Summary and Conclusion
•
Key global science and applications objectives for HyspIRI remain to be
addressed.
– Climate: Ecosystem biochemistry, condition & feedback; spectral albedo;
carbon/dust on snow/ice; biomass burning; evapotranspiration
– Ecosystems: Global biodiversity, plant functional types, physiological condition,
and biochemistry including agricultural lands
– Fires: Fuel status; fire frequency, severity, emissions, and patterns of recovery
globally
– Coral reef and coastal habitats: Global composition and status
– Volcanoes: Eruptions, emissions, regional and global impact
– Geology and resources: Global distributions of surface mineral resources and
improved understanding of geology and related hazards
•
The HyspIRI team continues to refine and prepare mission concepts
opitons that meet these global objectives
• In support of HyspIRI refinement a major airborne campaign is well into its
second year. A third year of acquisitions is planned.
• The HyspIRI team is working to support a path for the soonest space
implementation to address the global objectives.
