NATIONAL/INTERNATIONAL
|
|
A worldwide scientific community that advances, through
unselfish cooperation in research, the understanding of Earth and space for
the benefit of humanity. |
|
|
Part of DOE's effort to resolve scientific uncertainties
about global climate change with a specific focus on improving the
performance of general circulation models (GCMs) used for climate research
and prediction. These improved models will help scientists better understand
the influences of human activities on the earth's climate. |

The NASA Space Shuttle Earth Observations Photography
database of over 250,000 images is a national treasure . We are publishing
these selected photos and related captions on the Internet to provide a
glimpse of this national treasure to the public. |

International
Council for Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI) |
|
|
|
The international environmental agency for local
governments. We know from concrete experience that local actions can have a
global impact. |
|
|
Canada's source for meteorological information. We are
also a source of research and advice on climate, atmospheric science, air
quality, ice, water quantity and other environmental issues. |
|
|
Supports a broad range of space-related research by
scientists in many departments at MIT |
|
|
Manages environmental data in the fields of marine geology
and geophysics, paleoclimatology, solar-terrestrial physics, solid earth
geophysics, and glaciology (snow and ice). |
|
|
Creates and distributes a variety of products that use
remotely sensed data in support of the hydrological services mission of the
National Weather Service. The National Weather Service issues river and flood
forecasts for the Nation and provides hydrometeorlogical data and products to
support the Nation's water resource managers. |
|
|
Research focuses on observing and modeling the physical
processes that control the nature and distribution of sea ice, the structure
and circulation in high latitude oceans, and the interactions among air,
ocean, and ice. Of particular interest is the relationship between polar
regions and the global climate system. |
|
|
Comprehensive information and nice graphics. |
|
|
This section aims to give you an idea of how stars behave,
how their energy is generated and something of an idea about their origin and
life cycle. This section also includes a wide range of interesting pictures
of galaxies and related phenomena that can be observed in the universe
through telescopes. |
