ESE2012
Newcastle University hosted a technical symposium on Earth Systems Engineering on 3rd-5th July 2012. The focus of the symposium was on systems engineering for sustainable adaptation to global change and brought together a wide range of individuals who are applying Earth Systems Engineering (ESE) principles, to share their experiences.
We have a number of printed copies of the proceedings available. Please email richard.dawson@newcastle.ac.uk if you would like a copy. In the meantime please feel free to browse the presentations below.
