Issued without a dust jacket. -- Based on the "International Symposium of Molecular Environmental Soil Science at the Interfaces in the Earth's Critical Zone," this book focuses on the Critical Zone supporting life at the Earth's surface with emphasis on the new and emerging subject area of molecular environmental soil science. Advances in research methodology, the use of synchrotron radiation in particular, are extensively reviewed. Roles of microbes, biomolecules, and environmental nanoparticles in mineral transformations, metal cycling, degradation of natural and anthropogenic organic compounds are also extensively reviewed. It is unique in terms of facilitating the integration of contributions from traditionally separate disciplines and adding a molecular and nanoparticle (therefore chemical) dimension to a field of endeavour that has traditionally been viewed on a different scale (dimension). It will also contribute to identifying knowledge gaps, providing future research directions and promoting research and education at the molecular level in this extremely important and challenging area of science for years to come. The IUPAC Project Committee noted that the Conference identifies, and builds on, the need to view and understand the Critical Zone at the molecular level. The book will be an invaluable reference for research and education. -- Contents: Part I. Soil Microbial Processes -- Sorption Behavior and Bioavailability of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) in Soils; Microbial Extracellular Enzymes and the Degradation of Natural and Synthetic Polymers in Soil; Structure, Biological Activity and Environmental Fate of Insecticidal Bt (Bacillus thuringiensis) Cry Proteins of Bacterial and Genetically Modified Plant Origin; Role of Bacteria and Archaea in Nitrification, Nitrate Leaching and Nitrous Oxide Emissions in Nitrogen-Rich Grassland Soils; Part II. Heavy Metals in Soil -- Advances in the Use of Synchrotron Radiation to Elucidate Environmental Interfacial Reaction Processes and Mechanisms in the Earth's Critical Zone; Microbial Roles in Mineral Transformations and Metal Cycling in the Earth's Critical Zone; Role of Biomolecules in Influencing Transformation Mechanisms of Metals and Metalloids in Soil Environments; Interaction between Heavy Metals and Variable Charge Surfaces; Part III. Adsorption and Diffusion Processes in Soil -- Electrostatic Field Effect from Surface Charges on Ion Diffusion/​Adsorption in Soil; Effects of "Aging" on Bioreactive Chemical Retention, Transformation, and Transport in Soil; Sorption Comparison between Pharmaceuticals and Hydrophobic Organic Chemicals in Soils and Sediments; Adsorption of Dissolved Organic Compounds by Black Carbon; Part IV. Soil Management -- Subsurface Soil Acidification in Farming Systems: Its Possible Causes and Management Options; Microbial Indicators of Soil Quality in Upland Soils; Impacts of Agricultural Management Practices on Soil Quality.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Evapotranspiration and its components (evaporation and transpiration) as a process is one of the basic terms of Earth's water balance; its importance is accented by the fact that transpiration is the vital element of the biomass production process. The second important property of evapotranspiration is its extreme consumption of solar energy, thus controlling the temperature of the atmosphere and creating favourable conditions for life. Evapotranspiration as an energy consuming process is also the connection between the energy and mass cycles of the Earth. Evapotranspiration is a process performing in the Soil-Plant -Atmosphere System (SPAS); therefore this book is presenting and quantifying it as a catenary process, describing transport of water in the soil, including root extraction patterns and methods of its evaluation. Transport of water through the plant and from the canopy to the atmosphere is also described and quantified. A variety of evapotranspiration (and its componentsevaporation and transpiration) calculation methods are described, starting from empirical methods up to the most sophisticated ones based on the solution of the transport equations of water and energy in the SPAS. The most important (and widely used) calculation method - modified Penman-Monteith method is described in details, ready to be used with data in the book only. Water balance method of evapotranspiration estimation as well as sap flow method description can be found in the book as well. The book can be used by hydrologists, biologists, meteorologists and other specialists as well as by ecology students.Key themes: soil hydrology - evapotranspiration - hydropedology- plant physiology - water movement in soils - evaporation - transpirationDr. Viliam Novák is a water resources scientist at the Institute of Hydrology of the Slovak Academy of Sciences in Bratislava (Slovakia).…
