Advances in computing combined with new methods enable scientists to collect, analyse, compare and display vast amounts of data, allowing work in areas that previously were inaccessible scientifically, including across disciplinary boundaries. In environmental science, new areas are emerging, improving our understanding of hazards, weather and climate, or how genetics shapeshttps://www.digital-science.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/Open-Data-Open-Science-1024x647-1.jpg
