- Monsoons - NASA Earthdata
Monsoons data from NASA provides global insight into the formation and behavior of these seasonal wind and rain phenomena
- Snowlines over Kathmandu - NASA Earthdata
Weak Indian summer monsoons often follow winters of heavy Eurasian snowfall, while less snow cover frequently leads to more intense monsoons Scientists first recognized this inverse relationship between Eurasian snow cover and monsoon intensity more than a century ago Now, with the help of satellite data, scientists are probing the roots of the relationship, hoping to better understand
- Dr. Brian Mapes | NASA Earthdata
Dr Brian Mapes, Professor, Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science, University of Miami Research interests: Role of vertical convection in the form of cumulus clouds and storms in large-scale (regional and global) weather and climate Research highlights: To Dr Brian Mapes, the study of water vapor is more interesting than many people appreciate In fact, water vapor is one of
- Reckoning with Winds - NASA Earthdata
Monsoons are seasonal wind changes caused by the contrast in heating over land and ocean from season to season Accompanied by damaging surface winds, flood or drought, the annual onset, intensity and retreat of monsoons differs from year to year Economic impacts of such weather extremes can be severe, Liu explained
- Snowlines over Kathmandu - Earthdata
Snowlines over Kathmandu [1] by Mike Meshek Published in 1996 Weak Indian summer monsoons often follow winters of heavy Eurasian snowfall, while less snow cover frequently leads to more intense monsoons Scientists first recognized this inverse relationship between Eurasian snow cover and monsoon intensity more than a century ago
- Atmosphere - NASA Earthdata
NASA data help researchers characterize processes occurring within Earth’s atmosphere and their interactions with its land, ocean, and ecosystems
- The Flood Hunters | NASA Earthdata
In addition to improving flood maps, the team can also use the topographic data to map seasonal wetlands, such as those created during monsoons or periodic flooding From space, Brakenridge explained, Asia during a normal monsoon season looks dramatically different than it does during the dry season
- Wind Speed - NASA Earthdata
NASA data shows wind speed at the ocean and land surface as well as in vertical profiles through the atmosphere
