ISLSCP (International Satellite Land Surface Climatology Project)

The International Satellite Land Surface Climatology Project (ISLSCP) is an international effort to collect, analyze, and share satellite data related to Earth's land surface and climate. It aims to understand how land areas influence weather, climate patterns, and environmental changes by providing comprehensive datasets. These datasets help scientists study processes like plant growth, soil moisture, and temperature over large regions, improving climate models and environmental management. Ultimately, ISLSCP enhances our ability to observe and predict climate trends and land surface interactions on a global scale.
