| Title : | Ecosphere : abrupt climate change research and recommendations | | Material Type: | ISU Team Project reports | | Publisher: | International Space University | | Publication Date: | 2003 | | General note: | xix, 99 p. : ill. ; 30 cm | | Languages : | English (eng) | | Descriptors: | Climatic changes
| | Class number: | QC981.8.C5 | | Abstract: | It is recognised that our environment is changing. Climate change is normally regarded as a gradual process. However, The Earth's climate has shifted abruptly in the past and will do so again in the future. Changes in ocean circulation patterns in the North Atlantic could lead to an abrupt change in climate [...]. Space technology plays a key role in environmental monitoring through remote and in-situ Earth observation.
The scope of the report is to provide a detailed account of the scientific nature of ACC and indentifying gaps for essential future scientific research, ECOSPHERE will recommend a system concept design for ACC research. | | Host institution : | International Space University, Strasbourg | | Host country : | France | | ISU program : | Space Studies Program | | Record link: | http://isulibrary.isunet.edu/opac/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=5496 |
