Some Recent Advances and Applications of Infrared Detector Technology at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory

The Jet Propulsion Laboratory has a long history in the development and application of infrared detector technology for the exploration of our planetary system. We will describe some recent applications of IR detector technology at JPL for ground based astronomy, the Earth Observing System, the Cassini Mission to Saturn, and the other proposed planetary missions. The infrared detector technologies to be discussed include single element, multiplexed linear and staring arrays, using a wide variety of infrared sensing materials including InSb, InGaAs, HgCdTe (PV and PC) and SiAs.

Contesting with the Ganges Water Machine in South Asia: Theory versus Reality

Recently, there has been much interest in how to manage the water resources of the Ganges River Basin (GRB), the cradle of Asian civilization, currently supporting >500 million people. This also includes cleaning up the Ganges river, regarded as one of the most polluted mega-rivers of the world. Historically, the transboundary Ganges river and its tributaries, flowing through India, Nepal, and Bangladesh, have become extensively polluted and disrupted, mostly because of river engineering and increased discharge of industrial and urban waste. Compounding the problem, in the past few decades, intense groundwater abstraction from the GRB aquifers has led to unprecedented groundwater level depletion in some locations. At present, the GRB groundwater levels are strongly influenced by depth-dependent abstraction, which is predicted to intensify in the future, given the increasing water demand. Thus, with impending climate change, designing the coupled river water–groundwater management necessary to meet the goal for sustainable access to clean water for a huge population, has become an arduous challenge.
