Creating a presentation about YOUR Byome...

Biosphere2 was a real Biosphere created in Arizona in 1991. It has sample of the biomes of earth and was lived in for two years by scientists. It is still used today for research purposes and is now a college campus. You can see a panoramic view of all of the biomes and ask questions of the scientists involved in the project.
