Nowadays, planet Earth faces the possibility of rapid environmental change, including climate change, deforestation, desertification, ozone depletion, and acid rain. Such changes would have a profound impact to all nations.<BR>However, we do not fully understand their long-term implications. For example, magnitude and timing of global warming are quite uncertain.<BR>At present, it is difficult to quantify certain process at many temporal and spatial scales. We need to develop a clearer picture of regional as well as global processes.<BR>Remote sensing from space can provide the global, repeatable, continuous observations of processes needed to understand the Earth system as a whole.<BR>EOS (Earth Observing System) program is a NASA-initiated concept that uses space-based measurement systems to provide the scientific basis for understanding global change.<BR>The Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER), developed by the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI), is a research facility instrument to be installed on NASA's EOS AM-1 platform in 1998. The primary science objective of the ASTER mission is to improve understanding of the local-and regional-scale processes occurring on or near the Earth's surface and lower atmosphere, including surface-atmosphere interactions.
