Agriculture & Climate
STATUS: ACTIVE
What we do: Build relationships with agriculture and climate communities and seek expertise to co-develop effective data systems and solutions.
Why we do it: Bridging the gap between climate science and farming is needed to protect our food systems and ensure long-term agricultural resilience.
Attribution
The main priorities of the Agriculture and Climate Cluster are to develop a collaborative relationship with the agriculture and climate communities, specifically those that focus on the effects of climate change on agriculture; to deeply understand the needs of these communities; to leverage the scientific and technological expertise of the ESIP membership and, working together with these communities, to integrate appropriate data systems and data management (e.g., archiving, services, stewardship) solutions into their existing environments.
