Abstract: |
To guarantee the ability of military equipment and soldiers to execute multiple military tasks under any circumstance in the world, the Environmental Science Division of U.S. Army Research Laboratory and Geography and Environmental Engineering Department of U.S. Military Academy were funded by Army Research Office to find the best natural environment conditions to achieve the maximum benefit for field testing of equipment and materials and army training—namely studying the scientific characterization of extreme environment selection. The U.S. military developed geographic analysis to improve scientific criterion for testing and training with the help of natural environment, representing the ability of the experimental site to support the experimental tasks under any circumstance. The eight-step method has been developed for geographic analysis. The authority of research results lies in its connection of field testing and military actions with geographical conditions. It can provide reference for the scientific evaluation of the natural environmental test site in China. |
