How does NISAR mission exemplify international cooperation in space exploration and scientific research? In what ways will it help in climate change monitoring and natural hazard management?

Recently launched NISAR mission is an international collaboration by NASA-ISRO to launch synthetic aperture radar to study earth surface. NISAR exemplifying international co-operation (and scientific below): (1) NASA - ISRO collaboration: ISRO provided launch vehicles (PSLV-3), NASA provided the cameras (cp band camera). (2) Scientific exploration: collaborative work by the two to build components and jointly study earth systems.

NISAR helping climate change monitoring and natural hazard management: (1) Remote sensing data: L/S band images studying variating carbon content of the forests. (2) Weather pattern monitoring: cloud thickness, precipitation, water content. (3) Study of water levels during floods - adequate dredging whilst be facilitated before monsoon. (4) Volcano studies by studying changes in earth's surface - track flood extent. (5) Heat wave management through study on agricultural yield/drought. All these will help in forthcoming adaptive capacity and help risk zonation of vulnerable regions and communities towards better nutrition and adaptability.
