Public-private partnerships offer opportunities to expand earthquake early warning networks, according to a new SciencePerspective. Learn more ➡
Observations of physical Earth processes used to be the exclusive domain of governmental agencies. In the United States, NASA satellites observe surface changes, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration buoys monitor the ocean and the atmosphere, and US Geological Survey seismometers detect earthquakes, allowing scientists to tackle questions that were unimaginable before these observational networks were built.
Today, much larger observational networks exist in the private sector that could also be harnessed to study Earth processes and reduce the impact of natural hazards. The development of public-private partnerships is therefore increasingly key for Earth scientists to use the complete observational dataset needed to answer fundamental scientific questions and solve societal challenges.View all available purchase options and get full access to this article.
