Tracking Deluge And Drought Through Soil Moisture
The changing state of U.S. soils has big implications for farmers and crop production. Our Crop-CASMA soil moisture tool shows how soil has changed over the past year in the U.S. from soaked to dry.
WWAO Passes Baton to U.S. Dept. of Agriculture
We have liftoff! NASA WWAO's new Soil Moisture Data System is operational and has been handed off to its partner, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, as the project comes to a close.
NASA Data Power New Soil Moisture Portal
WWAO's new soil moisture data portal - Crop-CASMA - is live. Crop-CASMA, which provides high-resolution, field-scale soil wetness from NASA satellites in an easy-to-use format, is a collaboration between NASA, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and George Mason University.
When it Comes to Water, Think Global
Planet Earth should be named Planet Water, with 70% of its surface covered in ocean. Yet the freshwater that sustains our lives is a precious resource. NASA is at the forefront of monitoring it from every angle.
