Description:
|
Earth system science aims to identify how this system changes (both over human and geological timescales) and how such changes can be predicted. Reliable prediction requires scientific understanding, which in turn requires models, theories, and date. remote sensing is capable of providing such data on appropriate temporal and spatial scales.
