NISAR (NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar) Information

NISAR

NISAR is a joint Earth-observing mission between NASA and the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) with the goal to make global measurements of the causes and consequences of land surface changes using advanced radar imaging. This mission concept and the resulting partnership are in response to the National Academy of Science’s 2007 survey of Earth observational priorities for the next decade, known as the decadal survey. One of the top priorities identified in this survey was to gain data and insight in three Earth science domains: ecosystems, deformation of Earth's crust and cryospheric sciences.

EOS-06 OCM-3 observation

EOS-06 OCM-3 observations reveal a distinct seasonal evolution, intensification and spatial migration of the winter phytoplankton bloom over the Arabian Sea, with bloom initiation occurring in January. The bloom progressively intensifies and expands during February–April, extending from the northern Arabian Sea towards the central and southern regions, approximately from 25°N to 10°N. During this period, pronounced mesoscale eddies...
