So excited and proud to be a partner in Tanager-1, the first High-fidelity Imaging Spectrometer, making it to Low Earth Orbit! This mission is the first tech that is analogous to our long-time #GlobalAirborneObservatory of @asnerlab@ASUGlobalFuture@ASUResearch
Big congrats to @DominicaH_ on receiving a Graduate Fellowship from @ICRSCoralReefs - International Coral Reef Society! This fellowship will support Dominica's ongoing research in West Hawaii.
We @AllenCoralAtlas are monitoring coral bleaching from space. The maps here show, in green outlines, where we detect bleaching. These maps are changing fast with each update. Log in and zoom in these green outlines to see the details at 10 m resolution.
🌎🚨BREAKING: @NOAACoral and ICRI confirm the Fourth Global Coral Bleaching Event 🪸
#coralbleaching has now been confirmed in over 53 nations and across all Ocean basins 🌊. This #global event requires global action #ForCoral.

1/4 Aloha, this week we launched a partnership website supporting the new ʻĀkoʻakoʻa Reef Restoration Program for coral reef restoration along the west coast of Hawaiʻi Island. akoakoa.org
New research near shows that identifying and protecting marine ecosystems both down-current and up-current of coral reefs is crucial to future coral conservation and restoration efforts — especially as reefs face the effects of climate change.

Now that the ink has dried, I’m so excited to announce that in Jan 2024 I will be joining the ʻĀkoʻakoʻa Reef Restoration Program with @greg_asner as an assistant research scientist helping to shape how coral restoration will look on West Hawai’i Island!!! @ASU_GDCS#newPI#coral
Congratulations to now Doctor @MegsSeeley on completing her PhD using advanced airborne imaging spectroscopy to explore the functioning and evolution of Hawaiian forests! @ASU_SGSUP@ASU_GDCS
