Sinopsis

Explore how carbon moves through forests, oceans, and soils—and why it matters for climate.

This book gathers key findings from a Brookhaven Symposium, focusing on the global carbon cycle and the roles of living and nonliving carbon pools. It discusses how detritus, humus, and other organic matter are measured, modeled, and interpreted to reveal the world’s carbon picture.

- Understand detritus pools, sampling challenges, and the importance of deep soil carbon.
- Learn how particulate and dissolved organic carbon in oceans are defined, measured, and compared.
- See how carbon-cycle models help predict changes and guide research efforts.
- Review practical research recommendations, including satellite surveillance ideas for land-use and productivity.

Ideal for readers of environmental science, ecology, and climate research seeking a concise, field-informed view of carbon in the biosphere.

Reseña del editor

Excerpt from Carbon and the Biosphere: Proceedings of the 24th Brookhaven Symposium in Biology, Upton, New York, May 16 18, 1972

The symposium was followed by another meeting of special ists who prepared a summary for The Institute of Ecology. The summary has been reproduced here as an appendix.

Many of our colleagues contributed generously to the meeting and have assisted us in publication. Special thanks go to Virginia Sayre, Jack Craig, Virginia Diebel, Helen Kondratuk, and Irene Rosati of Brookhaven who skillfully tended to the details of the conference. For coordinating and preparing the proceedings of this symposium for publication, we especially thank Anne Goulden, Editorial Branch, Technical Information Center, U. S. Atomic Energy Commission.
