Comparing Planetary Reflectance and Relative Spectral Response in Earth Science Remote Sensing
Geology & LandformDecoding Earth from Above: Planetary Reflectance and How Our Sensors See It Ever looked at a satellite image and wondered how scientists figure out what’s actually on the ground, miles and miles below? Well, a big part of that magic comes down to understanding how light bounces off things – and how our sensors “see”
Is the Arctic sea ice disappearing in a linear or non-linear way?
Polar & Ice RegionsThe Arctic Meltdown: Are We Headed for a Cliff Edge? The Arctic sea ice is in trouble, no doubt about it. We’re watching it shrink before our very eyes, and it’s a clear sign that our climate is changing fast. But the big question is: are we seeing a slow, steady decline, or are we
Which unsupervised classification method for non linear multivariate time series earth observation data in python
Modeling & PredictionDiving Deep: Unsupervised Classification for Earth Observation Time Series Data in Python Earth observation data is everywhere these days. We’re practically swimming in it! And that’s a good thing, because it gives us incredible opportunities to understand our planet like never before. But all that data, especially when it comes as complex, non-linear, multivariate time

Energy & ResourcesWhy Are Prices Going Up? Let’s Break Down Inflation Ever feel like your paycheck just doesn’t stretch as far as it used to? You’re not alone. That nagging feeling is often thanks to inflation – the sneaky rise in prices that eats away at your buying power. It messes with our budgets, makes planning for
Unveiling the Eastward Journey: Assessing Sunlight Penetration in GOES-16 Imagery
Weather & ForecastsDecoding the Skies: How GOES-16 Sees Sunlight’s Journey Ever wonder how weather forecasts got so darn good? A big part of the answer sits way up in space: GOES-16. This satellite, a joint project of NASA and NOAA, isn’t just snapping pretty pictures of clouds. It’s a high-tech marvel giving us incredible data for everything
Unveiling the Enigma: Exploring the Radiative Transfer Phenomenon Behind the Contrasting Colors of Clouds and Australia in Weather Satellite Infrared Images
Climate & Climate ZonesEver wonder why clouds look so different from the land in those weather satellite pictures? You know, the ones where Australia’s often dark, and the clouds are bright white? It’s not just a random color scheme; there’s some pretty cool science at play, all thanks to something called radiative transfer. Basically, radiative transfer is how
