Abstract

This study aims to provide information about the characteristics of eco dome as equipment for greenhouse effect experiments. This research uses experimental method. This research was held in 2019 at FMIPA Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia. Experiment used eco dome include: the effect of presence of plants inside of eco dome towards changing temperature and the effect of administration of CO2 in eco dome that presence of plants towards changing temperature. Data collection was done by measuring the temperature and intensity of light. Data analysis uses statistical tests. The result of this experiment was temperature in eco dome which has no plants inside is higher rather than temperature in eco dome which present plants inside. Another result is the added of CO2 in eco dome which contain plant has higher temperature rather than eco dome which has no CO2 added. Experiments shows the eco dome has characteristics in showing significant results and can be developed various potency.
