Hey there gang,
I am on my trip and had some time in the airplane to compose a definition. I will send the whole working definition on to you via email, but here it is on the blog for you to consider. I am not a blogger so let's hope this works. Check your emails for a graphic I was thinking about as well.
Smiles, Joyce
Working ESS definition for Celestial Islands:
Earth systems science is the interdisciplinary approach of studying the earth as a system. Such an approach involves studying the processes and interactions(cycles) among the 5 spheres: the atmosphere, geosphere(lithosphere), hydrosphere, biosphere, and cryosphere. ESS involves studying these spheres from a global to a local point-of-view and over timescales(eons to minutes).
