Description for The Biogeochemistry of Submerged Soils
Hardcover. Submerged soils and the wetlands they support are of huge practical importance: in global element cycles, as centres of biodiversity, in global food production. This book shows how they are also uniquely interesting scientifically because of their peculiar biogeochemistry and the adaptations of plants and microbes to it. Num Pages: 304 pages, Illustrations, 1 map. BIC Classification: PN; RBGB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 160 x 23. Weight in Grams: 616.
Submerged soils and the wetlands they support are of huge practical importance: in global element cycles, as centres of biodiversity, in global food production. They are also uniquely interesting scientifically because of their peculiar biogeochemistry and the adaptations of plants and microbes to it.
This book describes the physical, chemical and biological processes operating in submerged soils and governing their properties. It describes the transport processes controlling the fluxes of gases and solutes through the soil; the interchange of solutes between solid, liquid and gas phases; reduction and oxidation processes; biological processes in the soil and overlying water; and ...

Reviews for The Biogeochemistry of Submerged Soils
“Overall, this volume will make a nice reference addition to those scientists interested in biogeochemical processes in anaerobic environments, especially rice lands.” (Annals of Botany, 1 October 2005) “…clearly and logically set out…simple and to the point…most impressive.” (European Journal of Soil Science, No.56, April 2005)
