The International Council for Science (ICSU) includes four unions, which focus on the geosciences. These are the International Unions: of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG); for the Geological Sciences (IUGS); for Quaternary Research (INQUA); and for Soil Science (IUSS). These unions play an important role in fostering wide international exchange and dissemination of information, knowledge, and ideas. They promote strong international cooperation in the various fields of geosciences covered by these unions and provide, through the participation of U.S. scientists, an important vehicle for broad dissemination of research results. They also provide a forum in which U.S. geoscientists can exercise effective international leadership in areas of the geosciences that are especially important from the perspective of U.S. science. U.S. participation in and support for these unions is provided through U.S. National Committees (USNC's) for each union. These USNC's are comprised of distinguished geoscientists who are well aware of the state of the science, both nationally and internationally. The UNSC's plan and implement U.S. participation in the unions and keep the U.S. geosciences community informed of union activities.

国际科学理事会 (ICSU) 包括四个专注于地球科学的联盟。 这些是国际大地测量学和地球物理学联合会 (IUGG)；地质科学（IUGS）；第四纪研究（INQUA）；以及土壤科学（IUSS）。 这些联盟在促进信息、知识和思想的广泛国际交流和传播方面发挥着重要作用。 它们促进了这些联盟所涵盖的地球科学各个领域的强有力的国际合作，并通过美国科学家的参与，为广泛传播研究成果提供了重要工具。 它们还提供了一个论坛，让美国地球科学家可以在从美国科学角度来看特别重要的地球科学领域发挥有效的国际领导作用。 美国通过每个工会的美国国家委员会 (USNC) 参与并支持这些工会。 这些 USNC 由杰出的地球科学家组成，他们非常了解国内和国际的科学状况。 联合国安理会计划并实施美国对联盟的参与，并向美国地球科学界通报联盟活动。
