TAILIEUCHUNG - EARTH SCIENCE AND APPLICATIONS FROM SPACENATIONAL

The National Research Council was mandated by the government to research the use of space-based observation of the earth in order to determine environmental changes. The committees were asked to determine the questions that should be addressed, taking into account the intended federal and local agencies that would use the data acquired. They then had to prioritize the experiments and observations knowing that it will be impossible to fund them all. The results make extremely sobering reading. This report covers strategies for earth science and applications from space, including natural resources, human health and security, climate change, weather and water. | EARIHSCIEICEib nmiioiis M SPACE NATIONAL IMPERATIVES FOR THE NEXT DECADE AND BEYOND NATIONAL RESEARCH COUNCIL Of THE NATiONAL ACADEMIES EÍIỊỊỊSCỊẸIỊẸỊịịo iPPLICAIIIinS M space NATIONAL IMPERATIVES FOR THE NEXT DECADE AND BEYOND Committee on Earth Science and Applications from Space A Community Assessment and Strategy for the Future Space Studies Board Division on Engineering and Physical Sciences NATIONAL RESEARCH COUNCIL OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMIES THE NATIONAL ACADEMIES PRESS Washington .
