Genealogies of Earth System thinking
Nature Reviews Earth & Environment, 2020In the first half of the 20th century, the Earth was already envisioned as a system of interacting parts intertwined with human cultural evolution. Historical sources of Earth Systems thinking can still be relevant in light of current and future trajectories, and may offer insights to inform and rethink present-day discourses and strategies.

Climate research today is ultimately driven by the need for a better understanding of the impacts of human activities on ecological, hydrological and socioeconomic systems. Theory and model development and testing are required in order to understand climate itself, and its impacts.

Earth system models are important research tools for improving understanding of the climate system and for simulating climate projections. This chapter is devoted to the basic construction principles and challenges of such models, whereas application examples are provided in companion chapters. Since they still do not incorporate the full complexity of

10Be and 14C in the Earth system
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1987Abstract In a very short period of time, 10Be data have significantly improved our knowledge in various fields of Earth and planetary sciences. Examples are: (a) solar modulation of isotope production, revealed in 10Be ice-core profiles; (b)geomagnetic m odulation of isotope production, revealed in 10Be ice-core (from the past 10 ka ...

Earth systems engineering and management
IEEE Technology and Society Magazine, 2000The impact of human activities on natural systems has grown to the point that we need to engage consciously in earth systems engineering and management. I address why this is the case, and what I mean by such a provocative term. In addition, I explore what we can learn from relevant experience, and how this daunting task should be approached.

Earth System Science Sentiments
Science, 2001I am in almost complete agreement with John Lawton's discourse on “Earth system science” (Editorial, 15 Jun., p. [1965][1]). However, I was taken aback by the obvious lack of reference to geology as a constituent. By definition alone, geology should have been featured prominently in the discussion.
