Humans in the Earth System
Session ID#: 80451
Session Description:
Earth system models bridge the gap between observations and theory by providing a common framework to study the stresses of global change on the biosphere and climate, although representations of human activities are limited. There also is a related underexploited opportunity to explore the interactions between the biophysical and biogeochemical Earth System and human systems through closer coordination of in-situ and space-based observations. In this session, we are seeking contributions from interdisciplinary modeling and observation groups linking physical and social systems sciences for the rigorous quantification of feedbacks and attribution of human activity on the coupled biogeochemical and physical Earth system. Contributions from Earth System Modeling and Integrated Assessment Modeling groups on analysis of coupled climate, land use, and societal dynamics in CMIP6 projections are encouraged. We also encourage contributions with other perspectives and methods on how to bridge the physical-social science divide in global change research.
