Funding-ROSES 2012: Remote Sensing of Water Quality; August 22, 2012 

 

Agency

 

NASA Headquarters

 

Description

 

The Terrestrial Hydrology and Ocean Biology and Biogeochemistry Programs support this program element. Both programs support Presidential mandates and associated Federal research objectives, e.g., the U.S. Climate Change Science Program (http://www.globalchange.gov) and its strategic plan, The National Ocean Policy Draft Implementation Plan (http://www.whitehouse.gov/administration/eop/oceans/implementationplan).

 

NASA's Ocean Biology and Biogeochemistry program focuses on describing, understanding, and predicting the biological and biogeochemical regimes of the upper ocean, as determined by observation of aquatic optical properties using remote sensing data, including those from space, aircraft, and other suborbital platforms.

 

NASA’s Terrestrial Hydrology program focuses use of remote sensing to develop a predictive understanding of the role of water in land-atmosphere interactions and to further the scientific basis of water resources management.
