AT: NASA Global Precipitation Measurement Mission 2024 Webinar Series Kickoff

Virtual.  Free.  2024 Webinar Series Kickoff on Thursday February 8th at 7pm CST

To register for the Feb 8th webinar complete registration form here.

NASA’s Global Precipitation Measurement Mission is celebrating 10 years of observational science in a “10-in-10 Webinar Series” for 2024.  Webinar topics will address Earth’s water, protection of water resources, weather and climate extremes, and measurement methods including citizen science project participation.

The Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission is an international network of satellites that provide next-generation global observations of rain and snow. Through improved measurements of precipitation globally, the GPM mission is advancing our understanding of Earth’s water and energy cycle. This improves forecasting of extreme weather events and their impacts to society and ecosystems.  GPM data supports multiple disciplines including ecology, water and agriculture, energy and weather. Effective ecosystem management is critical to maintaining and repairing the natural environments, while conserving and sustaining ecological diversity.  Satellite observations can provide critical information relevant to the distribution of ecosystems and their resident species. Natural resource managers and scientists use this information to understand patterns of biodiversity, how biodiversity is changing, drivers of changes, and to predict impacts of environmental changes on ecological systems.
