Earth System Science Center

The Earth System Science Center (ESSC) studies how Earth's interconnected systems—like the atmosphere, oceans, land, and living things—interact and influence each other. By understanding these complex relationships, the ESSC helps us better understand climate change, natural processes, and environmental changes. Their work involves collecting data, running models, and developing insights to address global challenges, supporting informed decision-making for sustainability and environmental protection. Essentially, the ESSC aims to deepen our knowledge of Earth's systems to help preserve the planet for future generations.
