The group is currently active on Climate Change and Remote Sensing and is monitoring the change in growth of vegetation globally. Links to Terra satellite and Earth Observatory. EDC operates the National Satellite Land Remote Sensing Data Archive, a high quality data base of space-acquired images of the Earth for use in studying global change and other related issues. Hydrology Laboratory Research Activities Part of the Natural Resources Institute at Beltsville, MD, the Hydrology Laboratory develops improved methodologies for predicting water yield from and for agricultural lands and for monitoring and evaluating the impact of management practices and large scale environmental changes on water resources. They conduct research on remote sensing technologies of benefit to agriculture, forestry, environmental quality and global climate change concerns.
