Monitoring the Pulse of America's Natural Resources from the Orbiting Carbon Observatory Missions

For over a decade, NASA’s Orbiting Carbon Observatory (OCO) has produced a unique and unexpected data product. Serendipitously, the two missions, OCO-2 and OCO-3, have the ability to observe a faint glow from plant photosynthesis. This signal, called
