Produktinformationen zu „Stable Isotopes in Ecology and Environmental Science (PDF)“
This book highlights new and emerging uses of stable isotope analysis in a variety of ecological disciplines. While the use of natural abundance isotopes in ecological research is now relatively standard, new techniques and ways of interpreting patterns are developing rapidly. The second edition of this book provides a thorough, up-to-date examination of these methods of research.
As part of the Ecological Methods and Concepts series which provides the latest information on experimental techniques in ecology, this book looks at a wide range of techniques that use natural abundance isotopes to:
* follow whole ecosystem element cycling
* understand processes of soil organic matter formation
* follow the movement of water in whole watersheds
* understand the effects of pollution in both terrestrial and aquatic environments
* study extreme systems such as hydrothermal vents
* follow migrating organisms
In each case, the book explains the background to the methodology, looks at the underlying principles and assumptions, and outlines the potential limitations and pitfalls.
Stable Isotopes in Ecology and Environmental Science is an ideal resource for both ecologists who are new to isotopic analysis, and more experienced isotope ecologists interested in innovative techniques and pioneering new uses.

Autoren-Porträt
Robert Michener is the Laboratory Manager of the BostonUniversity Stable Isotope Laboratory and has been running the
internationally recognized facility for 18 years. His research
interests include aquatic ecology, food web systems, and how stable
isotopes can be applied to tracing pollutants, comparing pristine
and impacted systems.
Kate Lajtha is a Professor in the Department of Botany
and Plant Pathology at Oregon State University and the
Editor-in-Chief of Biogeochemistry. She is a terrestrial
biogeochemist who studies soil organic matter stabilization and
soil solution chemistry.
