The Earth system comprises a multitude of processes that are intimately meshed through complex interactions. In times of accelerated global change, the understanding and quantification of these processes is of primary importance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The key objective of the proposed Alliance is to prepare the HGF centers and the national\/international science community for the utilisation and integration of bio\/geo-physical products provided by the next generation radar remote sensing missions (e.g. Tandem-L) into the study of natural and anthropogenic impact on Earth\u2019s ecosystems by:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>\n<div>developing new bio\/geo-physical information products from remote sensing data;<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div>integrating the new products into Earth system models;<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div>improving the understanding and modelling of dynamic processes;<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<div>providing a unique forum for the education of a new generation of scientists.<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is a unique opportunity to exploit and widen the expertise of all participating centres and to maximise their role and contribution in the international environmental change science. The Alliance has the potential to change the way ecosystem change is addressed today and this is the reason why it becomes essential and indispensable.<\/p>\n<hr
