Global Change and Forest Soils: Cultivating Stewardship of a Finite Natural Resource de Matt Busse

Global Change and Forest Soils: Cultivating Stewardship of a Finite Natural Resource: Developments in Soil Science, cartea 36

Matt Busse, Christian Giardina, Dave Morris, Deborah Page-Dumroese
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 noi 2019
Global Change and Forest Soils: Cultivating Stewardship of a Finite Natural Resource, Volume 36, provides a state-of-the-science summary and synthesis of global forest soils that identifies concerns, issues and opportunities for soil adaptation and mitigation as external pressures from global changes arise. Where, how and why some soils are resilient to global change while others are at risk is explored, as are upcoming train wrecks and success stories across boreal, temperate, and tropical forests. Each chapter offers multiple sections written by leading soil scientists who comment on wildfires, climate change and forest harvesting effects, while also introducing examples of current global issues.
Readers will find this book to be an integrated, up-to-date assessment on global forest soils.


  • Presents sections on boreal, temperate and tropical soils for a diverse audience
  • Serves as an important reference source for anyone interested in both a big-picture assessment of global soil issues and an in-depth examination of specific environmental topics
  • Provides a unique synthesis of forest soils and their collective ability to respond to global change
  • Offers chapters written by leading soil scientists
  • Prepares readers to meet the daily challenges of drafting multi-resource environmental science and policy documents

Public țintă

Environmental resource specialists, policy analysts, and scientists interested in increasing their understanding of the state-of-the-world’s forest soils. Each chapter will offer multiple sections written by leading soil scientists that provide a synthesis of general topics (e.g., wildfire, climate change, or forest harvesting effects on soil) and introduce specific examples of current global issues. The chapters will include separate sections on boreal, temperate, and tropical soils, thereby attracting a widespread and diverse audience.
