The Global Water System Project
International Coordination for Integrated Research
The Earth System Science Partnership (ESSP) of DIVERSITAS, IGBP, IHDP and WCRP operates a set of four joint projects to address research questions regarding the global aspects of environments change impacts on water, food, carbon and human health in an integrated way.
Multiple threats, summarized under the heading of global environmental change, and interactions cause perturbations to the global water system, a system that is not well observed, understood, and, due to its complexity, has yielded limited predictability.
The Global Water System Project (GWSP) builds on 25 years of scientific leadership, expertise and the information database of the four global environmental change programmes to create added value results for societal benefits.
