What does it take to build the next generation of Earth observation? 🛰️ Meet the 2026-2030 Landsat Science Team, a group of experts from universities, private industry, and federal and international agencies who advise on the science behind the Landsat program. The team provides analysis and guidance on priority issues like atmospheric correction and calibration, agriculture and vegetation monitoring, snow and aquatic systems, wildland fires, volcanoes and geothermal systems, and more. The team’s work helps guide Landsat 10, planned to launch in 2031. The new satellite will carry 26 spectral bands and feature enhanced resolution, continuing a 54-year legacy of Earth observation. Here's a look at what some of our scientists are working toward: 🌽 Tracking exactly how much water crops are using—helping farmers irrigate more efficiently 🔥 Mapping dead and dying vegetation to monitor fire danger and tree mortality 💧 Helping satellites detect harmful algal blooms before they become dangerous ❄️ Improving how we track snow cover in the western U.S.—a critical piece of the nation’s water supply The Landsat science team provides a key advisory role in making sure the program continues to serve farmers, land and water managers, scientists and communities for decades to come. 🔗Learn more about the team: ow.ly/StHN5104kNy 📸: The 2026-2030 Landsat Science Team gathered at USGS National Center in Reston, Virginia, October 2026.

As we enter the final official month of hurricane season, this #FullDiskFriday we are showing daily global composite sea surface temperature anomalies (changes from “average” conditions) mapped on top of an image from @NOAA's #GOESEast (#GOES19) 🛰️. This image shows warmer-than-average waters in the equatorial Pacific Ocean, where an active El Niño is influencing ocean temperatures.

This jellyfish is invisible! Well, kind of. Being transparent in the deep sea can be a challenge: If you’ve eaten any glowing animals recently, their bioluminescence can warn your next prey of your approach. Red internal coloration helps block that light from shining through.

The world is heating up. And a hotter planet means more extreme weather and greater disaster risks. Reducing emissions and building resilience are needed like never before. ➡️ ow.ly/T2I75104ch9 #OurResilientFuture

High tide flooding is possible this month at locations nationwide November 22nd - 27th due to above-normal tides and water levels caused by the full moon and perigean spring tide (when the Moon is closest to the Earth).

POLAR VORTEX VS. EL NIÑO: WHY POLAR VORTEX DISRUPTION MAY NOT LEAD TO COLDER TEMPS: The Polar Vortex has been disrupted at the earliest point in a calendar year on record. However, temperatures will remain warmer than average across the Lower 48 over the next few days thanks to warm Pacific air being ushered in by El Niño. Watch FOX Weather for more details on what this could mean heading into December:
