Flood Potential in Africa What is SERVIR? Improve environmental management and resilience to climate change by strengthening the capacity of governments and other key stakeholders to integrate earth observation information and geospatial technologies into development decision-making Remote Sensing Data/Models Online Maps Visualizations Decision Support Training/Capacity Building Partnerships Training and Capacity Building Flood Potential in Africa (NASA/GSFC) SERVIR Network Fire Forecasting in Mesoamerica

SERVIR-East Africa & Water Flood Monitoring Tools Soil Moisture: Short-Term Forecast Stream Flow: Historic, Real Time, Short-Term Forecast Seasonal Hydrologic Forecasts (future)

SERVIR-Himalaya & Water Bhutan Water Resource Assessment using IPCC Climate Change Scenarios and a Distributed Hydrologic Model Satellite Derived Snow Cover Datasets Help Decision Makers with Real-time Snowpack Conditions

SERVIR-Mesoamerica & Water Monitoring Freshwater Lakes Flood Monitoring and Post-Disaster Assessments Detecting and Monitoring High Chlorophyll Concentration in the Ocean

Opportunities Expand hydrologic model to other regions beyond East Africa with active end-user engagement Expand Bhutan study area for potential impacts of climate change on agriculture and water supply Strengthen relationship with World Bank/GFDRR in context of water-related disasters for improved assessment and early warning
