摘要
The community of researchers studying global climate change is preparing to launch the first Earth observing system (EOS) satellite, EOS Terra. The satellite will generate huge amounts of data, filling gaps in the information available to address critical questions about Earth's climate. But many data handling and data analysis problems must be solved if we are to make best use of the new measurements. In key areas, the experience and expertise of the statistics community could be of great help.
