What is the NICES Program?
National Information System for Climate and Environment Studies (NICES) The NICES Programme is a joint initiative operated jointly by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and the Department of Space.
Launched in 2012, NICES operates within the framework of the National Action Plan on Climate Change.
It aims to foster the involvement of Indian researchers in addressing challenges related to climate change through multidisciplinary scientific investigations.
Focus Areas:
- NICES focuses on areas such as Space-based Essential Climate Variables (ECVs) and Climate Indicators, Climate Change Challenges, Weather Extremes, and Climate Services.
Activities held under the NICES Program:
- NICES invites project proposals from Indian scientists, academicians, and researchers associated with governmental organizations, recognized institutions, universities, and departments which are expected to be completed within 3 years from the date of sanction.
Objective and Functionality:
- The primary objective of the NICES Programme is to generate and broadcast the long-term Essential Climate Variables (ECVs) achieved from Indian and other Earth Observation (EO) satellites, including spanning terrestrial, oceanic, and atmospheric domains.
