​Through the framework of NASA’s Applied Remote Sensing Training (ARSET) program, we dive deep into the spatial and temporal matchmaking of GPS tracking points with dynamic satellite variables. We examine advanced methodologies, such as dynamic Brownian Bridge Movement Models (dBBMM) and Step-Selection Functions (SSF), and demonstrate how environmental covariates—including MODIS surface reflectances, Landsat land cover classifications, and ECOSTRESS evapotranspiration—are extracted along movement trajectories. Furthermore, we showcase open-source software tools and spatial analytics platforms (such as Movebank and Google Earth Engine) that enable ecologists to model habitat selection, assess anthropogenic impacts, and predict species responses to environmental change.

Sea level rise is not uniform across the globe; while global mean sea level serves as a primary indicator of planetary warming, regional variations driven by ocean currents, winds, thermal expansion, and land vertical motion create complex local impacts that coastal planners must navigate.
​Through the framework of NASA’s Applied Remote Sensing Training (ARSET) program, we present an overarching look at how Earth-observing satellite missions track the drivers of sea level variability. We explore how altimetry, gravity measurements, and oceanographic buoys are combined to measure steric changes (density and temperature driven) alongside barystatic changes (ice melt and land water storage additions). Furthermore, we break down how satellite observations help bridge the gap between global climate projections and actionable, regional risk assessments for vulnerable coastal zones.
