Martha Carol Anderson is research scientist with the United States Department of Agriculture. She is known for her work in using satellite imagery to track droughts and their impact on crops. In 2022 she was elected a fellow of the American Geophysical Union.

Education and career

Anderson has a B.A. from Carleton College (1987) and she earned her Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota in 1993. Following her Ph.D., she move to the University of Wisconsin-Madison where she worked first as a postdoctoral reseacher, and then as a associate researcher and assistant scientist. In 2005 she moved to the Agricultural Research Service as a research physical scientist.[1]

Research

Anderson's Ph.D. research was in the field of observational astrophysics where she investigated supernovas.[2][3] She then changed her research focus to the interactions between soils, plants, and the atmosphere[4] and how this is detected using remote sensing. She uses data from satellites to develop models[5][6] that are used to predict droughts and soil moisture stress,[7] and the subsequent impacts on crops.[8]

Awards and honors

In 2022 Anderson was elected a fellow of the American Geophysical Union.[9] In 2022 she also received the John Dalton medal from the European Geosciences Union in recognition of her work on "multi-scale thermal remote sensing to evapotranspiration and drought impact assessments".[10]
