9780126312607: Global Biogeochemical Cycles in the Climate System

Sinopsis

The interactions of biogeochemical cycles influence and maintain our climate system. Land use and fossil fuel emissions are currently impacting the biogeochemical cycles of carbon, nitrogen and sulfur on land, in the atmosphere, and in the oceans. This edited volume brings together 27 scholarly contributions on the state of our knowledge of earth system interactions among the oceans, land, and atmosphere. A unique feature of this treatment is the focus on the paleoclimatic and paleobiotic context for investigating these complex interrelationships.

Acerca del autor

Charlotte y Peter Fiell son dos autoridades en historia, teoría y crítica del diseño y han escrito más de sesenta libros sobre la materia, muchos de los cuales se han convertido en éxitos de ventas. También han impartido conferencias y cursos como profesores invitados, han comisariado exposiciones y asesorado a fabricantes, museos, salas de subastas y grandes coleccionistas privados de todo el mundo. Los Fiell han escrito numerosos libros para TASCHEN, entre los que se incluyen 1000 Chairs, Diseño del siglo XX, El diseño industrial de la A a la Z, Scandinavian Design y Diseño del siglo XXI.

De la contraportada

The editors present a book on global biogeochemistry by an international group of leading scientists that summarizes the interactions and linkages between ocean, land, and atmosphere. Chapters explore the role of these interactions in earth system analysis and discuss likely future developments. Emphasis is given to the global carbon and nitrogen cycles, including the role of soils. The specific features of biogeochemical cycles in major biomes (rainforest, savanna, boreal forest, and arctic) are analyzed, as are earth systems interactions on geological time scales. Because the anthropogenic effects of fossil fuel emission and land-use change dominate some of the natural effects in global biogeochemical cycles, the book also covers the socioeconomic aspects of global change. This edited treatise is aimed at advanced students and researchers in earth science, biology, agriculture, and forestry and is a strategic landmark in the development of the interdisciplinary field of biogeochemistry.|The editors present a book on global biogeochemistry by an international group of leading scientists that summarizes the interactions and linkages between ocean, land, and atmosphere.
