New Funding from NASA-Remote Sensing of Water Quality!

We received a new NASA award for "Understanding and predicting algal blooms across networks of rivers and reservoirs" with collaborators Matthew Ross (CSU), Emily Elliott (Pitt), Jacob Zwart (USGS), Tyler King (USGS), and other USGS collaborators! We will use satellite remote sensing, continuous in-situ sensing, and process guided machine learning to develop databases of chlorophyll-a and algal bloom frequency, extent, and severity along large rivers in the Ohio and Illinois River basins and quantify the conditions over time and space that lead to blooms.
