InsuranceVision is a remarkable candidate for funding under this program because it is a financial DSS helping agricultural producers address severe losses to their crops yet it must incorporate land, climate and weather information because the success of an agricultural enterprise is heavily dependent on...

We propose the use of NASA remote sensing and modeling products combined with surface observations at various scales to improve decisions support systems in agriculture, drought and water resources management for South America (SA). This proposal builds upon a partnership between NASA and various U.S...

Concentrations of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) presently pose a serious health hazard to tens of millions of people in the U.S. While a significant portion of this PM2.5 is governed by the gas-phase precursors NH3 and NOx, current efforts to ascertain and control the influence...

The two main objectives of this project were to operationalize the use of satellite ocean color data in water quality management decisions and to advance the scientific basis for ocean color remote sensing of water quality in nearshore coastal waters.
For the decision support objective...

This proposal represents a collaborative multi-agency effort to improve decision-making on management of the Appalachian National Scenic Trail (A.T.) by providing a coherent framework for data integration, status report and trend analysis. The A.T. is 2,175 miles long and crosses 14 states while intersecting 8...

In wildlife management, perception is everything. Natural resource agencies are tasked with managing wildlife for a diverse group of constituents with interests ranging from hunting to conservation. As such, wildlife management is often burdened by disconnects between the public s perception of wildlife abundance and...

The goal of this project is to develop the seasonal predictive capacity for the Drought Monitor-Decision Support System (DM-DSS) using Earth science models and satellite products. The enhanced DM-DSS will assist society¿s response to a drought from a traditional ¿crisis management¿ scenario, which emphasizes emergency...

Malaria is a leading cause of morbidity in Amazon-basin countries. Major challenges remain in targeting intervention and control strategies, particularly the distribution of health resources (treatments, diagnostics, and long-lasting impregnated nets) due to eco-social dynamics causing a disconnect between where people are infected and where...

A primary goal of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is to expand markets for U.S. agricultural products and support global economic development. The USDA World Agricultural Outlook Board (WAOB) supports this goal by developing monthly World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE) for the...

The purpose of this effort is to develop a deterministic model for predicting and simulating pollen emission and downwind concentration to study details of phenology and meteorology and their dependencies. We aim to develop a real time and rapid response pollen release and transport system...
