This proposal focuses on the application of NASA Earth Science observations to support essential EPA, WRAP, and CenSARA operational decision support tools concerned primarily with national Air Quality that includes connections to Climate and Agriculture. The decision support tools, the National Emissions Inventory (NEI) and...

We propose to deploy a system to directly apply observations from NASA's MODIS sensors into the existing USDA-NRCS rangeland conservation program decision making process in Arizona and New Mexico. Specifically, we propose to the Agriculture (1.3.1) application area, where MODIS derived estimates of vegetation cover...

Heat related death is currently the number one weather-related killer in the United States.Mortality from these events is expected to increase as a function of climate change. The proposed activity seeks to augment the current Heat Watch/Warning System (HWWS) with NASA instruments and models used...

The proposed project aims at enhancing the U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) global crop assessment decision support system via the integration of NASA soil moisture data products and adoption of NASA land surface modeling and data assimilation tools. USDA FAS...

Mathematical models are critical to predicting the effects of human activities and natural processes on water quality. Water quality decision support systems (DSS) such as BASINS (and the HSPF model embedded in BASINS) are used extensively to simulate watershed processes, allowing for the partitioning of...
