Résumé :
|
This graduate level text reference is designed to be a bridge between ecologists and soil scientists. There is increasing awareness that soil is the organizing center for all terrestrial ecosystems. This text examines why this is so, in terms of the physic, chemistry, and biologiy of soil ecosystems. Biodiversity and global change and the important role of soils play in global carbon balance are also discussed. Contents : Introduction : the fitness of the soil environment ; Primary production processes in soils ; Secondary production : activies of heterotrophic organisms microbes ; Secondary production activies of heterotrophic organisms the soil fauna ; Decomposition and nutrient cycling ; Detritivory and microbivory in soils ; Future developments in soil ecology.
