LTS International, together with Edinburgh University, Envirotrade, Ecometrica, AELc, Clyde Space, eOsphere, and Selex-Galileo, is working to increase the economic and social impact of the UK Natural Environment Research Council’s outputs. We are looking in particular at ways of taking the cutting edge research currently undertaken at the University on carbon modelling, remote sensing and ecology and translating it for practical usage that meet relevant science and societal needs.
