NASA Research Addresses Broad Questions: (1) How are global ecosystems changing. (2) What changes are occurring in global land cover and land use and what are their causes. (3) How is the Earth s surface being transformed and how can such information be used to predict future changes. (4) What are the consequences of land cover and land use change for the sustainability of ecosystems and economic productivity. NASA uses the view from above to monitor our changing home. Different satellites help us study the various systems of the Earth. No one system can do it all. NASA tools and science helps us to understand how the planet is changing and what the changes mean for us.
