environmental data
Nature's recorded numbers
Environmental data is information about natural systems and their conditions—air quality, water levels, temperature, pollution concentrations, wildlife populations.
The term appears frequently in scientific research, regulatory contexts, and climate discussions: The EPA collects environmental data from monitoring stations nationwide.
Such data drives policy decisions and tracks ecological changes over time.
