Research done during that expedition determined that in certain conditions Landsat could measure depths up to 22 meters (72 feet), which gave birth to the field of satellite-derived bathymetry. This new technology enabled charts in clear water areas around the world to be revised, helping boats and deep-drafted supertankers avoid running aground on hazardous shoals or seamounts.Music: “Science of Life,” “Moving In Thought,” and “The Right Move” by Andrew Michael Britton [PRS] & David Stephen Goldsmith [PRS], “Midsummer” by Uwe Buschkotter [GEMA], “The Grand Opening” by Laurent Dury [SACEM], “Drifting Satellite” by Théo Boulenger [SACEM], “Man and Machine” by Larry Groupe [BMI], “A Little Optimism 1” by Joel Goodman [ASCAP], “Easy Does It” by Alchemist [SIAE], “Variations” by Stephan Sechi [ASCAP], “Bright and Playful” by Oscar Lo Brutto [PRS]; via Universal Production MusicComplete transcript available.Watch this video on the NASA Goddard YouTube channel. || 13907_Landsat_Cousteau_poster.png (1920x1080) [3.1 MB] || 13907_Landsat_Cousteau_poster_print.jpg (1024x576) [287.2 KB] || 13907_Landsat_Cousteau_poster_searchweb.png (320x180) [114.6 KB] || 13907_Landsat_Cousteau_poster_thm.png (80x40) [8.1 KB] || 13907_Landsat_Cousteau-pr.mov (1920x1080) [7.2 GB] || 13907_Landsat_Cousteau-yt.mp4 (1920x1080) [938.3 MB] || 13907_Landsat_Cousteau-tw.mp4 (1280x720) [301.1 MB] || 13907_Landsat_Cousteau-tw.webm (1280x720) [59.6 MB] || 13907_Landsat_Cousteau-captions.en_US.srt [11.3 KB] || 13907_Landsat_Cousteau-captions.en_US.vtt [10.8 KB] || ", "hits": 82 }, { "id": 13889, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/13889/", "result_type": "Produced Video", "release_date": "2021-07-26T11:45:00-04:00", "title": "Landsat 9 at Work", "description": "Landsat 9, launching September 2021, will collect the highest quality data ever recorded by a Landsat satellite, while still ensuring that these new measurements can be compared to those taken by previous generations of the Earth-observing satellite.

Sunlight reflects off Earth’s surface, and scientists identify the land cover based on which wavelengths are reflected strongly or weakly.But sunlight is also reflected by particles in the atmosphere, which distorts the data and can lead to what looks like a haze in the imagery. Using basic principles of physics, and knowing the meteorological conditions, scientists can determine the effects of the scattering and absorption as light passes through the atmosphere. This atmospheric correction is essential to determining exactly how much of each wavelength reflected of the features of the surface, and having quantifiable data.The videos below show different examples of atmospheric scattering which need to be accounted for when doing atmospheric correction of satellite data. In these cases, it is for observations over water. The resulting atmospheric corrections are part of the process for the new Landsat Aquatic Reflectance data product.

The rapid flow of inland ice causes the glacier front to advance and two major calving events cause the ice front to retreat.Combined, the 2015 and 2017 calving events have led to the glacier’s ice front being fully disconnected from the North Ice Shelf.

It takes 16 days for the swaths to overlap enough to image the whole Earth.Previous Landsat sensors swept back and forth across the swath like a whisk broom to collect data. The sensor looked at a calibration source at the end of every row, which means that measurements were consistent from orbit to orbit. But this sensor design requires fast-moving parts, which are more likely to break.—and which did on Landsat 7.In contrast, the instruments on Landsat 8 view across the entire swath at once, building strips of data like a pushbroom. This approach requires no moving parts and gives the sensor detectors greater dwell time. The pushbroom instrument is smaller and lighter than previous whisk broom instruments, but its calibration is much more complex given the large number of detectors.“It was a natural step to evolve to a pushbroom sensor. The technology was proven on other satellites, and we knew we could get better accuracy. The pushbroom has no moving parts. It is a newer and more reliable technology.” explains Terry Arvidson, senior project engineer.For more information on the future of Landsat instruments, read https://landsat.gsfc.nasa.gov/landsat-9/instruments/. || ", "hits": 375 }, { "id": 30073, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/30073/", "result_type": "Hyperwall Visual", "release_date": "2017-09-01T12:00:00-04:00", "title": "Water Level in Lake Powell", "description": "Among the dams on the Colorado River is the Glen Canyon Dam, which creates Lake Powell.

By tracking displacement of local surface features through the seasons on outlet glaciers from the large ice sheets, researchers from the University of Alaska, the University of Bristol, and the University of Colorado have been able to show that each glacier around Greenland has a unique pattern of flow variation through the seasons. Seasonal variations, seen in this animation on the lower 25 kilometers of Heimdal Glacier in southeast Greenland, are caused by a combination of processes. For Heimdal, the largest forcing for flow variation is likely the input of increasing amounts of surface melt water through the Spring and Summer, but there is also an interplay between calving of ice from the end of the glacier, flow acceleration as shown in the animation, and thinning of the ice due to the extra stretching from the faster flow. By measuring these changes in flow on seasonal timescales, scientists can develop a better understanding of what controls the flow of these glaciers where they meet the ocean. This understanding will improve our ability to anticipate flow responses of these systems in a warming climate. || ", "hits": 31 }, { "id": 12444, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/12444/", "result_type": "Produced Video", "release_date": "2016-12-12T02:20:00-05:00", "title": "Landsat's Global View of Ice Velocity", "description": "Ice from glaciers constantly flows into the ocean, but the speed the ice moves at changes.

The route takes the birds along what’s called the Pacific Flyway, where they seek out the increasingly rare wetlands teeming with tasty insects to fuel their long-distance flights. The Nature Conservancy of California operates the BirdReturns program, with partners including Point Blue Conservation Science, Audubon California and the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. Over the last century, California's Central Valley has lost 95% of the wetlands habitat, which is needed for the shorebirds while on their migration. The solution involves big data, binoculars and rice paddies. The Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s eBird program collects on-the-ground observations, including species and date spotted, from bird watchers nationwide. With a recent NASA grant to Cornell, scientists created computer models to analyze that information and combine it with satellite remote sensing imagery from Landsat and the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer instruments on NASA’s Terra and Aqua satellites. With these models, they could identify areas in the Central Valley where birds flocked to during the spring and fall migrations, as well as estimate the number of birds making the journey.Some of his colleagues had been using Landsat images to look at where – and when – there was standing water, to assist with surveys of shorebirds.The nonprofit Point Blue, based in Petaluma, California, developed models that can classify habitats based on Landsat imagery. For the BirdReturns project, the team analyzed 1,500 Landsat scenes between 2000 and 2011, and then additional images from Landsat 8 after its 2013 launch. For each area not blocked by clouds, they classified whether there was surface water.Matching the location and timing of surface water from Landsat with the route and timing of migrating shorebirds from eBird, the BirdReturns program looks for those key sites where extra water would make a difference for the birds, which forage for food in the wetland areas. The Nature Conservancy then uses a reverse auction where farmers try to submit the lowest bid to turn their empty fields into a pop-up wetland for the few weeks the birds are stopping in the Central Valley while on their migration.We would like to thank the Point Blue and The Nature Conservancy for supplying Central Valley water data.
