The U. S. Army Soldier Systems Center... envisions a future smart uniform that "will be able to sense the warrior's surroundings and change color to blend in with the environment, or detect and repel chemical agents. "The uniform could also act as a "data-bus, "passing data and information from a wrist-mounted weapon to a helmet-mounted display.... These smart uniforms might also eventually possess micro-climate subsystems to keep the soldier warm in the cold, and cool in a hot environment. They could also have an embedded "physiological status monitoring system, "to keep track of the soldier's physical health. The data could be transmitted to medics or unit commanders, to watch out for dehydration and other potentially serious medical conditions. 2, record 2, English, - smart%20uniform

The first steps to implementing the approach envisaged for the future were taken with the "Call for Outline Mission Proposals for Earth Watch Partnership" issued in December 1997. Industry was invited to submit proposals for partnership with the Agency and potential user entities. A key element in the evaluation is to assess the self-standing operational capability as the end result. 2, record 3, English, - call%20for%20outline%20mission%20proposals

The World Meteorological Organization's(WMO) Global Atmosphere Watch Programme(GAW) has been established to provide information on changes in the chemical composition and related physical characteristics of the atmosphere to improve understanding and to predict future states of the earth's system on a global and regional basis. GAW coordinates the state-of-the-science measurements of the chemical and physical constituents of the atmosphere at levels extending from the surface to the stratosphere and at some of the most difficult locations on earth. These include solar radiation, specifically ultraviolet(UV) radiation, measurements. 1, record 5, English, - chemical%20and%20physical%20constituents%20of%20the%20atmosphere
