Description for Biogeochemistry of a Forested Ecosystem
Paperback. This book describes the integration of several different approaches to examine questions regarding the function of interesting plant metabolites. This new edition generates new syntheses and conclusions about the biogeochemistry of the Hubbard Brook Valley. Num Pages: 229 pages, 34 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PNV; PSAF; RG; TVB; TVR. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 235 x 155 x 13. Weight in Grams: 373.
The goal of this Third Edition is to update long-term data presented in earlier editions and to generate new syntheses and conclusions about the biogeochemistry of the Hubbard Brook Valley based on these longer-term data. There have been many changes, revelations, and exciting new insights generated from the longer data records. For example, the impact of acid rain peaked during the period of the HBES and is now declining. The longer-term data also posed challenges in that very marked changes in fluxes occurred in some components, such as hydrogen ion and sulfate deposition, calcium and nitrate export in stream water ...

About Gene E. Likens
Dr. Likens' research focuses on the ecology and biogeochemistry of forest and aquatic ecosystems, primarily through long-term studies at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. He was the co-founder of the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study in 1963, which has shed light on critical links between ecosystem function and land-use practices. He and his colleagues ... Read more
Reviews for Biogeochemistry of a Forested Ecosystem
From the book reviews: “This third edition … continues the release of data and interpretations related to the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest (HBEF) in New Hampshire. … The HBEF system is a well-circumscribed site, providing a detailed large-scale area where changes in the availability, cycling, and fluxes of chemical elements and other matter can be monitored. … Summing Up: ...
