From Space to Soil- How NASA Sees Forests (SVS14854 - 5 25 GEDI ICESAT SOCIAL FC1)

About

Music: "Overview Effect," Universal Production Music. NASA uses satellite lidar technology to study Earth’s forests, key carbon sinks. The GEDI mission maps forest height and biomass from the ISS, while ICESat-2 fills polar data gaps. Together, they enable a first-of-its-kind global biomass map, guiding smarter forest conservation and carbon tracking.Find out more about NASA’s Earth Sciences Division at https://science.gsfc.nasa.gov/earth.This video can be freely shared and downloaded.
