| Description |
Powerful Santa Ana winds stoked several major wildfires in Southern California on Monday, Oct. 13, 2008, when instruments on NASA's Aqua satellite captured this image. As of October 14, the blazes had scorched nearly 12,000 acres, destroyed dozens of homes and forced the evacuation of neighborhoods in suburban Los Angeles and northern San Diego County, according to fire officials. Firefighters had little to no containment of any of the fires early Tuesday, and reported winds blowing at 50 mph in parts of the affected area. Wind gusts of up to 80 mph are possible in higher elevations later in the day. Image credit: NASA's MODIS Rapid Response Team Text credit: Laura Motel, NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center |

National Map Showing Habitat Suitability for Tamarisk Invasion |
| Abstract |
The spread of invasive species is one of the most daunting environmental, economic, and human-health problems facing the United States and the World today. It is one of several grand challenge environmental problems being addressed by NASA's Science Mission Directorate through a national application partnership with the US Geological Survey. NASA and USGS are working together to develop a National Invasive Species Forecasting System (ISFS) for the management and control of invasive species on Department of Interior and adjacent lands. The system provides a framework for using USGS's early detection and monitoring protocols and predictive models to process MODIS, ETM+, ASTER and commercial remote sensing data, to create on-demand, regional-scale assessments of invasive species likely habitats. Recent work on the Invasive Species Forecasting System (ISFS) project has shown the importance of remotely-sensed time-series data in geostatistical models for mapping the distribution of Tamarisk and other invasive plant species. This video shows the habitat suitability for a Tamarisk invasion in the continental United States. Red indicates areas that are highly suitable and yellow indicates areas which are less suitable. Texas, New Mexico, and Nevada are the most highly suitable states. Utah and Arizona have the next greatest risk. California, Arizona, Montana, Colorado, Oregon, Ohio, Wyoming, and Florida also have a significant risk. |

| Title |
Aqua/AIRS Water Vapor near southern California #2 |
| Abstract |
This visualization shows 3D volumetric water vapor data from the Aqua/Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) instrument. As the camera moved down and around the data set, the low data values are faded out revealing only the highest concentrations of water vapor data. This version (#2) ends with a slightly lower threshold than the original version - showing more of the highest water vapor concentrations. The color and opacity at each 3D voxel are driven by the water vapor data. The data set was obtained by Aqua on January 1, 2003. Only data from the sea level to about 10km are shown. This visualization was created to support a JPL press release about how assimilated AIRS data is improving global atmospheric simulation model forecasts by about 6 hours (from about 5 days to about 5 days and 6 hours). |

Habitat Suitability for Tamarisk Invasion in the State of California |
| Abstract |
The Invasive Species Forecasting System (ISFS) is a partnership between NASA and The US Geological Survey (USGS). The ISFS combines NASA Earth observations and statistical models to enhance USGS capabilities to map, monitor and predict the spread of significant invasive plant species. This video shows the habitat suitability for a Tamarisk invasion in the state of California. Tamarisk spreads quickly along riverbeds and when it's leaves shed, they secrete salt on the soil, which can hinder other plant growth. Red indicates areas that are highly suitable. Yellow indicates areas which are less suitable, and grey are areas which are not suitable. |

The study used field surveys of species richness, one 30m spatial resolution Landsat 7 Enhanced Thematic Mapper plus (ETM+) image, and a three year time-series of 250m spatial resolution Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MODIS) imagery over three sites. Actual tamarisk presence data from the field surveys are shown in green. |

Antarctic Plumbing: Lake Englehardt's Subglacial Hydraulic System |
| Abstract |
ICESat satellite laser altimeter elevation profiles from 2003-2006 collected over West Antarctica reveal numerous regions of temporally varying elevation. MODIS satellite imagery over roughly the same time period collaborates where these subglacial fluctuations have occurred. These observations have led scientists to conclude that subglacial water movement is happening in this lake region, revealing a widespread, dynamic subglacial water system that could provide important insights into ice flow and the mass balance of Antarctica's ice. |
