About

The greatest challenges of the 21st century – climate change, energy, soil degradation, fresh water scarcity, natural disasters, and mineral resource depletion – are all rooted in humanity’s relationship with Earth. Earth sciences are the key to unlocking how our planet functions – its land, oceans, and atmosphere – both now and throughout history. We are not just studying Earth; we are deciphering its fundamental processes to shape a more resilient future.
