Scientists need extremely precise positions for experiments such as tracking the motion of a tectonic plate. The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space-based global navigation satellite system that provides reliable location and time information in all weather and at all times and anywhere on or near the Earth.
A global positioning system (GPS) is used to measure distances from one place to another.
The global positioning system is a network of 24 satellites plus ground based receivers.
Global Positioning System
Global Positioning System
Scientists use a network of satellites called the global positioning system to measure the rate of tectonic plate movement
radio waves
by measuring it for them
It is a system of satalites; radio signals are beamed for these satalites to GPS gound stations, by recording time it takes for GPS ground stations to move a given distance scientist measure speed wich each tectonic plate moves!
global positional system (GPS) is used for finding tracks like tracking earthquakes or navigation too.

Global Positioning Satellite
"Sistema de posicionamiento global" is a Spanish equivalent of "global positioning system."
Global Positioning System (GPS)
Global Positioning Satellite. Actually it is Global Positioning System. but it is virtually the same thing.
Yes, through the use of global positioning systemsscientists use satellite data to predict earthquakes.
Climate scientists and atmospheric scientists are the main experts studying global warming. There are many names for the different aspects of climate study.climatologist: scientists who study weather patterns and climate.meteorologist: scientists who study the weather and how it changes.oceanographers: scientists who study weather and climate based on what is happening in the world's oceans.biologists: scientists that study climate change based on how it is impacting animals.anthropologists: scientists who are studying people, and how climate change may affect our way of life as a civilized society
