Book Description
The papers presented at these Topical Meetings addressed research issues concerned with the growth of plants and the recycling of wastes within artificial ecosystems such as Controlled Ecological Life Support Systems (CELSS), the development of bioreactors for use in space and carbon cycling in natural ecosystems. It is anticipated that a better understanding of the dynamics and mechanisms of the natural ecosystems of the Earth, in which human activities play an increasingly important role, will provide significant information to support the development of artificial ecosystems for life support. In turn, it is expected that in developing ecosystems for the specific purpose of supporting humans in space, a better understanding of natural ecosystems will emerge.

Book Description
People on earth would be in trouble if their life-support systems failed. In this book, a founder of the field of ecology explains what those systems are, how they function, and what we need to do to keep them working. This second edition presents a holistic, or "big-picture", look at ecology.
