01.02.2010 - NCEO researchers at the University of Oxford are investigating the ground deformation associated with the recent devastating Haiti earthquake.
15.01.2010 - Rising temperatures linked to global warming are not just a sign of climate change but are a cause of it, a study shows.
The National Centre for Earth Observation is a partnership of scientists and institutions, from a range of disciplines, who are using data from Earth observation satellites to monitor global and regional changes in the environment and to improve understanding of the Earth system so that we can predict future environmental conditions.
Our Vision is to unlock the full potential of Earth observation to monitor, diagnose and predict climate and environmental changes, ensuring that these scientific advances are delivered to the wider community embedded in world class science.
Research results from the first year of NCEO were presented at our 2009 Annual Science Meeting - see http:///www.nceo.ac.uk/science2009_presentations/nceo_poster_science_2009.html and http://www.nceo.ac.uk/science2009_presentations/nceo_science_2009.html
NCEO researchers at the University of Oxford are investigating the
ground deformation associated with the devastating recent Haiti
earthquake using satellite radar measurements. They hope to more
accurately locate the fault that ruptured in this event in order to
improve our understanding of faulting and seismic hazard. Please see http://www.earth.ox.ac.uk/~johne/haiti_eq
for more information.
