Earth comprises systems of enormous complexity that sustain all life and control the distribution of mineral, energy and water resources. Thus understanding these dynamic systems provides the key to sustainable resource usage. The aim of The Earth System Dynamics Network is to facilitate scientific interactions through establishment of an earth and environmental sciences grid that links national and regional data assets with high performance computing through open sourced middleware. The result will be an unparalleled predictive capacity for complex Earth systems. The outcome will be confidence in the knowledge that underpins our decisions as stakeholders to keep Australia sustainable.

地球由极其复杂的系统组成，这些系统维持着所有生命，并控制着矿物、能源和水资源的分配。因此，了解这些动态系统是实现资源可持续利用的关键。地球系统动力学网络的目的是通过建立地球和环境科学网格促进科学互动，该网格通过开源中间件将国家和区域数据资产与高性能计算联系起来。其结果将是对复杂的地球系统具有无与伦比的预测能力。结果将是对知识的信心，这些知识支撑着我们作为利益相关者保持澳大利亚可持续发展的决定。
