the largest known onshore distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) 3D vertical seismic profile (VSP) survey. This survey was carried out to detect the distribution of faults near the gas hydrate research well (Stratigraphic Test Well: Hydrate-01) on the North Slope of Alaska within the Prudhoe Bay Unit (PBU). The...

Incorporating uncertainty into groundwater salinity mapping using AEM data Incorporating uncertainty into groundwater salinity mapping using AEM data

Airborne electromagnetic surveys provide spatially extensive resistivity information that can be useful for groundwater salinity mapping; however, the transformation from geophysical data to salinity interpretations carries uncertainty. We compare two quantitative approaches to salinity mapping recently applied to address water resource management objectives: the location of the depth to...
