The satellite imagery is a Sentinel-1 Ground Range Detection C-SAR image from July 2nd, 2021, taken over the Sudd Wetland located in South Sudan. The image shows the 'VV' backscatter values, which correlate to vertical transmission and vertical reception from the C-SAR instrument and are used to classify wetland inundation extent. Low 'VV' values (blue) represent areas covered by open waters & inundated land areas and high 'VV' values (yellow) represent dry land areas.

Normalized Difference Snow Index (NDSI) processed image using Landsat 8 OLI data from January 2022 and SUOMI-NPP VIIRS snow cover data from January 2019, overlaid on a Landsat 8 RGB image, colorized purple. NSDI is shown in yellow-orange-red and SUOMI-NPP VIIRS is depicted in shades of blue. Snow cover data was used to identify melt events causing high turbidity in Wyoming’s Shoshone River basin. PlanetScope-derived turbidity (May 2019) also highlights the river in green.

Color composite image portraying Wupatki Basin in northwestern Arizona, derived from 2021 LANDSAT 8 OLI/TIRS imagery. This image depicts Pinyon-Juniper Woodlands (PJW), among other vegetation, between the river and mountains in a light green color. Thermal Infrared (TIR) occupies the red band, while the green and blue bands represent the Modified Normalized Difference Water Index (MNDWI) and the Modified Soil-Adjusted Vegetation Index (MSAVI), respectively. The reduced correlation between bands in this comp
