Basic Research in Environmental Sciences

Abstract

Basic research in environmental science possesses three areas: atmospheric science research which enables the Army to use to operational advantage weather effects on combat operations, to include unmanned aerial vehicle employment, from the surface to the boundary layer (~14,000 feet) by possessing a fundamental understanding of the lower atmosphere; terrestrial science research to enable the Army to operate effectively in all military operating environments by understanding fundamental terrain and land-based phenomena; and military habitation science, basic research to allow military power projection that meets operational needs in a sustainable manner.
