![Eastern region of the Baa Atoll in the Republic of Maldives. The red indicates areas that would likely be flooded by 2100 according to the most extreme IPCC AR6 Shared Socioeconomic Pathway scenario, as identified through the NASA Sea Level Projection Tool. CoastalDEM, derived from NASA's SRTM sensor, provided elevation data. The base map image was taken in January 2023 by Planet Labs. Shades of yellow and green indicate shallow water and land surfaces.

![Evaporative Stress Index (ESI) processed imagery from ECOSTRESS data, captured on October 4, 2021, for Marin County in the San Francisco Bay Area. Darker regions have a higher ESI value, signifying moister conditions, while lighter regions are drier. Vegetative moisture has a significant impact on fire severity and understanding localized moisture conditions can inform the county’s fire suppression efforts. Land outside of Marin County shows NDVI processed imagery derived from Sentinal-2A data.](/sites/default/files/styles/lis/public/2023-05/2023Spring_ARC_MarinCountyWildfires_WebsiteImage.png.webp?itok=FQS2THAF)

![Canopy cover in the greater Ben Delatour Scout Ranch region from a 2013 NAIP Image with a slope and aspect layer derived from a 10-meter digital elevation model (DEM). This image illustrates how elevation-derived variables are used to inform classification models to map canopy cover. Canopy is displayed as red, and the map illustrates that there are higher concentrations of canopy on northern aspects- illustrating the nature of tree density in our study region. ](/sites/default/files/styles/lis/public/2023-05/2023Spring_CO_FrontRangeWildlandFires_WebsiteImage.png.webp?itok=MHr1Zy9O)

RPMS data (brown and black) are derived from Landsat 5 TM, 7 ETM+, 8 OLI, and 9 OLI-2. The image displays snow persistence zones, with intermittent, transitional, and persistent snow zones in orange, light blue, and dark blue respectively. The image includes parts of the Sawatch and Elk Mountains.](/sites/default/files/styles/lis/public/2023-05/2023Spring_CO_WesternSlopeAg_Website_image.jpg.webp?itok=A7yts3_b)
