Our ability to understand, monitor, and react to climate change is based on our ability to observe ongoing environmental transformations. This information is gathered through monitoring networks on Earth as well as systems of Earth-observing satellites. This data aims to improve our prediction of the effects on agriculture and energy, and the management of weather-related risk. Data is needed for research on health outcomes, changes in the distribution of vector-borne diseases, and air quality. Understanding the potential risks is necessary in order to develop the adaption and mitigation strategies to be undertaken by the United States.
In this blog, I plan to follow developments related to space and climate change.
