| Résumé : |
During most of Earth's existence, bacteria were almost exclusively responsible for the biogeochemical cycling of elements. In the extant biosphere, biological transformations of matter are still dominated by bacterial activity and many important biogeochemical processes (including methane production and consumption, and nitrogen fixation) are exclusively carried out by bacteria.
' bacterial biogeochemistry' is the expanded and revised second edition of ' Bacteria and mineral cycling'. It is the new definitive treatment of this subject, written by world renowned experts; the new edition provides a detailed treatment of· Microbial processes in different types of habitat·
" element cycling on a global scale;
" bacterial metabolism in the environment o Microbial symbiosis;
" decomposition of soil;
" food chains;
" nitrogen fixation;
" assimilation and reduction of carbon, nitrogen and sculpture;
" bio-energetic processes;
" characteristics of microbial communities;
" spatial heterogeneity·transport mechanisms;
" microbial bio-films;
" extreme environments;
" evolution of biogeochemical cycles;
" interactions between microbial processes;
" atmospheric composition of the Earth's greenhouse properties.
This book is the essential reference for all those studying or actively involved in the fields of microbiology, ecology, limnology, soil science, geochemistry, plant nutrition, marine microbiology, microbial metabolism, bioremediation, environmental restoration communities and for those pursuing global change research. |
