India's groundwater crisis threatens food security - A study covered by CNN and AAAS
India's groundwater crisis threatens food security for hundreds of millions according to the research performed by LCLUC PI Dr. Meha Jain and her team. Groundwater depletion is becoming a global threat to food security, yet the ultimate impacts of depletion on agricultural production and the efficacy of available adaptation strategies remain poorly quantified.

NASA ARSET Training - Introduction to Population Grids and their Integration with Remote Sensing Data for Sustainable Development and Disaster Management
DESCRIPTION
Population distribution data are essential for planning and decision-making in regions faced by crisis or conflict, and they are also useful for monitoring progress towards the sustainable development goals (SDGs). Decision-makers need to know where people are located, what conditions they are facing, what infrastructure is available, and what basic services they can access. And we also need to ensure that no one is left off the map in pursuit of the SDGs or in response to disasters.
