This project has established a course for biology students using modern instrumentation to characterize physical environments and responses of plants to them. Students master the instruments in supervised laboratory exercises, then use each instrument to characterize the "natural" environment or plant responses in tropical, desert and mesic areas of a large multi-room greenhouse. Factors that are measured include temperature, air velocity, humidity, soil moisture status, and radiation quantity. This program is helping students become more aware of the physical environment and its biological consequences. The project is also allowing students to acquire proficiency in the choice and operation of modern instruments and research in this field.

本项目为生物学学生开设了一门课程，使用现代仪器来描述自然环境和植物对自然环境的反应。学生在有监督的实验室练习中掌握仪器，然后使用每种仪器来描述热带、沙漠和mesic地区大型多室温室的“自然”环境或植物反应。测量的因素包括温度、风速、湿度、土壤水分状况和辐射量。这个项目正在帮助学生们更加了解自然环境及其生物后果。该项目还使学生能够熟练掌握现代仪器的选择和操作以及该领域的研究。
