How NASA Decodes the Secrets of the Arctic - Specialist's Guide

The Arctic is impacted by climate change more than most places on Earth.
To decipher the secrets of the Arctic, NASA resorted to an aerial campaign to study the effects of climate change on the far North Pole. The campaign has mobilized the following aerial instruments.

UAVSAR sends out pulses of radio waves that reflect off of Earth's surface and provide scientists with accurate information on the shape of the land and water surface below – even when viewing through dense vegetation and clouds.
NASA-ISRO Satellite (NISAR), a joint mission between the Indian Space Research Organization and NASA, observes the Earth's landscape, soil, and ice. NISAR is also part of NASA's upcoming Earth System Observatory.

NISAR collects data globally and year-round, allowing research groups like the Arctic Boreal Vulnerability Experiment (ABoVE) to study key processes such as the development of methane emission hotspots, how and where permafrost is thawing, and the long-term consequences of wildfire—even when they can't be there in person.

Why did NASA conduct this research? Because the Arctic is the most vulnerable to the effects of climate change. And what happens in the Arctic will not stop there; it affects the whole Earth where we live.

Warmer temperatures melting permafrost are creating new lakes and new methane hotspots.

Fire has long been a natural part of these ecosystems. But as Earth's climate changes, wildfires in these areas are getting more frequent and severe.
