While the challenges facing society over the next decades are diverse and complex, the next generation of scientists can look forward to a steadily increasing family of space-based observations that will help inform decisions about the environment - both to highlight potential problems and gain the attention of decision-makers, and to illustrate the effects of attempts at mitigation so that we can redirect our efforts into the most useful avenues. In this course, we will explore the key questions facing our planet today, and the relevant data from current and future satellite missions. We will introduce students to Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and other methods for viewing and manipulating.

When Offered Spring.
