NOAA
A United States federal agency responsible for weather, ocean and coastal observation and forecasting. It operates one of the world's largest weather satellite and numerical forecasting systems.
Timeline (last 90 days)
The U.S. NOAA's DMSP-OLS and later Suomi NPP VIIRS satellites can capture the intensity of artificial light sources on the ground at night, and VIIRS has a spatial resolution of about 500 meters.
NOAA data shows that the frequency of high-tide flooding events along coastal areas across the United States has increased by more than 300% since the 1950s.
Projects such as Google Flood Hub and NOAA's National Water Model are exploring physics-informed neural network approaches, using machine learning to accelerate the solving of physical equations.
According to NOAA statistics, the United States experienced an average of more than 20 weather disaster events per year with losses exceeding $1 billion between 2020 and 2023.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) uses the Degree Heating Weeks (DHW) metric to monitor and provide early warnings of coral bleaching risk.
The study used the GSHHG high-resolution coastline dataset provided by NOAA, maintained by Paul Wessel and Walter H.F. Smith.
