The
Knowledge
Network
for
Biocomplexity
is
a
national
network
intended
to
facilitate
ecological
and
environmental
research
on
biocomplexity.

discovery,
access,
interpretation,
integration,
and
analysis
of
complex
ecological
data
from
a
highly
distributed
set
of
field
stations,
laboratories,
research
sites,
and
individual
researchers.

Industrial
Transformation
(IT)
presents
an
innovative
way
of
organizing
research,
which
aims
at
understanding
the
societal
mechanisms
and
human
driving
forces
that
could
facilitate
sustainable
industry.
IT
seeks
to
integrate
and
stimulate
co-operation
among
scientists
by
establishing
both
a
research
framework
and
a
network,
which
can
be
useful
for

modeling.
In
this
curriculum,
students
explore
the
major
factors
leading
to
temperature
variation
around
the
globe,
and
then
use
what
they
learn
to
make
temperature
predictions
and
identify
the
habitable
areas
on
a
