Nutrient Cycling in Terrestrial Ecosystems presents a
comprehensive overview of nutrient cycling processes and their
importance for plant growth and ecosystem sustainability. The first
part of the book presents the fundamentals of nutrient cycling.
Topics included are cycling of carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus,
sulphur and micronutrients. Particular attention is paid to the
role of root exudates and rhizosphere microorganisms in
facilitating nutrient cycling. The second part discusses nutrient
cycling at an ecosystem scale, covering cropping systems, pastures,
natural grasslands, arid lands, tundras and forests. The final
chapter reviews current models of nutrient cycling.
By comprehensively covering nutrient cycling at a range of
scales and emphasising multidisciplinary approaches, this volume
will support scientists and practitioners alike, providing links
between those involved in improving sustainable economic output
from managed ecosystems and those interested in conservation of
natural ecosystems.
