Despite a proliferation in spaceborne assets, large knowledge gaps remain due to our inability to adequately monitor critical dynamic processes at relevant spatiotemporal scales and at sufficient quality. The large area/long term persistent monitoring capability of a HAP (High Altitude Platform) coupled with state-of-the-art remote-sensing has the potential to transcend that gap enabling new science […]
