Clark Labs is pleased to announce the creation of a blog devoted to the exploration of trends in the earth system as seen through the lens of the Earth Trends Modeler software, a new vertical application integrated with the Idrist Taiga software, released in February. Dr. J. Ronald Eastman, Director of Clark Labs, will be the author of this blog.
The Earth Trends Modeler (ETM) is specially designed for the analysis of image time series from earth observing systems. It includes a coordinated suite of data mining tools for the extraction of trends and underlying determinants of variability, of special importance to the analysis of climate change and ecosystem dynamics.
Clark Labs utilizes this tool for much of its change and time series research and development, and in the course of its use, interesting patterns have emerged. This blog is intended as a venue for discussion of such observations. Comments are encouraged.
