Regional Earth System prediction: a decision-making tool for sustainability?
While the IPCC will continue to lead Earth System projections for global issues such as greenhouse gas levels and global temperature increase, high-resolution regional Earth System predictions will be crucial for producing effective decisionmaking tools for day-to-day, sustainable Earth System management and adaptive management of resources. Regional Earth System predictions and projections at ...
متن کاملEarth System Governance: Theories and Strategies for Sustainability
While earth system governance can be understood as a political project that engages more and more actors who seek to strengthen the current architecture of institutions and networks at local and global levels, call for participation has emerged in the last two decades as one of the most important topics in development policy and theory debates. While natural disaster comes over, good governance...
متن کاملEnvironment and development. Earth system science for global sustainability: grand challenges.
916 POLICYFORUM T remendous progress has been made in understanding the functioning of the Earth system and, in particular, the impact of human actions (1). Although this knowledge can inform management of spe-cifi c features of our world in transition, societies need knowledge that will allow them to simultaneously reduce global environmental risks while also meeting economic development goals...
متن کاملBig data visual analytics for exploratory earth system simulation analysis
Rapid increases in high performance computing are feeding the development of larger and more complex data sets in climate research, which sets the stage for so-called “big data” analysis challenges. However, conventional climate analysis techniques are inadequate in dealing with the complexities of today’s data. In this paper, we describe and demonstrate a visual analytics system, called the Ex...
متن کاملThe Earth as an Engineering System: Addressing Sustainability through Science, Technology and Policy
We combine insights from the two emerging fields of engineering systems and sustainability science to develop an analytical approach for understanding and managing coupled natural and human systems. The Earth system is characterized with reference to the attributes of engineering systems (real-world existence, artificiality, dynamic properties, hybrid state, and some human control). We argue th...
