Biosphere 2 biopsy

Article Abstract:

A scientific advisory committee review of the Biosphere II Project revealed the experiment's lack of an existing science plan. However, the committee declared that the actualization of the project was in itself an achievement. In addition, the application of the committee's recommendations could enhance the importance of the project in biogeochemical and ecological research.
