What is biosphere 1, and I want more than just the earth. quote unquote. that was my teachers words for a question can any of you help please?
Shouldn't the Eden Project have a mention in here?
Quote: "Regarding energy, it is an open system, with photosynthesis capturing solar energy at a rate of around 130 terawatts per year." The expression of energy rate as "terawatts per year" is wrong, as energy has the dimension of effect times time, so the unit is Watt times Second, stated as Joule. "energy rate" (that is, energy per time unit) has the unit Watt. The statement uses faulty units, the correct units cannot be deduced from the sentence.
