The moment you step out the front door you are walking into a biome? Your own backyard is part of an ecosystem? Wildlife and the environment work together to make the world a harmonious place. The climate, animals, and vegetation vary in many different parts of the world which make that area a specific biome with its very own characteristics.
When the seasons change, the weather changes and the environment changes, too. When the weather gets cooler, leaves fall off the trees, animals move or leave the area, and the grass dies and changes colors. One little change in the ecosystem can effect the whole biome? That is what an ecosystem is and how it works! By viewing this program, students will learn about several different major biomes of the world and how they interact with each other.
After viewing the ECOSYSTEMS AND BIOMES program and engaging in the activities provided, students will be able to:
Define ecosystems and biomes
Appropriately use introduced vocabulary in writing and discussion
Identify the seven major biomes
List characteristics of different biomes
Identify the geographic location of the major world biomes
Become more aware of the role of the environment and their job in the ecosystem

Descend into the only habitat not directly driven by sunlight to discover some of the most peculiar creatures on Earth. Cut off from the rest of the world, animals living in caves have become specialists adapted to living with sparse food, complete darkness, and acidic conditions. Such limited resources have forced cave dwellers into important and distinctive niches in their ecosystems. Water also plays a large role in the environment by offering a home to many species as well as forming caverns and such prominent cave features as stalactites and stalagmites. Traveling with experienced divers, the presentation tracks dangerous expeditions through largely unexplored subterranean regions of Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula and New Mexico to reveal unique underwater passages and crystal-lined caverns.

Follow rivers as they course from mountain to the sea, nourishing unique and dramatic wildlife and shaping the land. Recognizing that all life on land depends on fresh water, the presentation emphasizes the importance of rain in the water cycle and how animals from grizzly bears in British Columbia to cichlids in Africa's river valley use fresh water to protect, nurture, and teach their young. A look at South America's Pantanal wetlands and such key animals in the food chain as the red-bellied piranha reveals predator-prey relationships essential to completing the circle of life. Focusing on many of the world's most spectacular lakes, waterfalls, streams, and wetlands, the program uncovers exceptional animal species and adaptations including the crab-eating macaque's amphibious lifestyle, developed while living in the Sunderbans, the world?s largest delta in West Bengal, India.

Trek to the Earth's largest land habitats, where vast open spaces play host to the biggest groups of animals in the world. Following the immense migrations of caribou across the Arctic tundra and wildebeest through the African savannah, the program details life on Earth's varied plains: dodging predators, mating and raising young, and, in many grassland habitats, the constant search for water. A pride of hungry lions hunting elephants and a stealthy Arctic fox chasing snow geese reveal some of the boldest hunts on the planet, and battles between Mongolian wild donkeys for mates illustrate the harsh competition for resources, even in temperate climates.

Follow the sun as it touches the lives of creatures across the planet, bringing a fresh understanding of how the world is interconnected. From the North Pole to the South Pole, the program illuminates the importance of the sun's energy to life on Earth and examines how the seasons produce some of the world's greatest spectacles. Such animals as polar bears, impalas, fur seals, and emperor penguins must battle the varying temperatures and changing weather conditions of their ecosystems to survive often resorting to hibernation and migration. For other species, like the critically endangered Amur leopard, the struggle proves even more desperate and complex.

Investigate temperate forests and find some of the most elusive creatures and well-adapted plant life on Earth. The program accentuates the distinctive characteristics of coniferous and deciduous trees, including leaf types and reproduction, during each of the four seasons as well as how insects and animals rely on a variety of trees for food, shelter, and clean air. Each highlighted animal exhibits unique adaptations, like the moose's ability to eat conifer needles and the miniature stature of the species living in Chile's Valdivian forests where food is scarce to survive the harsh seasonal changes of the forests. Home to such endangered animals as the Amur leopard and Eurasian black vulture, the forest habitat plays an important role in Earth's ecosystem.

Examine the planet's wilderness areas and study humankind's impact on these nearly pristine ecosystems. From the Colorado River to Biaowiea, one of Europe's last primeval forests, the program observes how logging, pollution, and overpopulation disrupt many habitats and ultimately harm human societies. An overview of the climate change debate considers the planet's future in the face of rising global temperatures, and a summary of sustainable development programs in Costa Rica suggests a plausible solution to deforestation problems. Despite the harsh treatment nature often receives, conservationists and religious leaders stress the connection between spirituality and the environment, reminding everyone of the reverence and awe that our planet inspires.

The statistics are staggering. More than half of all spacecrafts sent to Mars have burned up, failed, or smashed to bits. But for NASA, the passion for Mars cannot be snuffed out and they are dreaming and planning for their next high stakes mission. The Mars: Phoenix Lander is rising from the ashes of disaster to search for signs of life in a region no spacecraft has ever been. This time around, the team will follow the water and will focus on finding life on Mars' Polar Regions.
Watch scientists and Daily Planet count down to the successful launch of the Mars Phoenix. With resources running low and pressure running high, they must race against the clock to carry out this formidable mission.
If they succeed, it will be the greatest discovery of our time. If it goes wrong, Mars will destroy yet another dream.
