We support research into our world's frozen
realms: the snow, ice, glacier, frozen ground, and climate interactions
that make up Earth's cryosphere. Scientific data, whether taken in
the field or relayed from satellites orbiting Earth, form the foundation
for the scientific research that informs the world about our planet
and our climate systems. |
