# About **Global Nature Watch** is an experimental, open, AI-powered system that combines peer-reviewed research from Land & Carbon Lab and Global Forest Watch in a simple, chat-style interface.  Users can ask questions in plain language in their own language and receive responses backed by data from Land & Carbon Lab and Global Forest Watch, supported by maps, statistics and context. Integrating near-real-time and annual satellite data, it reveals change across ecosystems, from forests to grasslands, croplands and other landscapes.  As the platform continues to improve, it aims to make monitoring more comprehensive, faster and easier, helping people protect and restore ecosystems, support livelihoods and address climate challenges.  {% embed url="" %} --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
