It is impossible to understand the working of the earth system without a clear understanding of the role of water as part of both the physical geosystem and of the biosphere. It has become increasingly clear that such scientific knowledge must be supplemented by a clear understanding of the interactive relationship between water resources and social systems. To tackle both of these tasks requires new skills and a new receptiveness if the interdisciplinary effort involved is to prove fruitful.
