It assumes that there is a great deal of uncertainty in environmental systems and holds that there is never a final solution to an earth systems problem.

第57行： − Part of the systems analysis process includes determining the goals of the system. The key components of goal development include the development of a Descriptive Scenario, a Normative Scenario and Transitive Scenario. Essentially, the Descriptive Scenario "describe[s] the situation as it is [and] tell[s] how it got to be that way" (Gibson, 1991). Another important part of the Descriptive Scenario is how it "point[s] out the good features and the unacceptable elements of the status quo". Next, the Normative Scenario shows the final outcome or the way the system should operate under ideal conditions once action has been taken. For the earth systems approach, the "Normative Scenario" will involve the most complicated analysis. The Normative Scenario will deal with stakeholders, creating a common trading zone or location for the free exchange of ideas to come up with a solution of where a system may be restored to or just how exactly a system should be modified. Finally the Transitive scenario comes up with the actual process of changing a system from a Descriptive state to a Normative state. Often, there is not one final solution, as noted in adaptive management. Typically an iterative process ensues as variables and inputs change and the system coevolves with the analysis.+ − − 系统分析过程的一部分包括确定系统的目标。目标制定的关键组成部分包括制定描述性设想方案、规范性设想方案和转移性设想方案。从本质上讲，描述性场景“描述事情的本来面目，并告诉人们事情是如何变成这样的”(吉布森，1991)。描述性情景的另一个重要部分是它如何”指出现状的优点和不可接受的因素”。接下来，规范情景显示了一旦采取了行动，系统应在理想条件下运作的最终结果或方式。对于地球系统方法，“规范情景”将涉及最复杂的分析。规范性设想方案将与利益攸关方打交道，建立一个共同的贸易区或地点，以便自由交换意见，从而提出一个解决办法，确定在哪里可以恢复一个系统，或确切地确定如何修改一个系统。最后，传递性情景提出了将系统从描述性状态改变为规范性状态的实际过程。正如在适应性管理中指出的那样，通常没有一个最终的解决方案。通常，随着变量和输入的变化，迭代过程随之而来，系统与分析协同发展。 − − − − − When examining complex ecosystems there is an inherent need for the earth systems engineer to have a strong understanding of how natural processes function.

ESEM是由少数人发展起来的，其中特别值得一提的是布莱登·艾伦比。艾伦比认为建立ESEM的基础是“如我们所见，地球是人类设计的产物”。<ref name="Allenby, 2005" />事实上，世界上已经没有任何自然系统了，“地球上没有不在人类阴影下的地方”。<ref name="Allenby, 2000" />“因此，问题不是一些人所想的那样：我们是否应该发展ESEM，而是我们已经无意间发展了很长时间。
The issue is whether we will assume the ethical responsibility to do ESEM rationally and responsibly".<ref name = "Allenby, 2005"/> Unlike the traditional engineering and management process "which assume a high degree of knowledge and certainty about the systems behavior and a defined endpoint to the process," ESEM "will be in constant dialog with [the systems], as they – and we and our cultures – change and coevolve together into the future".<ref name = "Allenby, 2005"/> ESEM is a new concept, however there are a number of fields "such as [[industrial ecology]], [[adaptive management]], and [[systems engineering]] that can be relied on to enable rapid progress in developing" ESEM as a discipline.<ref name = "Allenby, 2005"/>

当前的问题是我们是否将负责任地进行ESEM。<ref name="Allenby, 2005" />与传统的“工程和管理过程”不同，传统的工程和管理过程假定对系统行为有高度的了解和确定性，并确定系统发展的终点，但ESEM需要时刻与系统互动，随着他们（以及我们和文化）一起改变和共同进化。<ref name="Allenby, 2005" />ESEM是一个新概念，但已有许多相关领域，如工业生态学、适应性管理和系统工程，我们可以依靠这些领域快速发展ESEM成为一门学科。<ref name="Allenby, 2005" />
The premise of ESEM is that science and technology can provide successful and lasting solutions to human-created problems such as environmental pollution and climate-change. This assumption has recently been challenged in ''Techno-Fix: Why Technology Won't Save Us or the Environment''.<ref name=":0">Huesemann, Michael H., and Joyce A. Huesemann (2011).

ESEM可行的前提是，科学和技术可以为环境污染和气候变化等人为问题提供成功和持久的解决方案。但这一假设最近在Techno-Fix中受到了挑战。<ref name=":0" />

=== Adaptive management ===
=== Adaptive management ===
[[Adaptive management]] is a key aspect of ESEM. Adaptive management is a way of approaching environmental management. It assumes that there is a great deal of uncertainty in environmental systems and holds that there is never a final solution to an earth systems problem. Therefore, once action has been taken, the Earth Systems Engineer will need to be in constant dialogue with the system, watching for changes and how the system evolves. This way of monitoring and managing ecosystems accepts nature's inherent uncertainty and embraces it by never concluding to one certain cure to a problem.

