Soil Respiration and the Environment
ISBN: 9780120887828 / Angielski / Twarda / 316 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The global environment is constantly changing and our planet is getting warmer at an unprecedented rate. The study of the carbon cycle, and soil respiration, is a very active area of research internationally because of its relationship to climate change. It is crucial for our understanding of ecosystem functions from plot levels to global scales. Although a great deal of literature on soil respiration has been accumulated in the past several years, the material has not yet been synthesized into one place until now. This book synthesizes the already published research findings and presents the...

Nitrogen Fixation at the Millennium
ISBN: 9780444509659 / Angielski / Twarda / 470 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The turn of the millennium from the twentieth to the twenty-first century provides an occasion to review our understanding of a biological process, biological nitrogen fixation, that is of prime importance for the continued survival of mankind. This process has provided a basis for maintaining soil fertility since the beginning of organised agriculture, yet its very existence was confirmed only just over a century ago. In the intervening years, an enormous intellectual effort has dispersed much of the mystery surrounding biological nitrogen fixation. Biological fixation is widely exploited in...
