Storms are rumbling already through northern parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, & Arkansas – but as the day progresses and daytime heating kicks in – a significant round of severe weather is expected for this afternoon and tonight for Texas and Oklahoma – eventually moving eastward. The EarthCast Global Model forecast of the winds at […]
This presentation is a compilation of material from leaders in the modeling, HPC & remote sensing communities. May you live in interesting times. Confucius Well, we live in interesting times. There is a modestly paced paradigm shift underway in our Modeling Community, influenced by unrelated external factors coming together at the same time. This isn […]
On October 2, 2015, the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) renewed two five-year partnerships with Penn State, one with the Department of Geography in the College of Earth and Mineral Sciences and another with the Applied Research Laboratory (ARL). The partnerships, or cooperative research and development agreements (CRADAs), focus on improving both education for geospatial analysts […]
