Nature’s Services #2650004 Ecosystem Services are the benefits, products, and processes that nature provides to support human livelihoods. They range from the familiar – food production, timber, clean water, and recreational values -- to the less familiar – soil-creation, nutrient cycles, and even global climate regulation. The original mission of Biosphere 2 was to create a self-contained prototype of a futuristic space exploration instrument, complete with all the life-support mechanisms (Ecosystem Services) necessary to allow humans to live indefinitely extraterrestrially. To accomplish its goal, Biosphere 2 required a tremendously complex, technologically advanced, and expensive set of engineering equipment to replace the Ecosystem Services of Biosphere 1, i.e., the Earth.

This day and a half course will use Biosphere 2 as a hands-on laboratory to explore the Ecosystem Services concept. We will discuss several local examples and case studies, and cover some of the ways Ecosystem Services discussions can influence environmental policy. Much of the course will take place inside Biosphere 2. We will use a combination of short lecture sessions, discussion, group exercises, walking “field trips,” and data collection/analysis to engage participants. No prior knowledge or training required. Added feature is an overnight stay at the iconic Biosphere 2 facility, now a UA College of Science research and teaching venue. Fee $673 Sec. 1: Day, Dates, times. Instructor Location: Biosphere 2, 32540 S Biosphere Rd, Oracle, AZ
