Tracking environmental dynamics and agricultural intensification in southern Mali
The Office de la Haute Vallée du Fleuve Niger (OHVN) zone in southern Mali is a small but important agricultural production region. Against a background of environmental degradation including decades of declining rainfall, soil erosion, and human pressure on forest resources, numerous farming communities stand out through the use of improved soil and water management practices that have improved a

Monitoring volcano threats from space
Volcanoes can have extremely wide ranging effects. Even a single eruption can cause disastrous climate changes at great distance from the source. Thus, it is important to have a system to monitor even the most remote volcanoes. The Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) on the Terra spacecraft and other satellite sensors provide imagery that is critical to the globa

Facing tomorrow’s challenges—U.S. Geological Survey science in the decade 2007–2017
Executive SummaryIn order for the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to respond to evolving national and global priorities, it must periodically reflect on, and optimize, its strategic directions. This report is the first comprehensive science strategy since the early 1990s to examine critically major USGS science goals and priorities.The development of this science strategy comes at a time of global t

Landsat Image Mosaic of Antarctica (LIMA)
For most of us, Antarctica was at best a distant acquaintance. Now, with the Landsat Image Mosaic of Antarctica (LIMA), we are on intimate terms. In stunning, up-close and personal detail, LIMA brings Antarctica to life.
Explore this virtually cloudless, seamless, most geometrically accurate, and highest resolution satellite mosaic of Antarctica.
A team of scientists from the U.S. Geological
