Satellite soil moisture observation is challenging, but GNSS-R, proven by NASA’s CYGNSS mission, is a cost-effective solution improvement.

Satellite data reveal stronger Urban Heat Islands (UHIs) in cities with brighter nighttime lights, emphasizing the need for urban cooling strategies.

The seminar summarizes the Alaska Next-Gen Satellite Meeting, highlighting findings, future strategies, and alignment with NOAA's regional goals.

Please join us for a fun, informal evening of making connections with some of the leading professionals in our field. Whether you are currently on the job hunt, seeking advice about professional growth, or simply hoping to learn about possible career paths, this event is an excellent opportunity to expand both your knowledge base and your network of contacts. The format is exactly what the name suggests: with enough time to make a connection and learn something new, “mentees” will interact with rotating groups of “mentors” from a wide range of career and scientific backgrounds.

Participants will learn about GOES-R and JPSS satellite product applications and models related to rainfall and flood events, and engage in hands-on exercises to investigate case studies using the products and models. At the end of the short course, participants will have developed an understanding of the satellite data and products pertaining to precipitation forecasting.
