Food Security
In this live studio talk, Goddard research scienitist Molly Brown discusses her research on food security and how remote sensing can help lessen the impact of weather shocks.

When floods, droughts, and other natural disasters hit isolated and poor regions of the world, it can have devastating impacts on the local price of food. NASA Goddard research scientist Molly Brown is using satellite data to investigate and model the relationship between weather shocks and food prices in order to better address food security challenges around the world.
