With the advancements in sensing technology, we now observe petabytes of data related to climate and the environment. While the volume of data is impressive, collecting big data for the sake of data alone proves to be of limited utility. Instead, our quest is for actionable data that can drive tangible actions and meaningful impact. Yet, unearthing actionable insights from the accumulated big data and delivering them to global stakeholders remains a burgeoning field. Although traditional data mining struggles to keep pace with data accumulation, scientific evolution has spurred the emergence of new technologies like numeric modeling and machine learning. These cutting-edge tools are now tackling grand challenges in climate and the environment, from forecasting extreme climate events and enhancing environmental productivity to monitoring greenhouse gas emissions, fostering smart environmental solutions, and understanding aerosols. Additionally, they model environmental-human interactions, inform policy, and steer markets towards a healthier and more environment-friendly direction. While there's no universal solution to address all these formidable tasks, this book takes us on a guided journey through three sections, enriched with chapters from domain scientists. Part I defines actionable science and explores what truly renders data actionable. Part II showcases compelling case studies and practical use scenarios, illustrating these principles in action. Finally, Part III provides an insightful glimpse into the future of actionable science, focusing on the pressing climate and environmental issues we must confront. Embark on this illuminating voyage with us, where big data meets practical research, and discover how our collective efforts move us closer to a sustainable and thriving future. This book is an invitation to unlock the mysteries of our environment, transforming data into decisive action for generations to come. 001483900 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed November 16, 2023). 001483900 650_6 $$aSciences de l'environnement$$xInformatique. 001483900 650_6 $$aClimat$$xChangements$$xInformatique. 001483900 650_0 $$aEnvironmental sciences$$xData processing.$$xEnvironmental aspects$$0(DLC)sh 89004718 001483900 650_0 $$aClimatic changes$$xData processing.$$xClimatic factors$$0(DLC)sh 92005008 001483900 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001483900 7001_ $$aSun, Ziheng. 001483900 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aSun, Ziheng$$tActionable Science of Global Environment Change$$dCham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2023$$z9783031417573 001483900 852__ $$bebk 001483900 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-41758-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001483900 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1483900$$pGLOBAL_SET 001483900 980__ $$aBIB 001483900 980__ $$aEBOOK 001483900 982__ $$aEbook 001483900 983__ $$aOnline 001483900 994__ $$a92$$bISE
