Biosphere 2 aims to catalyze interdisciplinary thinking and understanding about the Earth, its living systems, and its future.

The B2 Institute tackles and defines scientific challenges by focusing on breaking down disciplinary divides and facilitating the translation of basic research to real-world applications.

B2 Earthscience conducts research in the earth system and environmental sciences that examines soil-water-atmosphere-plant interactions. Improving understanding of these interactions will be important in gaining insight into the impacts and causes of global environmental change and variation.
