Biosphere
The biosphere is the global sum of all ecosystems. It can also be termed as the zone of life on Earth, a closed system (apart from solar and cosmic radiator and heat from the interior of the Earth), and largely self-regulating. By the most general biophysiological definition, the biosphere is the global ecological system integrating all living beings and their relationships, including their interaction with the elements of the lithosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere. The biosphere is postulated to have evolved, beginning with a process of biopoesis (life created naturally from non-living matter such as simple organic compounds) or biogenesis (life created from living matter), at least some 3.5 billion years ago. The earliest evidence for life on Earth includes biogenic graphite found in 3.7 billion-year-old metasedimentary rocks from Western Greenland and microbial mat fossils found in 3.48 billion-year-old sandstone from Western Australia. More recently, in 2015, "remains of biotic life" were found in 4.1 billion-year-old rocks in Western Australia. According to one of the researchers, "If life arose relatively quickly on Earth ... then it could be common in the universe."

Biosphere (musician)
Biosphere is the main recording name of Geir Jenssen (born 30, May 1962), a Norwegian musician who has released a notable catalogue of ambient electronic music. He is well known for his works on ambient techno and arctic themed pieces, his use of music loops, and peculiar samples from sci-fi sources. His 1997 album Substrata was voted by the users of the Hyperreal website in 2001 as the best all-time classic ambient album.
History
Prior to Biosphere (1962–1991)
Jenssen was born on May 30, 1962, in Tromsø, a city within the Arctic Circle in the northernmost portion of Norway. He was inspired by the music of artists such as New Order, Depeche Mode, Wire, and Brian Eno, which he described as "like discovering a new universe—a universe which I wanted to be a part of". In 1983, he bought his first synthesizer and composed his first piece of music, taking influence from his archaeological studies, later stating "Studying the Ice Age and Stone Age has definitely influenced my music." In 1984 Jenssen issued his first album, Likvider, released on cassette only and credited to E-man.

The Earth system is made up of four interconnected components, commonly referred to as "spheres" - the geosphere (solid earth), hydrosphere (water), atmosphere (air), and biosphere (life). Each of these spheres interacts with the others, shaping the environment we inhabit.
The biosphere is all about life. It encompasses all regions of the Earth where life exists - from the deepest parts of the ocean, to the highest mountains, from the chilliest arctic regions to the hottest deserts, and everything in between. The biosphere encompasses all forms of life on Earth. This includes not just animals and plants, but also fungi, bacteria, and various other microorganisms that might not be visible to the naked eye.
In the desert regions, we have organisms such as cacti and camels which have adapted to the extremely dry and hot conditions.
In the arctic regions, polar bears, penguins, and various species of seals thrive in the cold.
Forests, which can range from tropical rainforests near the equator to boreal forests closer to the poles, host a diverse array of life from towering trees and understory plants to myriad animals such as monkeys, birds, deer, wolves, and countless insects.
The biosphere also spans aquatic regions, both fresh and saltwater. Coral reefs, for instance, are teeming with life - from the corals themselves to the numerous species of fish, crustaceans, and other sea life they host.
Freshwater ecosystems, like lakes and rivers, are home to fish, amphibians, waterfowl, and many types of invertebrates.
The biosphere interacts with the other spheres in numerous ways. Plants grow in soil (part of the geosphere). They take up carbon dioxide (part of the atmosphere), and require water (part f the hydrosphere) to photosynthesize. Animals breathe in oxygen from the atmosphere and drink water from the hydrosphere. The geosphere and hydrosphere also provide habitats to a great diversity of organisms.
The essential interplay between the biosphere and the other spheres is key to sustaining life on Earth. The interdependence of all these spheres illustrates the remarkable balance and interconnectivity of our planet.

