The partnership recently approved by MIT Portugal proposes the use of remote sensing products developed and produced at IPMA under the LSA SAF program (namely surface temperature and vegetation parameters) with observations from SMAP (Soil Moisture Active Passive, coordinated by MIT) for the study of energy, water and carbon balance in sub-Saharan Africa. The study will focus on regions particularly vulnerable to climate change where changes in the dominant factors of water and energy exchange between the surface and the atmosphere will have profound implications for water availability and agricultural productivity.
