The Base Screen button takes you into the guts of the management, replacing the globe with a plan of the base you pick from your list, offering analysis of base facilities, allowing you to add or remove them. You can check on your supplies as well and all other options are avaliable.

The Research Button replaces the globe with a listing of current available research and gives you the opportunity to assign numerous scientists to start work on which ever research option you choose. Multiple researches can be started provided you think you have enough scientists to cover the work load.

The Barracks button brings up a list of your current soldiers. When you select one, it fires up a screen that profiles them, including a ragdoll which shows what armour and weaponry they are equipped with. At the bottom is an iconic horizontal list of base items that you can equip on the soldier until all slots are used up.
The stats of the soldier are also available for viewing, and you can check how much they have improved as well as check for any medals that were offered for courage etc.

The Intercept button brings up a listing of bases with whichever aircraft they have. Once an aircraft is selected, you then select the hosile craft and the pursuit will begin across the globe.
