![Magnitude of largest model break in Continuous Change Detection Algorithm harmonic regression model, indicative of clearcut logging in the Oregon coast range forests. Imagery from Landsat 4-5 TM, Landsat 7 ETM+, and Landsat 8-9 OLI from across the study period 2000-2021 over standard hill shade. Patches of blue show clear cut areas with lavender then yellow indicating higher magnitude. Green areas represent forests untouched during the study period.](/sites/default/files/styles/lis/public/2024-01/2023Sum_MA_OregonCoastRangeEco_websiteImage.jpg.webp?itok=sGJs5DSB)

![Forest cover and land surface temperature (LST) around Maine's Penobscot River during Summer 2021. The shades of green distinguish between evergreen (dark) and deciduous (light) forest which were classified using Landsat 8 OLI imagery. The purple gradient corresponds to LST derived from Terra MODIS where the warmest areas, including Bangor, are white. Changing land use and warming temperatures along Maine’s rivers are associated with reducing juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) survivorship.](/sites/default/files/styles/lis/public/2022-11/2022Sum_GSFC_MaineEcoIII_WebsiteImage.jpg.webp?itok=EiYDdUqO)

![The image was collected by Landsat 9 on January 26 of 2023 showing Skidaway Island and waterways on the Georgia coast. The data shows areas of healthy vegetation and urban areas using a Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). The darker orange represents grass and urban areas. Yellow and purple represents forested and densely vegetated areas.
