“Every observation you contribute as a GLOBE volunteer helps to enhance our understanding of river ice dynamics in cold regions,” says ice scientist Mohamed Abdelkader. He recently published a paper in the journal Remote Sensing that presents a way to integrate GLOBE Observer observations of river ice with satellite data. “By participating in projects like GLOBE Observer, you provide essential data that supports not only scientific research but also operations in hydrology and community safety in these challenging environments.” Watch the video of the conversation with Mohamed about his work below.