'''适应性管理'''是ESEM的一个主要研究内容。适应性管理是一种接近环境管理的方式。它假设环境系统中存在大量不确定性，并认为地球系统问题永远不会有最终解决方案。因此，一旦采取行动，地球系统工程师将需要与系统进行持续对话，观察变化和系统如何演变。这种监测和管理生态系统的方式接受了大自然固有的不确定性，并接受永远不能找到解决问题的办法。

地球系统工程本质上是利用系统分析方法来研究环境问题。在分析复杂的环境系统时，有许多数据集、利益相关者和变量。因此，用系统分析方法处理此类问题是合适的。基本上，正确进行的系统研究可分为六个主要阶段。<ref name="Gibson, 1991" /> 六个阶段如下：
# 确定系统的目标
# 确定系统的目标
Part of the systems analysis process includes determining the goals of the system. The key components of goal development include the development of a Descriptive Scenario, a Normative Scenario and Transitive Scenario.<ref name = "Gibson, 1991"/> Essentially, the Descriptive Scenario "describe[s] the situation as it is [and] tell[s] how it got to be that way" (Gibson, 1991). Another important part of the Descriptive Scenario is how it "point[s] out the good features and the unacceptable elements of the status quo".<ref name = "Gibson, 1991"/> Next, the Normative Scenario shows the final outcome or the way the system should operate under ideal conditions once action has been taken.<ref name = "Gibson, 1991"/> For the earth systems approach, the "Normative Scenario" will involve the most complicated analysis. The Normative Scenario will deal with stakeholders, creating a common trading zone or location for the free exchange of ideas to come up with a solution of where a system may be restored to or just how exactly a system should be modified. Finally the Transitive scenario comes up with the actual process of changing a system from a Descriptive state to a Normative state. Often, there is not one final solution, as noted in [[adaptive management]]. Typically an iterative process ensues as variables and inputs change and the system coevolves with the analysis.

===Environmental science===
When examining complex [[ecosystem]]s there is an inherent need for the earth systems engineer to have a strong understanding of how natural processes function. A training in Environmental Science will be crucial to fully understand the possible unintended and undesired effects of a proposed earth systems design. Fundamental topics such as the [[carbon cycle]] or the [[water cycle]] are pivotal processes that need to be understood.

At the heart of ESEM is the social, ethical and moral responsibility of the earth systems engineer to stakeholders and to the natural system being engineered, to come up with an objective Transitive and Normative scenario. "ESEM is the cultural and ethical context itself".<ref name = "Allenby, 2005"/> The earth systems engineer will be expected to explore the ethical implications of proposed solutions.

===Industrial ecology===
===Industrial ecology===
Industrial ecology is the notion that major manufacturing and industrial processes need to shift from open loop systems to [[Circular economy|closed loop]] systems. This is essentially the [[recycling]] of waste to make new products. This reduces refuse and increases the effectiveness of resources. ESEM looks to minimize the impact of industrial processes on the environment, therefore the notion of recycling of industrial products is important to ESEM.

工业生态学的概念是，主要的制造业和工业过程需要从开环系统转向闭环系统。这实质上是废物的回收利用，以制造新产品。这减少了垃圾，提高了资源的有效性。ESEM希望将工业过程对环境的影响降至最低，因此工业产品回收的概念对ESEM很重要。

=== 背景 ===
=== 背景 ===
佛罗里达大沼泽地位于佛罗里达州南部。该生态系统本质上是一个亚热带淡水沼泽，由多种动植物组成。<ref name="Everglades, 2004" />特别值得一提的是锯草和山脊泥沼这使得大沼泽地独一无二。<ref name="Davis, 1997" /> 在过去的一个世纪里，周边人口数量与日俱增。目前，佛罗里达州东海岸全部开发，人口已增至600多万。多年来，人口增加导致水从其传统路径通过大沼泽地流入墨西哥湾和大西洋。这对佛罗里达大沼泽地造成了各种有害影响。
===Descriptive scenario===
===Descriptive scenario===
By 1993, the Everglades had been affected by numerous human developments. The water flow and quality had been affected by the construction of canals and levees, to the series of elevated highways running through the Everglades to the expansive Everglades Agricultural Area that had contaminated the Everglades with high amounts of nitrogen.<ref name = "Everglades, 2004"/> The result of this reduced flow of water was dramatic. There was a 90 - 95% reduction in wading bird populations, declining fish populations and salt water intrusion into the ecosystem.<ref name="Davis, 1997"/> If the Florida Everglades were to remain a US landmark, action needed to be taken.

=== '''当前场景描述''' ===
=== '''当前场景描述''' ===
1993年，大沼泽地受到了无数人类发展的影响。水流和水质受到了运河和堤坝建设、穿过大沼泽地的一系列高架公路以及大沼泽地农业区的影响，而大沼泽地农业区已被大量氮污染。<ref name="Everglades, 2004" /> 水流减少的结果是惊人的。涉水鸟类数量减少了90-95%，鱼类数量减少以及盐水入侵生态系统。<ref name="Davis, 1997" />如果佛罗里达大沼泽地要继续成为美国的地标，就必须采取行动。
===Normative scenario===
===Normative scenario===
It was in 1993 that the Army Corps of Engineers analyzed the system.<ref name = "Everglades, 2004"/> They determined that an ideal situation would be to "get the water right".<ref name = "Everglades, 2004"/> In doing so there would be a better flow through the Everglades and a reduced number of canals and levees sending water to tide.

1993年，美国陆军工程兵团对该系统进行了分析。<ref name="Everglades, 2004" />他们决定，理想的情况是“正确用水”。<ref name="Everglades, 2004" />这样一来，大沼泽地的水流会更好，运河和堤坝的数量也会减少，从而使水流退潮。
===Transitive scenario===
===Transitive scenario===
It was from the development of the Normative Scenario, that the Army Corps of Engineers developed CERP, the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan.<ref name = "Everglades, 2004"/> In the plan they created a time line of projects to be completed, the estimated cost and the ultimate results of improving the ecosystem by having native flora and fauna prosper.<ref name = "Everglades, 2004"/> They also outline the human benefits of the project. Not only will the solution be sustainable, as future generations will be able to enjoy the Everglades, but the correction of the water flow and through the creation of storage facilities will reduce the occurrence of droughts and water shortages in southern Florida.<ref name = "Everglades, 2004"/>
