SUMMARY:NOAA Seminar Series: Internship Opportunity in Hydrometeorology Field Campaign
DESCRIPTION:Title: Internship Opportunity in Hydrometeorology Field Campaign \nSpeaker: Jake Longenecker\, NOAA EPP/MSI CESSRST-II Fellow at CUNY \nDate: February 22\, 2024 \nTime: 1:00 PM ET \nVenue: Virtual \nMeeting Link : https://meet.google.com/ioi-iwdk-rzc \nPhone Number\n(‪US‬)‪+1 516-226-0191‬\nPIN: ‪453 865 403#‬ \nLearn more about the speaker \nAbstract: \nAs part of the NOAA Study of Precipitation\, the Lower Atmosphere and Surface for Hydrometeorology (SPLASH) campaign\, multiple unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) were deployed to the East River Watershed in the area surrounding Gothic\, CO. This work focuses on co-located ground-based measurements to improve the sensing of these aircraft\, determine the efficacy of the UAS datasets\, and improve future collection efficiency. To achieve these goals an optimal sampling frequency must be determined\, ground-based measurements must be contemporaneously collected\, cleaned\, and compared against the UAS data\, and remotely sensed satellite data must be analyzed. Preliminary analysis has given rise to speculation about UAS dataset accuracy but has also informed a way forward to improve the UAS systems. Working directly with the UAS flight and optics teams we intend to improve their systems by the end of the SPLASH campaign with the goal to have these instruments flight ready for all future NOAA missions. \n

SUMMARY:NOAA Seminar Series: Remote Sensing of Colored Dissolved Organic Matter (CDOM) in Coastal Water
DESCRIPTION:Title: Remote Sensing of Colored Dissolved Organic Matter (CDOM) in Coastal Water \nPresenter(s): Alana Menendez\, CESSRST-II \nDate: Thursday\, February 22 · 1:35 – 2:05 pm EST \nGoogle Meet joining info \nVideo call link: https://meet.google.com/amx-djda-bdb  \nOr dial: ‪(US) +1 434-886-0106‬ PIN: ‪754 062 498‬# \nMore phone numbers: https://tel.meet/amx-djda-bdb?pin=7736783692268 \nLearn about Speaker : Alana Menendez \nAbstract: Long Island Sound (LIS) estuary is dynamic in space and time\, with biogeochemical transformations occurring from anthropogenic\, river\, and marine sources\, with tidal\, seasonal\, and interannual variability. Colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) is both a tracer of these processes\, and an integral component that impacts carbon cycling\, nutrient cycling\, hypoxia\, light penetration\, and water color. This research represents the first analysis evaluating atmospheric correction techniques for Landsat-8 in LIS based on an extensive dataset of above-water radiometry in and around LIS waters. Secondly\, using a robust dataset of CDOM absorption from in situ water samples collected in LIS\, algorithms for retrieving this parameter fromLandsat-8 remote sensing reflectance are evaluated. This research provides preliminary results and a framework for continued analysis on the use of high spatial resolution ocean color satellite sensors in LIS for retrieving CDOM\, and ultimately dissolved organic carbon (DOC). This will allow for monitoring CDOM and DOC across the river-estuary interfaces of LIS dating back to 2013(launch of Landsat-8)\, which will contribute to a better understanding of the controls on LIS carbon cycling and water quality.

SUMMARY:NOAA Seminar Series: Federal Climate Research Network Regional Boundaries
DESCRIPTION:Title: Federal Climate Research Network Regional Boundaries: Not Where\, but Why? \nPresenter(s):  Zachary Paganini\, CESSRST II \nDate : Friday\, February 23 · 1:00 – 1:30 pm EST \nGoogle Meet joining info \nVideo call link: https://meet.google.com/oxm-yhpz-doh  \nOr dial: ‪(US) +1 321-209-6385‬ PIN: ‪772 993 275‬# \nMore phone numbers: https://tel.meet/oxm-yhpz-doh?pin=4150785920930 \nLearn about Speaker:  Zachary Paganini\,  \nAbstract:  \nThe project responds to inquiries from U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP)stakeholders and funders for an explanation of the origins of\, functions of\, and reasons for differences in the regional boundaries of different federal climate research networks. This research explores six federal climate research networks through mapping analysis\, document and literature review\, and interviews with program managers and directors at federal climate research networks to explain why these differences exist and what functions they serve. The research revealed that while federal climate research networks share a common goal of delivering accurate and actionable climate data to stakeholders across multiple scales\, differences in where networks draw their capacity from and what specific sectors networks focus on delivering information to not only explain but necessitate differences in federal climate research networks’ regional boundaries.

SUMMARY:NOAA Seminar Series: Detection of seal pups and polar bears in multispectral imagery
DESCRIPTION:Title:  Detection of seal pups and polar bears in multispectral imagery \nPresenter(s): Juanita Jimenez\, \nDate: Friday\, February 23 · 1:35 – 2:05 pm EST \nGoogle Meet joining info \nVideo call link: https://meet.google.com/ejj-kthh-sje  \nOr dial: ‪(US) +1 914-893-5689‬ PIN: ‪679 479 638‬# \nMore phone numbers: https://tel.meet/ejj-kthh-sje?pin=5439818462517 \nAbout Speaker:  Juanita Jimenez \nAbstract: The Polar Ecosystems Program at the Alaska Fisheries Science Center’s Marine Mammal Laboratory is responsible for estimating the abundance and distribution of ice-associated seals of Alaska. They conducted large-scale fixed-wing surveys of the sea ice in the Bering\, Chukchi\, and Beaufort seas in a collaborative effort with the US Fish and Wildlife Service to include polar bears in this effort\, and international researchers to accurately assess transboundary population estimates. These surveys result in the collection of hundreds of thousands of aerial images of the sea ice from airborne color (RGB)\, thermal infrared (IR)\, and ultraviolet (UV) cameras. Machine learning models can be used to identify ringed seals\, bearded seals\, and polar bears in the imagery. The objective of this NOAA Experiential Research and Training Opportunity\, NERTO was to utilize the annotated UV\, IR\, and color imagery to develop a detection model to find polar bears and white coat seal pups in multispectral imagery. During the summer\, we started the development of a processing workflow\, first using ENVI and then with MATLAB to process these images. The approach being pursued looks at building a five band multispectral data cube by first registering the images and stacking them into a three-dimensional array. Once the images are aligned\, animal signatures can be used to detect the presence of mammals in the scene. The goal of the NERTO\, was to identify the workflow that NOAA needs to extract spectral signatures using the UV\, IR\, and color images. The final goal is to build a model to find the animals in the sea ice by processing these cubes. Follow up work will be pursued as part of my master’s project at UTEP.
