Through internship at NASA, Mizzou Engineer finds satellite imagery key to monitoring environmental changes
The ice that used to cover roughly 85% of Alaska is thawing, causing ground to collapse and putting communities at risk. Jaweed Nazary, a Ph.D. student in civil and environmental engineering, has found that satellite imagery is key to pinpointing exactly which locations are most susceptible to these changing conditions.
Graduate student to use environmental engineering, data analysis skills at NASA
