Life in One Cubic Foot - exploring biodiversity with biocubes
Description:
At the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, Sant Ocean Hall Focus Gallery beginning March 4, 2016. What can we discover in just a cubic foot of Earth? As it turns out, a whole lot! Biocubes—the life in a cubic foot of soil or water over one day—capture enough variation to explore the complexity of entire ecosystems. Through this interactive exhibition, enter the small worlds of biocuces with Smithsonian researchers and other scientists as they investigate a range of marine biocubes to uncover amazingly complex relationships and important lessons for the future of our planet.
