Abstract

This paper stresses the idea that the terrestrial environment and the diverse forms of life that inhabit it constitute an integrated system of interacting components. No single part, oceans, atmosphere, or biota, can be understood adequately enough to anticipate its changes by treating it in isolation. No geographic segment can be analyzed as an isolated entity. In addition it discusses the formation of the International Geosphere-Biosphere Program (IGBP) which was formed to illuminate this intimate linkage between the physical sciences and the life sciences. 29 references, 5 figures.

前往地球的任务

本文强调陆地环境和居住在其中的各种生命形式构成了一个相互作用的组成部分的综合系统。没有任何一个单独的部分，无论是海洋、大气还是生物群，能够被充分地理解，从而通过孤立地研究来预测其变化。没有一个地理片段可以作为一个孤立的实体来分析。此外，它还讨论了国际地圈-生物圈计划(IGBP)的形成，该计划的形成是为了阐明物理科学与生命科学之间的这种密切联系。29篇参考文献，5张图。
