Hands-on learning while building underwater remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) helps young students connect with marine habitats, and gets them excited about science, math and engineering.
CubeSats, once viewed with skepticism, are changing the way we think about space exploration and Earth observation.
Remotely sensed imagery provides an alternate view of spatial characteristics that in situ measurements typically lack. This is an advantage to utilizing such datasets for the analysis of environmental health vulnerabilities.
NEREUS brings the benefits of space technologies to Europe’s citizens and regions. It serves as an advocate for regional concerns on the utilization of space technologies and is a dynamic platform to facilitate the involvement of its members in European Union-funded projects and activities.
In this article, we argue for a fundamental refocusing of cyberinfrastructure to support climate science and the broader use of climate information. Our ultimate goal is to accelerate the use of state-of-the-art climate information in management and planning.
Giovanni has great potential for the investigation of different public health issues because a large variety of Earth system data variables are available in the system.
Initial pilot study results suggest that climatology maybe used as an early warning system of Visceral leishmaniasis in South Sudan. Remote sensing and health data indicated that below average precipitation and inundation in the transmission period (AMJJ) may correspond with higher disease occurrence in September, October, November and December.
We present two case studies as a way to evaluate the performance of the AirNow Satellite Data Processor (ASDP): a Saharan dust transport event and a wildfire smoke event.
The emergence of zoonotic diseases is ranking highly among public health issues that the World Health Organization, World Organisation for Animal Health, and numerous national organizations, companies and universities are attempting to address. In order to mitigate these types of health risks, they are adopting a multi-sectorial approach of collaboration known as the One World One Health approach.
Can a new kind of website transform how environmental data are collected and shared? The creators of UNEP Live think it just might.