The biosphere, also known as the ecosphere, is the worldwide sum of all ecosystems. It can also be termed the zone of life on Earth, a closed system, and largely self-regulating.
By the most general biophysiological definition, the biosphere is the global ecological system integrating all living beings and their relationships, including their interaction with the elements of the lithosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere. The biosphere is postulated to have evolved, beginning with a process of biopoiesis (life created naturally from non-living matter, such as simple organic compounds) or biogenesis (life created from living matter), at least some 3.5 billion years ago.
In a general sense, biospheres are any closed, self-regulating systems containing ecosystems. This includes artificial biospheres such as Biosphere 2 and BIOS-3, and potentially ones on other planets or moons.
Geochemists define the biosphere as being the total sum of living organisms. In this sense, the biosphere is but one of four separate components of the geochemical model, the other three being geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere. When these four component spheres are combined into one system, it is known as the Ecosphere. This term was coined during the 1960s and encompasses both biological and physical components of the planet.
Every part of the planet, from the polar ice caps to the equator, features life of some kind. Recent advances in microbiology have demonstrated that microbes live deep beneath the Earth's terrestrial surface, and that the total mass of microbial life in so-called "uninhabitable zones" may, in biomass, exceed all animal and plant life on the surface. The actual thickness of the biosphere on earth is difficult to measure. Birds typically fly at altitudes as high as 1,800 m (5,900 ft; 1.1 mi) and fish live as much as 8,372 m (27,467 ft; 5.202 mi) underwater in the Puerto Rico Trench.
There are more extreme examples for life on the planet: Rüppell's vulture has been found at altitudes of 11,300 m (37,100 ft; 7.0 mi); bar-headed geese migrate at altitudes of at least 8,300 m (27,200 ft; 5.2 mi); yaks live at elevations as high as 5,400 m (17,700 ft; 3.4 mi) above sea level; mountain goats live up to 3,050 m (10,010 ft; 1.90 mi). Herbivorous animals at these elevations depend on lichens, grasses, and herbs.
Life forms live in every part of the Earth's biosphere, including soil, hot springs, inside rocks at least 19 km (12 mi) deep underground, the deepest parts of the ocean, and at least 64 km (40 mi) high in the atmosphere. Microorganisms, under certain test conditions, have been observed to survive the vacuum of outer space. The total amount of soil and subsurface bacterial carbon is estimated as 5 × 1017 g, or the "weight of the United Kingdom". The mass of prokaryote microorganisms—which includes bacteria and archaea, but not the nucleated eukaryote microorganisms—may be as much as 0.8 trillion tons of carbon (of the total biosphere mass, estimated at between 1 and 4 trillion tons). Barophilic marine microbes have been found at more than a depth of 10,000 m (33,000 ft; 6.2 mi) in the Mariana Trench, the deepest spot in the Earth's oceans. In fact, single-celled life forms have been found in the deepest part of the Mariana Trench, by the Challenger Deep, at depths of 11,034 m (36,201 ft; 6.856 mi). Other researchers reported related studies that microorganisms thrive inside rocks up to 580 m (1,900 ft; 0.36 mi) below the sea floor under 2,590 m (8,500 ft; 1.61 mi) of ocean off the coast of the northwestern United States, as well as 2,400 m (7,900 ft; 1.5 mi) beneath the seabed off Japan. Culturable thermophilic microbes have been extracted from cores drilled more than 5,000 m (16,000 ft; 3.1 mi) into the Earth's crust in Sweden,[29] from rocks between 65–75 °C (149–167 °F). Temperature increases with increasing depth into the Earth's crust. The rate at which the temperature increases depends on many factors, including type of crust (continental vs. oceanic), rock type, geographic location, etc. The greatest known temperature at which microbial life can exist is 122 °C (252 °F) (Methanopyrus kandleri Strain 116), and it is likely that the limit of life in the "deep biosphere" is defined by temperature rather than absolute depth.[citation needed] On 20 August 2014, scientists confirmed the existence of microorganisms living 800 m (2,600 ft; 0.50 mi) below the ice of Antarctica. According to one researcher, "You can find microbes everywhere - they're extremely adaptable to conditions, and survive wherever they are."
Our biosphere is divided into a number of biomes, inhabited by fairly similar flora and fauna. On land, biomes are separated primarily by latitude. Terrestrial biomes lying within the Arctic and Antarctic Circles are relatively barren of plant and animal life, while most of the more populous biomes lie near the equator.

The Earth system is made up of four interconnected components, commonly referred to as "spheres" - the geosphere (solid earth), hydrosphere (water), atmosphere (air), and biosphere (life). Each of these spheres interacts with the others, shaping the environment we inhabit.
The biosphere is all about life. It encompasses all regions of the Earth where life exists - from the deepest parts of the ocean, to the highest mountains, from the chilliest arctic regions to the hottest deserts, and everything in between. The biosphere encompasses all forms of life on Earth. This includes not just animals and plants, but also fungi, bacteria, and various other microorganisms that might not be visible to the naked eye.
In the desert regions, we have organisms such as cacti and camels which have adapted to the extremely dry and hot conditions.

Forests, which can range from tropical rainforests near the equator to boreal forests closer to the poles, host a diverse array of life from towering trees and understory plants to myriad animals such as monkeys, birds, deer, wolves, and countless insects.

They take up carbon dioxide (part of the atmosphere), and require water (part f the hydrosphere) to photosynthesize. Animals breathe in oxygen from the atmosphere and drink water from the hydrosphere. The geosphere and hydrosphere also provide habitats to a great diversity of organisms.
The essential interplay between the biosphere and the other spheres is key to sustaining life on Earth. The interdependence of all these spheres illustrates the remarkable balance and interconnectivity of our planet.
Biosphere
The biosphere is the global sum of all ecosystems. It can also be termed as the zone of life on Earth, a closed system (apart from solar and cosmic radiator and heat from the interior of the Earth), and largely self-regulating. By the most general biophysiological definition, the biosphere is the global ecological system integrating all living beings and their relationships, including their interaction with the elements of the lithosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere. The biosphere is postulated to have evolved, beginning with a process of biopoesis (life created naturally from non-living matter such as simple organic compounds) or biogenesis (life created from living matter), at least some 3.5 billion years ago. The earliest evidence for life on Earth includes biogenic graphite found in 3.7 billion-year-old metasedimentary rocks from Western Greenland and microbial mat fossils found in 3.48 billion-year-old sandstone from Western Australia. More recently, in 2015, "remains of biotic life" were found in 4.1 billion-year-old rocks in Western Australia. According to one of the researchers, "If life arose relatively quickly on Earth ... then it could be common in the universe."
