The Terrestrial Biogeosciences Program at Boston University is a collection of faculty and students whose research interests converge at the boundaries of traditional disciplines. The program emphasizes interdisciplinary research topics related to the biogeochemistry and biogeophysics of terrestrial ecosystems, with participants drawn from the departments of Biology, Earth Sciences and Geography & Environment. Research and curricular themes include the role of energy, mass and nutrient cycles in biosphere-atmosphere interactions, coastal processes, ecohydrology, climate change, and regional-to-global environmental change impact and adaptation science. The program is focussed on graduate student training, and is specifically designed for students wishing to pursue interdisciplinary research in topics spanning more than one discipline.
