Abstract

See full text

An ecological system model for a self-sustaining and resilient human habitation on the Moon and Mars and for food security and climate change mitigation anywhere on Earth. It takes into account the ecological and biological theories and principles by which Earth ecosystems function and applies this knowledge to the establishment of a closed ecological system that mimics the self-sustaining and resilient capacity of Earth. Three zones are used for human habitation, agriculture, and ecological buffer. Expedited primary succession is used to initially establish the agricultural zone and ecological buffer zone with fully functioning biogeochemical cycles and ecological services. Competitive redundancy ensures the security of the food crops while maintaining the biodiversity of plant species. Ecological service reservoirs provide the additional buffering capacity that would normally be supplies by surrounding ecosystems on Earth.
