-Creating an environment for life-
An ecosystem is the natural system created
by a community of living beings and its interaction
with its external environment, the atmosphere,
the hydrosphere, and the lithosphere. As
it matures, the production and decomposition
of its organisms evolves
towards equilibrium, and the circulation
of substances stabilizes.
Environmental preservation is acknowledged
today as a worldwide common purpose: the
delicate balance of many ecosystems is threatened
by the activities of human life. Yet, much
remains to be both elucidated and accomplished
in order to help maintain and restore their
stability.
At NIT, we have pursued basic research
on regional ecosystems supported by the most
recent information available regarding the
natural world. Our future purpose is to deepen
our comprehension of natural systems by means
of interdisciplinary research involving physics,
biology, and chemistry.
