Description:
The Biosphere is comprised of all living things. GLOBE’s Biosphere investigation areas are Biometry (Land Cover) and Phenology. All living things––including humans––depend on their habitat for survival. Land cover measurements describe the vegetation that provides shelter, food, and protection. Land cover also has a direct effect on the kinds of animals that will likely inhabit an area. Phenology is the study of living organisms’ response to seasonal changes in the environment in which they live.
