Big data in Earth science: Emerging practice and promise. (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38484080/)
These scientists used lots of information collected from Earth and satellites to learn more about our planet. They had really detailed models to help them understand things better. They looked at a lot of data about water on Earth, the oceans, and the atmosphere. This data helped them solve important problems in science, like making sure their results could be checked by others and turning raw data into useful information. By using all this big data, the scientists were able to learn more about how Earth works and make better predictions for the future. It's like having a digital twin of Earth to help us understand what's happening now and what might happen next.
