The probe's five-year mission is the cornerstone of a NASA science program called Living with a Star, which aims to help scientists better understand aspects of the sun-Earth system that affect our lives and society.
The loss of observations of key Earth system components and processes will weaken the ability to understand and forecast changes arising from interactions and feedbacks within the Earth system and limit the data and information available to users and decision makers.
But if the hazard information provided as input is inadequate, estimates of risk will be inaccurate, " said workshop director Abdelkrim Aoudia of ICTP's Earth System Physics section, adding, "Therefore, this workshop will focus specifically on issues that can lead to erroneous estimates of seismic hazard.
Noting that we are now in a new geological epoch, the Anthropocene, as humans are the major changing force of the Earth system, she explained that the answers provided by technological solutions can only go so far it they do not come with social transformation as well.
While presently only 0.03 TW of energy was extracted from wind in 2008, and there is room for a considerable expansion of this technology with relatively insignificant effects on the climate, any future expansion on a global scale must take account that the potential for extraction of wind energy is finite according to the nature of the Earth system.
