Cycles of Soil
Carbon, Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Sulfur, Micronutrients
Second Edition
edited by F.J. Stevenson

The chemical composition of the soil and fertilizers, and the way in which plants and microorganisms interact with the soil and soil microorganisms can be prime determinants of crop production.

Indeed, the cycles of these chemical elements are basic components of understanding all ecosystems. Cycles of Soil provides an exhaustive overview of the inorganic chemical activity taking place in soil.

Features:

  • profound effects of living organisms on soil
  • biochemical cycle functionings in terrestial soils
  • C, N, P, S cycles as well as micronutrient behavior
  • and much more!

Contents:

  1. The Carbon Cycle
  2. Soil Carbon Budgets and Role of Organic Matter in Soil Fertility
  3. Soil Organic Matter Quality and Characterization
  4. Environmental Aspects of the Soil Carbon Cycle
  5. The Nitrogen Cycle in Soil: Global and Ecological Aspects
  6. The Internal Cycle of Nitrogen in Soil
  7. Dynamics of Soil N Transformations as Revealed by 15N Tracer Studies
  8. Impact of Nitrogen on Health and the Environment
  9. The Phosphorus Cycle
