We are developing a next-generation model of the terrestrial biosphere and its interactions with the carbon cycle, water cycle and climate.

Our revolutionary approach will lead to ecosystem models that rest on firm theoretical and empirical foundations, and eventually, more reliable projections of future climates and a newfound ability to address issues in sustainability, including the potential to maintain the biosphere’s capacity to regulate the carbon cycle while benefiting human well-being and development.
