Earth System Sciences

Earth System Sciences is the study of how Earth's different parts—like the atmosphere, oceans, land, and living things—interact as a connected system. It looks at how these components influence each other, driving processes such as climate change, weather patterns, and the movement of nutrients. By understanding these interconnected systems, scientists can better predict environmental changes and address issues like pollution, natural hazards, and sustainability. Essentially, it’s a comprehensive approach to studying Earth's complex, dynamic environment to ensure the health of our planet now and in the future.
