Researchers have developed a hybrid approach to estimate recent rainfall that combines satellite-based rainfall estimates with satellite-based soil moisture estimates. When this approach was tested against independent rain gauge measurements it showed notable improvements.
Caitlin Adams (FrontierSI Data Scientist). Spatial solutions: the value of satellite data for the public sector About this Event Curious about what you could do with data from a different perspective? What about a perspective that is hundreds of kilometres above us? FrontierSI Data Scientist Caitlin Adams will present on “Spatial solutions: the value of satellite data for the public sector”. Caitlin works on Digital Earth Australia, an initiative from Geoscience Australia on making satellite data easy to use, in... View Article
This project analyzes satellite images and other observational data to study two-way interactions between convection and tropospheric waves. In particular, it investigates how these interactions influence patterns of convection and clouds. Numerical experiments in the form of high-resolution simulations are designed to support the results.
Kim had her first paper accepted in the Journal of Climate and was over the moon but sneaking up behind her was another first she didn't expect - her first bout of imposter syndrome.
In this project, the selected student will use the satellite-based data obtained from the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) to give an overall comparison of the sea ice variations in Arctic and Antarctic during the recent decades.
