Evaluation, Prediction and Control on the Earth's Health

Article Preview

Abstract:

To study the current state of the Earths health, we divide the Earth into dozens of regions and construct a complex network. Based on the network, we analyze the Earths present health and predict its developing trend. Moreover, the reasonable health level of the Earth can be reached via pinning control. Taking the population for example, we analyze the trend of population in the dynamic network both with control and without control. The results indicate that human behaviors and government policies have great impact on population growth.
