Perceiving our planet as a single entity with hypercomplex, often unpredictable behavior, the authors use Earth system analysis to study global changes past and future. They explore the question of whether the unprecedented human-originated changes transforming the ecosphere today will end a 10,000-year period of climate stability.The book presents the complete story of the inseparably intertwined evolution of life and matter on Earth, focusing on four major topics: long-term geosphere-biosphere interaction and the possibility of using extrasolar planets to test various geophysical hypotheses; the Quaternary Earth System's modes of operation; current planetary dynamics under human pressure; and transition to global sustainability. Written by leading figures in the disciplines of geology, climatology, evolution, biogeochemistry, macroeconomics, and institutions theory, Earth System Analysis for Sustainability analyzes the driving forces behind global change and uses this knowledge to propose principles to propose principles for global stewardship. 001386125 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001386125 650_0 $$aEnvironmental sciences$$vCongresses. 001386125 650_0 $$aSystem analysis$$vCongresses. 001386125 650_0 $$aSustainable development$$vCongresses. 001386125 650_0 $$aHuman ecology$$vCongresses. 001386125 653__ $$aPHYSICAL SCIENCES/General 001386125 653__ $$aENVIRONMENT/General 001386125 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001386125 7001_ $$aSchellnhuber, Hans-Joachim. 001386125 852__ $$bebk 001386125 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/2548.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001386125 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001386125 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1386125$$pGLOBAL_SET 001386125 980__ $$aBIB 001386125 980__ $$aEBOOK 001386125 982__ $$aEbook 001386125 983__ $$aOnline
