Earth Science Enterprise (ESE)

The term 'Earth Science Enterprise (ESE)' as it applies to the area of Earth observation can be defined as ' International research program to understand our planet's environment as a system. A major challenge of ESE is to observe, understand, model, assess, and eventually predict global change. Meeting this challenge will help to evaluate the impact that human activity (e.g., clearing forests and burning fossil fuels) has on our environment, and to distinguish human-induced changes from the effects of natural events (e.g. volcanic eruptions, erosion)'.
