Forest Biomass Studied by NISAR Scientists

• The NISAR program, developed by NASA and ISRO, uses a dual-frequency radar system to map the globe every 12 days.
• Scientists are assessing forest biomass in Shivamogga, Nilambur, and Hoshangabad to calibrate NISAR’s mapping.
• The study, led by KUFOS, integrates Lidar, optical, and drone data, focusing on carbon sequestration and forest ecosystem research over 10 years.
