(MENAFN- Trend News Agency) NASA released its climate strategy on Wednesday in an effort to
expand agency-wide efforts to counter climate challenges, trend reports citing
xinhua .
The strategy assesses NASA's climate portfolio across the agency
for the first time, extending beyond science and exploration
efforts to include every mission directorate and NASA facility.
The strategy lays out four key priorities for the agency to aide
with the integration of climate across NASA: innovate, inform,
inspire, and partner. The first priority of innovation relies on
continuing NASA's 60-plus years of Earth science studied not only
from space, but also through airborne research, direct measurements
and field campaigns.
"With new missions coming online in 2023 to observe air
pollution (TEMPO), Earth's water to help improve climate models
(SWOT), and the increasing intensity of storms (TROPICS),
NASA-powered observations of our planet are at the core of how we
study the effects of climate change," NASA said in a statement.
"This strategy will help NASA integrate our understanding of
climate across the agency and in our partnerships to better serve
the public," said Kate Calvin, NASA's chief scientist and senior
climate advisor.
