{"product_id":"9780751403435","title":"Environmental Soil Biology","description":"\u003ch1\u003eEnvironmental Soil Biology\u003c\/h1\u003e \u003ch2\u003eWood, M.\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eEnvironmental considerations are playing an increasingly  important role in determining management strategies for soil and land.  Many  important environmental issues involve aspects of the biology of  soil, and these issues cannot be considered satisfactorily in  isolation from a general understanding of soil biology as a whole.  This is the second edition of a book first published in 1989 and now  thoroughly rewritten to focus on soil ecology and environmental  issues. The first part of the book provides an introduction to soils,  its inhabitants, and their activities. The second part covers the  influence of man on the natural cycles of soil. Topics such as acid  rain and nitrogen fertilizers are considered alongside pesticides and  genetically modified organisms. A new final chapter has been added  which considers how, as we move towards the next millennium, we can  apply the concept of sustainability to issues such as global climate  change and farming systems. The book is directed at advanced  undergraduate and immediate postgraduate students in environmental  science and soil ecology, with students of physical geography and  earth sciences as an important secondary market.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1995-08-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e ISBN-10: 9780751403435\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780751403435\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-0625-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 150\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44341242986636,"sku":"9780751403435","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780751403435.jpg?v=1755041163","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780751403435","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
