Research opportunities focus on two areas. The first is large-scale (regional to mesoscale) analysis using MM5/PLACE, a coupled hydrologic-atmospheric simulation model developed at Goddard. Research includes (1) the role of large-scale land surface processes in land-atmosphere exchanges, including the effects of soil and vegetation heterogeneity; and (2) the incorporation of satellite remotely sensed data into simulation models. The second area of research focuses on the development of inverse techniques to estimate land surface properties using satellite imagery such as fractional cover and aerodynamic roughness.
