The complex interplay of human and environmental health involves a range of issues including increased vulnerability to natural disasters, extreme heat, pathogen transmission, and poor air quality. Using the One Health concept, satellite data offer a unique viewpoint that delivers global information on our entangled aquatic, atmospheric, and terrestrial landscapes that can feed into actionable strategies for mitigating or adapting to these challenges. We encourage submissions that highlight how Earth observations from satellite sensors and complementary datasets help connect public health and air quality sectors and fill knowledge gaps within decision-making frameworks. Possible topics include, but are not limited to, monitoring air pollution, heat, disasters (e.g. dust storms, wildfires), and water- and vector-borne pathogens. Submissions should highlight how Earth science applications can adopt a user-centric approach to meet societal needs, especially for public health and air quality regulation, and expand the scope by scaling local, regional, and global approaches.
