Description for Architecture and Biology of Soils: Life in Inner Space
Hardback. Soil is a fundamental and critical, yet often overlooked, component of terrestrial ecosystems. It is an extremely complex environment, supporting levels of diversity far greater than any ecosystem above ground. This book explores how soil structure develops and the consequences this has for life underground. Editor(s): Ritz, Karl; Young, I.M. Num Pages: 256 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: RBGB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 253 x 180 x 22. Weight in Grams: 790. Life in Inner Space. 256 pages, Illustrations.

Soil is a fundamental and critical, yet often overlooked, component of terrestrial ecosystems. It is an extremely complex environment, supporting levels of diversity far greater than any ecosystem above ground. Bringing together existing knowledge in the areas of soil biology and physics, this book explores the key characteristics of soil spatial architecture, including how it develops and the consequences this has for life underground. The effects of soil's physical and biological components on their interactions and functions are used to demonstrate their roles in ecosystem dynamics.

About Karl Ritz
I am a soil ecologist, convinced that soil is the most remarkable, complex and fascinating material on the planet…. as well as absolutely fundamental to our past and future civilisations. I graduated in Agricultural Botany from the University of Reading in 1981, and completed a PhD in grassland ecology at the University of Bristol in 1984, then moving to Scotland ... Read more
