摘要: 数字地球将为地球系统科学研究带来研究方法、研究手段和信息获取渠道的革命。因对地观测和数据资源共享技术的发展将使传统的野外地学作业逐步走向现代化,从而使地球系统科学的建立真正成为可能。本文简要回顾了地球系统科学的发展历程,分析了“数字地球”与地球系统科学的紧密关系,展望了“数字地球”带给地球系统科学研究发展的广阔前景,呼吁尽快建立中国的“数字地球”.

Abstract: The concept of "digital earth" is raised by Al Gore in January, 1998.Now, it is one of the hot topics in theworld.Digital Earth will play a very important role in many fields in our society.Digital earth is one of researching objects for Earth system science in knowledge-economic times.Digital earth will lead to researching methodrevolution in Earth Science.Due to developments of earth-observing techniques and worldwide data share, theywill reduce traditional geo-science’s field work to a great extent, and bring about the modernization in geosciencestudy."Earth system science" may be truly established at that time.In this paper, the authors simply reviewthe development history of geo-sciences, and analyse relationship between "digital earth" and "Earth system science", and picture good future of Earth system science given by digital Earth.At last we appeal to Chinese government for constructing China’s own digital earth as soon as possible.
