Abstract: | The support given by Earth observation data and Earth system science play an increasingly important role in global change,regional sustainable development,extreme events,and the development of social and economic needs.This field is also moving towards systematization,platforms,and standardized development.In December 2015,nearly 200 parties of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change agreed in Paris to make arrangements for global action in response to climate change by 2020.China jointly issued a climate change adaptation strategy for cities in 2016 and then elevated national action to respond to climate change.China's Earth Observation and Earth Science development is facing new challenges as it supports the national civil space infrastructure and high-resolution Earth observation system. |
