pressure dome

German translation: Druckkuppel

English to German translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Agriculture
English term or phrase: pressure dome
From a text under a photograph in a book:

"This rotating hydroponic farm was designed by an entrepreneur hoping to rehabilitate Japanese agriculture through an indoor growing system with minimal reliance on pesticides and chemicals. The seedlings, nourished by a liquid diet of phosphate and other minerals, begin at the center of a water tank and gradually move outward as the mechanism rotates. Sheltered beneath a **pressure dome,** crops can be harvested year-round."

What is this "pressure dome" and what is the German term for it?

Thank you for your help.

Thank you for the reference to the japanese website so I could see for myself what those domes look like. Yet I am not using your translation.

durch Überdruck geschützt unter einem Membrandach / Dome


Explanation:
Ich würde den ganzen Ausdruck übersetzen: sheltered beneath a pressure dome
Bei meinem Vorschlag habe ich mich an den Biogasanlagen orientiert, da es dort eine vergleichbare Konstruktion gibt.

Note to reference poster
Asker: The second reference fits exactly. It's only that the German "Druckkuppel" feels so strange - perhaps only to me - because I imediately hear something like "high pressure" which is certainly not what is meant.
