Our planet Earth is one of three
terrestrial planets in the Solar system, and is consisted of
solid Earth, atmosphere, hydrosphere, and biosphere, which
has changed continuously with time.
The ESI3
Laboratory in the Department of Geological Sciences at the
University of Manitoba observes and studies the Earth system
with various geophysical tools and Earth orbiting satellites
- which some call "remote sensing" platforms.
Today there are more
than 2000 satellites orbiting Earth, carrying out various
human tasks, including the monitoring and investigation of
the Earth system and surrounding environment. We at the ESI3
laboratory utilize various geophysical tools and airborne
and space-borne sensors to study various aspects of the
Earth system processes.
If you have any questions on what we
are doing, you can contact Prof. Wooil M. Moon or any of the
graduate students in our Laboratory.
