![Temperature anomalies for 2020 were derived from Terra MODIS Daily Land Surface Temperature (LST) data and compared to the 20-year average (2000 – 2020) in Maine. Shown is an enlarged subset of Maine. Stream vectors are represented in light blue. Blue pixels represent decreases in LST (cooler temperatures), green pixels represent areas of neutral change (average temperatures), while red and yellow pixels represent increases in LST (the highest temperatures).](/sites/default/files/styles/lis/public/2022-03/2021Fall_GSFC_MaineEco_WebsiteImage.jpg.webp?itok=9Ej487B3)

![Results of habitat suitability for mustelids in Western Montana, derived from mean PRISM temperature and precipitation (2010-2020), NASA SMAP soil moisture (2015-2020), HydroSHEDS river width and depth, NLCD 2016 Land Use Land Cover, NASA ALOS SRTM elevation, as well as species presence points for mink and otter (2000-2021). Yellow, red and violet areas represent high, medium, and low habitat suitability respectively. Yellow area is prime surveying location for mustelid species.](/sites/default/files/styles/lis/public/2022-03/2021Fall_GSFC_WesternMontanaEcoII_WebsiteImage.png.webp?itok=lR_GDQpk)

![Potential for land cover to change from trees to grass, forb, and herb between 1987 and 2020 in the Teton Mountain Range. Image created from LCMS land cover data which are derived from Landsat 4, 5, 7, and 8 imagery (1987 - 2020). High transition potential is depicted in yellow and low transition potential is indigo. Transition potentials help to forecast land cover and inform land managers on the locations of suitable bighorn sheep habitat.](/sites/default/files/styles/lis/public/2022-03/2021Fall_ID_GrandTetonEco_WebsiteImage.png.webp?itok=q05PkvLT)

![An NDWI waterbody mask derived from Landsat-8 OLI cloud-masked imagery from March-May 2019-2021 is shown in blue at 10-meter resolution over Mexico, Belize, and Guatemala. The ALOS-PALSAR-2 fine-beam L-band false color composite includes Refined Lee speckle filtered HV, HH, HH/HV bands. Darker and brighter green hues represent to low and high backscatter, respectively. Differentiating between open water, like the Hondo River, from vegetated inundation is important when distinguishing inundation by land cove](/sites/default/files/styles/lis/public/2022-03/2021Fall_JPL_MayaForestWaterResourcesII_WebsiteImage.png.webp?itok=WSwTB7q7)

![The difference in Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) between ozone spike days in summer 2018 and 2020 in Seiling, Oklahoma. AOD measures particles distributed within a column of air and can help predict tropospheric ozone spikes and inform regulatory organizations. Data derived from Terra and Aqua MODIS with 2020 Landsat 8 imagery as a base map. Yellow represents the greatest difference in AOD and purple represents the least difference, with green in the middle. Areas with negative values were removed.](/sites/default/files/styles/lis/public/2022-03/2021Fall_JPL_OklahomaHealthAndAirQuality_WebsiteImage.jpg.webp?itok=PR2zL79Y)

![Oversampled nitrogen dioxide (NO2) atmospheric column data from select months (May – September) in 2019 derived from the OMI sensor aboard the NASA Aura satellite. The darker purple colors reflect lower concentrations of NO2 in our study region, but as the color scale moves towards brighter yellow it represents high concentrations of NO2. Assessing the NO2 gas distribution, in addition to other gases, can aid project partners in identifying hotspots of emissions.](/sites/default/files/styles/lis/public/2022-03/2021Fall_LaRC_SoutheastMichiganNorthernOhioHealthandAirQuality_WebsiteImage.png.webp?itok=-X50Y6mw)
