Description

This poster highlights the JPL missions that provide important inputs to research on volcanoes, fires, earthquakes, droughts, tsunamis, floods and hurricanes. Each year these and other natural events threaten lives and livelihoods, and result in tragic deaths and billions of dollars in damage worldwide. JPL missions provide global data that enhance our assessment and predictive capabilities to better anticipate and reduce the risks associated with these events.
