Bangladesh, Sundarban, 2021-10-29. Report on board Rubayath and Elizabeth s boat on the Sundarbans, a region made of innumerable arms and channels of the Ganges delta which descend towards the Bay of Bengal. The largest mangrove forest in the world, the region, characteristic of Bengal, has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The site has also been recognised as a Ramsar site and biosphere reserve since then. Photograph by Martin Bertrand.Bangladesh, Sundarban, le 2021-10-29.

NASA Satellite image acquired March 21, 2010.To see a high res more detail of this image go here:On March 21, 2010, the Red River crested at 36.99 feet (11.27 meters), according to the National Weather Service. The New York Times reported that the rivers crest was 1 foot (0.3 meters) below predictions and 4 feet (1 meter) below 2009s record crest. A cold front passing through the area on March 19, 2010, slowed the rate of snowmelt feeding local rivers. That, combined with sandbags and dykes, spared the metropolitan area of Fargo, North Dakota, from serious flooding. North of town, however, agricultural fields and roads flooded.The Advanced Land Imager (ALI) on NASAs Earth Observing-1 (EO-1) satellite captured these images of fields north of Fargo on March 21, 2010. The top image uses shortwave infrared light, and the bottom image uses visible light. Muddy waters and fallow fields blend together in the true-color image (bottom), but the false-color image (top) distinguishes be

Flood progression map : 21" SLR. The 2016 Climate Ready Boston report was led by the City of Boston in partnership with the Green Ribbon Commission. The project team included the City of Boston, HR&A, Arcadis, Sasaki Associates, and the Boston Research Advisory Group at the University of Massachusetts Boston. Funding was provided by the Barr Foundation, the Massachusetts Coastal Zone Management Program, and the Sherry and Alan Leventhal Foundation.. Climate risks are not new for Boston, but they will continue to increase as the global climate changes. Published in Climate Ready Bostons final report from December 2016, this statement speaks to the past and future efforts by the City to adapt to coastal conditions. Established in 2015, Climate Ready Boston is an initiative to develop resilient solutions to prepare our City for climate change. The initiative consists of four components, including updated climate projections, vulnerability assessment, focus areas (geographic locations), an

Buffalo District Mount Morris Dam experts hosted a meeting in Mount Morris, NY to discuss the Dam's capabilities and how it reduces flooding impacts down stream of the dam. June 7, 2022.This opportunity allowed USACE employees to hear concerns from the public.The Dam has successfully prevented ~$3.9B in flood damages since construction and operates as a 'dry-bed dam', meaning water is only impounded when a risk of flooding is forecast - Otherwise, 'run-of-river' flows are maintained.

The Surface Biology and Geology High-Frequency Time Series (SHIFT) campaign employs a research plane carrying the AVIRIS-NG (Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer-Next Generation) instrument. From late February to late May 2022, the plane is collecting spectral data of land and aquatic plant communities over a 640-square-mile (1,656-square-kilometer) study area in Santa Barbara County and the nearby ocean. SHIFT is jointly led by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB), and The Nature Conservancy. The aerial portion of SHIFT flies on an approximately weekly basis over the study area, which includes the Jack and Laura Dangermond Preserve, owned by The Nature Conservancy, and the Sedgwick Reserve, operated by UCSB. SHIFT combines the ability of airborne science instruments to gather data over widespread areas with the more concentrated observations scientists conduct in the field to study the functional characteristics, health, and re

The image shows the trend of vapor pressure deficit over the Amazon rainforest during the dry season months August through October from 1987 to 2016. The measurements are shown in millibars a standard unit of measure for atmospheric pressure. Vapor pressure deficit is the ratio of how much moisture is present in the atmosphere compared to how much moisture the atmosphere can hold. The trend shows the decline of moisture in the air, particularly across the south and southeastern Amazon, which is caused by a combination of human activities, including changes in land use, forest burning and its byproduct, black carbon, along with activities that have increased carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide levels in the region.

Images of soil moisture conditions in Texas near Houston, generated by NASA's Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) satellite before and after the landfall of Hurricane Harvey can be used to monitor changing ground conditions due to Harvey's rainfall. As seen in the left panel, SMAP observations show that soil surface conditions were already very wet a few days before the hurricane made landfall (August 21/22), with moisture levels in the 20 to 40 percent range. Such saturated soil surfaces contributed to the inability of water to infiltrate more deeply into soils, thereby increasing the likelihood of flooding. After Harvey made landfall, the southwest portion of Houston became exceptionally wet, as seen in the right panel image from August 25/26, signaling the arrival of heavy rains and widespread flooding.
