BEG Seminar presented by Dr. Fitsume Wolkeba, Postdoctoral Fellow, BEG in person and on Zoom.
Topic: Multi-Scale Water Availability Modeling through Data Integration, Remoting Ssensing, and Machine Learning.
Effective water-resource planning requires connecting available water with climate dynamics and sector-specific water demand. This presentation presents application of satellite remote sensing, hydrological modeling, data analytics and machine learning in estimating water availability across scales. Texas applications examine groundwater depletion, drought, TX municipal water-demand projections, and energy generation water use. Continental and global studies benchmark water-availability estimates, develop satellite-based indicators, and integrate GRACE satellite-based observations into hydrological models using machine learning. Daily evapotranspiration mapping further supports assessment of water use and drivers of droughts. Together, these studies demonstrate how complementary observations and modeling approaches can strengthen water-resource assessment and planning.

Reddit AMA ft. Team REASONDecember, 03 2026Time: 9:00 AM - 11:00 AMLocation: UTIG Seminar Conference Room - 10601 Burnet Road, Bldg. 196/ROC 1.603 Join REASON team members Krista Soderlund and Cyril Grima and UTIG planetary scientist Elizabeth Spiers on reddit.com/r/askspace for an \"Ask me anything!\" about their work on the REASON radar. The REASON team invites members of the Jackson School community to join us in the UTIG Seminar Conference Room - 10601 Burnet Road, Bldg. 196/ROC 1.603 during the AMA to ask questions about our work! REASON is an ice-penetrating radar aboard NASA’s flagship Europa Clipper spacecraft on its mission to explore icy ocean habitats on Jupiter’s moon Europa. Developed by UTIG at the Jackson School of Geosciences, REASON is one of nine instruments aboard Europa Clipper and the only one that can look directly into Europa’s miles-thick icy shell. It’s here that researchers hope to map its structure, search for subsurface water pockets, and help determine if the ocean below could support life. During the week of November 30th, Europa Clipper is set to slingshot around Earth for a crucial gravity assist that will help send the spacecraft toward Jupiter. This is the perfect opportunity for us to discuss REASON’s journey from conception and development, to Earth-bound calibration, validation, its trial run on imaging Mars, and its journey to the final frontier. While the full team is comprised of numerous scientists, we have three members available to answer questions about REASON and Clipper:
