Earth Science Data Access and Integration at the Nexus of Science, Policy, and Society

Explore the challenges and opportunities of integrating Earth science data with diverse data sources in this comprehensive AGU conference talk. Delve into the growing volumes of Earth science data enabling unprecedented studies of Earth system dynamics and their changes over time. Learn about near-real-time data provision facilitating monitoring and forecasting tools with various societal applications. Discover the need for further integration of environmental data with sources characterizing demographics, socio-economic characteristics, movements, and health status of human populations. Examine the potential for novel transdisciplinary research and applications, while addressing significant challenges such as data access, format harmonization, and conceptual frameworks for analysis and modeling. Gain insights from Michael C Wimberly of South Dakota State University, who serves as both the primary convener and chair of this 1 hour 49 minute session focused on Earth science data access and integration at the intersection of science, policy, and society.
