Research: Climate Learn More

When climatologists are out in the field – especially in extreme weather conditions – connectivity is critical. Researchers and scientists need to communicate with each other, field bases, and labs hundreds or thousands of miles away. Iridium® delivers these vital communications services and supports climate research with unparalleled performance through robust, weather-resilient solutions. From helping researchers to analyze soil density in remote lands, or track glaciers in isolated oceans, or provide early warnings for natural disasters, Iridium solutions are at the core of climate research and innovation.
