This app uses aggregated NASA EONET data to track:
- Drought conditions (affecting agriculture and livestock, and overall availability of food and water)
- Dust and haze (dust storms, air pollution, non-volcanic aerosols)
- Earthquakes (related to all manner of shaking and displacement)
- Floods (inundation, water extending beyond river and lake extents)
- Landslides (mudslides, avalanche)
- Manmade (i.e. oil well fires, human-induced and extreme in extent)
- Sea and Lake Ice (also icebergs)
- Severe Storms (hurricanes, cyclones, tornadoes, etc.)
- Snow (extreme/anomalous snowfall in either timing or extent/depth)
- Temperature Extremes (anomalous land temperatures, either heat or cold)
- Volcanoes (rock, ash, lava and atmospheric ash and gas plumes)
- Water Color (phytoplankton, red tide, algae, sediment, whiting, etc.)
- Wildfires (forest and plains fires, urban and industrial fire events, manmade or naturally caused)
