Soil science has undergone a renaissance in recent years with an increasing awareness of the importance of soil organisms and below-ground biotic interactions as drivers of community and ecosystem properties. This book is unique amongst texts of its type in its explicit consideration of above-ground/below-ground feedback, herbivores, and the functional significance and regulation of soil biodiversity.

More DescriptionSoil science has undergone a renaissance in recent years with an increasing awareness of the importance of soil organisms and below-ground biotic interactions as drivers of community and ecosystem properties. This book is unique amongst texts of its type in its explicit consideration of above-ground/below-ground feedback, herbivores, and the functional significance and regulation of soil biodiversity. This is a truly contemporary text, suitable for undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in soil ecology and ecosystem science, as well as professional researchers in the fields of ecology and environmental biology requiring a modern overview of the topic.
