In terrestrial ecosystems, soil microorganisms and soil animals are essential for litter degradation, soil formation and the availability of nutrients and trace elements.
Experts in herbicide research and development - chemists and plant physiologists -, have written 15 chapters that review all aspects pertinent to peroxidizing herbicides, compounds of topical interest since extremely low use rates ensure high environmental safety.
From a new perspective, namely focusing on the interaction of selenium and mercury, this thesis provides new insights into traditional research on biogeochemical cycles of mercury in soil-plant interaction and associated human exposure and risks.
The Holocene is unique when compared to earlier geological time in that humans begin to alter and manipulate the natural environment to their own needs.
RADIOACTIVITY - RADIONUCLIDES - RADIATION is suitable for a general audience interested in topical environmental and human health radiological issues such as radiation exposure in aircraft, food sterilisation, nuclear medicine, radon gas, radiation dispersion devices ("e;dirty bombs"e;).
Since climate and land use strongly affect the runoff pattern and intensity of solute export, it is likely that some observations and conclusions formulated on the basis of investigations carried out in forested catchment may not be fully adequate to describe controls on solute export from agricultural watersheds.
This series of books are the output of the research project called "e;Sustainable Development in Asia (SDA)"e;, which was initiated by the Association of Academies of Sciences in Asia (AASA).
In this comprehensive and stimulating text and reference, the authors have succeeded in combining experimental data with current hypotheses and theories to explain the complex physiological functions of plants.
We shall limit our observations to the conditions in natural ecosystems, since it would be beyond the scope of this book to embark upon a consideration of secondary, man-made ecosystems.
Mapping Geomorphological Environments is a highly descriptive textbook providing an excellent introduction to the latest methodologies for mapping geomorphological formations in a variety of different environments.
Despite having been published about two years ago for the first time, the continuous demand for this book encouraged me to prepare this revised and enlarged edition.
This volume contains a selection of scientific papers which were presented at an international workshop on the impacts of climatic variability held in Wengen, Switzerland, September 1997.
The presence of deliberately added or adventitious organic and inorganic compounds in soils can cause contamination of the crops which are grown on the land or animals feeding on the land, and, consequently can cause adverse toxic effects on man, animals, birds and insect life.
Nanotechnology can serve as an innovative and effective tool for addressing the rising pressure on the food sector for meeting the human need of food security.
Die Landwirtschaft ist mehr als ein Wirtschaftszweig – sie bildet das Rückgrat der sozialen Marktwirtschaft, sichert Ernährung, stärkt regionale Wertschöpfung und ermöglicht nachhaltige Ressourcennutzung.
