environmental forecasting
Environmental forecasting involves predicting future changes in the environment, such as weather patterns, climate conditions, or natural hazards. Using scientific data, models, and technology, experts analyze trends to anticipate events like storms, temperature shifts, or pollution levels. These forecasts help communities prepare for and mitigate potential impacts on health, safety, and ecosystems. It's similar to how weather forecasts inform daily plans but focuses on broader environmental processes to support informed decision-making and sustainability.
