A diverse group of scientists has gathered at ISSI for the workshop “Opening up Earth Observations for Climate Adaptation”. The meeting brings together satellite remote-sensing experts, climate scientists, modellers, social scientists, philosophers, and data practitioners from across the globe. Participants span a wide range of scientific backgrounds and career stages, working on global, regional and local climate impacts, inclusivity, and shaping the global Earth observation (EO) landscape. Their geographic diversity is equally notable, with contributors from Europe, Africa, Asia, the Americas, and the Pacific, reflecting the truly global nature of the challenge.
The current state of Venus is the result of the cumulative effects of many processes from the planet’s formation, and its magma ocean phase up to present-day. Venus’s interior thermal evolution, volcanic, tectonic and outgassing history, as well as interaction with the atmosphere have left clues to piece back together what made Earth and Venus evolve differently. Therefore, due to its position at the inner edge of the Solar System habitable zone (HZ), Venus evolution through time provides insights on surface habitability of rocky exoplanets.
