Fungi in biogeochemical cycles / Geoffrey Michael Gadd (2006)  

Public ISBD Titre : Fungi in biogeochemical cycles Type de document : livre Auteurs : Geoffrey Michael Gadd, Éditeur scientifique ; Geoffrey Michael Gadd Mention d'édition : 1st ed. Editeur : Cambridge : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2006 Collection : British mycological symposium series, 24 Importance : 469 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-521-84579-3 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Biogeochemical cycles  Fungi  Mycorrhizal fungi Résumé : Fungi play important roles in the cycling of elements in the biosphere but are frequently neglected within microbiological and geochemical research spheres. Symbiotic mycorrhizal fungi are responsible for major transformations and redistribution of inorganic nutrients, while free-living fungi have major roles in the decomposition of organic materials, including xenobiotics. Fungi are also major biodeterioration agents of stone, wood, plaster, cement and other building materials, and are important components of rock-inhabiting microbial communities. The aim of this book is to promote further understanding of the key roles that free-living and symbiotic fungi (in mycorrhizas and lichens) play in the biogeochemical cycling of elements, the chemical and biological mechanisms that are involved, and their environmental and biotechnological significance. Where appropriate, relationships with bacteria are also discussed to highlight the dynamic interactions that can exist between these major microbial groups and their integrated function in several kinds of habitat.

Forest diversity and function: temperate and boreal systems / Michael Scherer-Lorenzen (2005)  

Public ISBD Titre : Forest diversity and function: temperate and boreal systems Type de document : livre Auteurs : Michael Scherer-Lorenzen, Éditeur scientifique ; C. Körner, Éditeur scientifique ; Ernst-Detlef Schulze, Éditeur scientifique Editeur : Berlin : Springer Année de publication : 2005 Collection : Ecological studies; 176 Importance : 399 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-3-540-22191-3 Note générale : ISBN-10 : 3-540-22191-3; This volume summarizes the results of a LINKECOL workshop held in Weimar, Germany, 13-15 June 2002 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Biodiversity  Biogeochemical cycles  Boreal forests  Congresses  Forest ecology  Temperate forests Résumé : One of the central research themes in ecology is evaluating the extent to which biological richness is necessary to sustain the Earth's system and the functioning of individual ecosystems. In this volume, for the first time, the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem processes in forests is thoroughly explored. The text examines the multiple effects of tree diversity on productivity and growth, biogeochemical cycles, animals, pests, and disturbances. Further, the importance of diversity at different scales, ranging from stand management to global issues, is considered. The authors provide both extensive reviews of the existing literature and own datasets. The volume is ideally suited for researchers and practitioners involved in ecosystem management and the sustainable use of forest resources.

Principles of terrestrial ecosystem ecology / Chapin, F.S. (2011)  

Public ISBD Titre : Principles of terrestrial ecosystem ecology Type de document : livre Auteurs : Chapin, F.S., Auteur ; Matson, P.A., Auteur ; Vitousek, P.M., Auteur Mention d'édition : 2nd ed. Editeur : New York : Springer Année de publication : 2011 Importance : 529 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-4419-9502-5 Note générale : Voir aussi la 1ère édition de 2002 à la cote 67407/15 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Applied Ecology  Biogeochemical cycles  Biological systems  Ecosystem management Résumé : L'éditeur indique : Humans have directly modified half of the ice-free terrestrial surface and use 40% of terrestrial production. We are causing the sixth major extinction event in the history of life on Earth. With the Earth’s climate, flora, and fauna changing rapidly, there is a pressing need to understand terrestrial ecosystem processes and their sensitivity to environmental and biotic changes. This book offers a framework to do just that. Ecosystem ecology regards living organisms, including people, and the elements of their environment as components of a single integrated system. The comprehensive coverage in this textbook examines the central processes at work in terrestrial ecosystems, including their freshwater components. It traces the flow of energy, water, carbon, and nutrients from their abiotic origins to their cycles through plants, animals, and decomposer organisms. As well as detailing the processes themselves, the book goes further to integrate them at various scales of magnitude—those of the ecosystem, the wider landscape and the globe. It synthesizes recent advances in ecology with established and emerging ecosystem theory to offer a wide-ranging survey of ecosystem patterns and processes in our terrestrial environment. Featuring review questions at the end of each chapter, suggestions for further reading, and a glossary of ecological terms, Principles of Terrestrial Ecosystem Ecology is a vitally relevant text suitable for study in all courses in ecosystem ecology. Resource managers and researchers in many fields will welcome its thorough presentation of ecosystem essentials.
