| Content: | Dear All Colleagues Mass redistribution and transport in the Earth system, including the atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, cryosphere and the interior of the solid Earth affect the Earth´s shape, gravity field and rotation (the three pillars of geodesy). Space geodetic techniques, including VLBI, SLR, DORIS, GNSS, InSAR, LiDAR, ICESat, satellite radar and laser altimetry, satellite gravimetry (particularly CHAMP/GRACE/GOCE) and GNSS Reflectometry & Radio Occultation, are capable of measuring and monitoring such small changes with high accuracy and spatial-temporal resolution. These provide a unique opportunity to investigate mass transport associated with geodynamics, natural hazards, and climate change, and to better understand these processes and their interaction within the Earth system. This special issue of *Journal of Geodynamics *on “Earth System Observing and Modelling from Space Geodesy†focuses on assessing current technological capabilities and presenting recent results of space geodetic observations and understanding the physical processes and coupling in the Earth system, and future impacts on climate. Topics include data retrieval of space geodetic techniques, reference frame, atmospheric-ionospheric sounding and disturbance, gravity field, crustal deformation and earthquake geodesy, GIA, Earth rotation, hydrological cycle, ocean circulation, sea level change, and ice sheet mass balance as well as their coupling in the Earth system. This special issue consists not only of papers given at the International Symposium on Space Geodesy and Earth System but also includes other contributions on this topic that were submitted in response to an open call for contributions. All related papers are welcome to submit to Special issue of Journal of Geodynamics on “Earth System Observing and Modelling from Space Geodesy†via http://ees.elsevier.com/geod. To ensure that all manuscripts are correctly identified for inclusion into the special issue, authors must select ”SI: Geodetic Earth System” when they reach the ”Article Type” step in the submission process. *Guest editors:* Prof. Shuanggen Jin, Shanghai Astronomical Observatory, CAS, Shanghai, China, Email: sgjin@shao.ac.cn A/Prof. Tonie van Dam, University of Luxembourg, Luxembourg, Email: tonie.vandam@uni.lu Dr. Shimon Wdowinski, University of Miami, Miami, USA, Email: shimonw@rsmas.miami.edu Dear All Colleagues  Mass redistribution and transport in the Earth system, including the atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, cryosphere and the interior of the solid Earth affect the Earth's shape, gravity field and rotation (the three pillars of geodesy).
