He has a track record experience in the design and the mathematical modelling of MELiSSA (Micro-Ecological Life Support System Alternative) ecosystem, which is the biological life support system developed by European Spatial Agency (ESA) for long duration spatial missions. The functions of life support systems for applications in space are discussed in detail in Peter Eckart's Spaceflight Life Support and Biospherics (Eckart, ) and in Paul Wieland's Designing for Human Presence in Space: An Introduction to Environmental Control and Life Support Systems (NASA, ).
In the bioecological systems approach of Bronfenbrenner, the body is part of the microsystem. Its effects on the other parts of the microsystem are probably obvious to most of us. The body is the life support system, the mobility system, and that with which we perceive and interact with the environment.

The organisms being exterminated are integral working parts of our planet's life support system, and their loss is permanent.
Drawing on examples from various socio-ecological systems, the book offers new perspectives on the urgent issue of biological extinction, proposing novel solutions to the problems that we face.

MP2: Biological Life Support Systems starting from a low of 7 CFU at 1 day, the numbers rose to 10 CFU atday 3 and dropped to 1 CFU at day 4. They then rose precipitously to over CFU on day 5 and were down to 2 CFU by day 7.
The number of CFU fluctuated between 4 and 2 until day 11 when they rose to CFU, dropping to 1 CFU on day The ABS (Autonomous Biological System): Spaceflight Results from a Bioregenerative Closed Life Support System Materially-closed aquatic life support systems containing vascular plants, invertebrate animals, algae and microbes were tested in three space flight experiments with ground by: 8.
UNESCO-Encyclopedia Life Support Systems (UNESCO-EOLSS) - One of the largest e-Books repositories on the Web, dedicated to the health, maintenance and future of the web of life on planet Earth, focusing on the complex connections among all the myriad aspects from natural and social sciences through water, energy, land, food, agriculture, environment, biodiversity, health, education.
1 Review. Man-Made Closed Ecological Systems explores the interactions between humans, microorganisms, and plants in a closed habitat, and the life support systems necessary to maintain habitability over long periods of time. Problems and approaches involved in creating closed man-made ecological systems (CMESs) from a theoretical and experimental viewpoint.4/5(1).

Earth’s natural life support system provides the air we breathe, the water we drink and other conditions that support life. For people to live in space, however, these functions must be done by artificial means. The life support systems on the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo spacecraft in the s were designed to be used once and discarded.
Enclosed ecosystem and life-support systems in sci-fi Closed Ecological System (CES) is a broad term that encompass any self-sustaining and closed system in which matter does not leave or enter. These artificial habitats can be built in space, underground, or underwater, but no matter where they are, chances are they are closed for a reason.
Controlled (or closed) ecological life-support systems (acronym CELSS) are a self-supporting life support system for space stations and colonies typically through controlled closed ecological systems, such as the BioHome, BIOS-3, Biosphere 2, Mars Desert Research Station, and Yuegong Characterizing Biological Closed-Loop Life Support Systems for Thermal Control and Revitalization of Spacecraft Cabin Environments.
In his works on complex biological systems, he points out functional aspects like variability, information, and optimality.

Keywords:Biological life-support system reliability, integral reliability criterion. Abstract:The great variety of possible configurations of Biological Life Support Systems (BLSS) and regimes for their operation necessitates a “top-down” approach to BLSS development and design. This top-down approach cannot be effectively performed without Cited by: 4.
I have a number of suggestions in addition to Uri Alon's book, which I also recommend highly. Uri's book covers a rather wide patchwork of biological systems. If you want to get a more comprehensive coverage of biological processes, I'd look elsew. This chapter provides an overview of possible regenerative functions and system concepts, life support systems employed in the first 50 years of human spaceflight, and options for future biological life support systems for long-term space : Åke Ingemar Skoog, Carol Norberg.
The MELISSA (Micro Ecological LIfe Support System Alternative) project of the European Space Agency (ESA) is a tool for the development of a simplified biological life support system.
