Описание:
Soils and Landscape Restoration provides a multi-disciplinary synthesis of the sustainable management and restoration of soils in various landscapes. This book presents applicable knowledge of above- and below-ground interactions and biome specific realizations along with in-depth investigation of particular soil degradation pathways. The bookfocuses on severely degraded soils (e.g., eroded, salinized, mined) and well as restoration of wetlands, grasslands, and forests. Soils and Landscape Restoration addresses the need to bring current perspectives towards land degradation and restoration in soil science and restoration ecology together to better incorporate soil-based information when restoration plans are formulated, to anticipate the effects of restoration treatments on soil processes, and to monitor soil health.

Описание: The 45000 annual forest fires in Europe lay waste to 0.5m hectares of forests and other rural lands. This book addresses the vital issue of post-fire management of burned areas, a subject beset by serious environmental, economic and social issues.
Описание: This book presents a comprehensive collection of various in situ and ex-situ soil remediation regimes that employ natural or genetically modified microbes, plants, and animals for the biodegradation of toxic compounds or hazardous waste into simpler non-toxic products. These techniques are demonstrated to be functionally effective in connection with physical, chemical, and biological strategies. Soil and water contamination through heavy metals, hydrocarbons and radioactive wastes is of global concern, as these factors have cumulative effects on the environment and human health through food-chain contamination. The book discusses the utilization of algae, plants, plant-associated bacteria, fungi (endophytic or rhizospheric) and certain lower animals for the sustainable bioremediation of organic and inorganic pollutants. In addition, it explores a number of more recent techniques like biochar and biofilms for carbon sequestration, soil conditioning and remediation, and water remediation. It highlights a number of recent advances in nanobioremediation, an emerging technology based on biosynthetic nanoparticles. Lastly, it presents illustrative case studies and highlights the successful treatment of polluted soils by means of these strategies.

Описание: Soils in urban areas have multiple functions which are becoming more valued by urban communities: soils supply water, nutrients and physical support for urban plant and animal communities (parks, reserves, gardens), and are becoming increasingly valued for growing food.
Описание: This book explores freeze-thaw effects on the accumulation and release of carbon and nitrogen in wetland soils, as a step toward investigating wetland biogeochemical processes in seasonal freeze-thaw areas. Offers strategies aimed at impacts of global warming.

Описание: Tree species differ in their effects on soil properties and biogeochemical cycles. This book examines the state of knowledge of the effects of tree species on soils, considering evidence from broad natural gradients in species distributions, and from `common garden` experiments where several species have been planted on the same site.

Описание: This book offers perspectives on how to develop a sustainable global balance of urbanization, land-use intensification, land abandonment, and multifunctional cultural landscapes. The focus is on the latter by describing the large variety of traditional cultural landscapes having evolved through centuries or even millennia by the use of the natural, terrestrial and aquatic resources. Those cultural landscapes encompass pasture, agroforestry, terraced, irrigation, coastal, monastic, and sacred landscapes as well as lake-, river-, and saltscapes. The restoration of low-input land-use systems which often carry a high biodiversity on the species, ecosystem, and landscape level as well as agrobiodiversity and agrodiversity is outlined. The restoration of multifunctional and diverse landscapes, however, is not only an ecological issue but encompasses many socio-economic aspects such as e.g., the revitalization of villages, eco-tourism, healthy food production, infrastructure, and rural-urban partnerships. Global environmental problems, which are related to urbanization and the intensification of the use of land and water resources are comprehensively outlined. Land abandonment which occurs on all continents is qualitatively and quantitatively assessed and the consequences for natural and cultural heritage loss is highlighted. With the presentation of current rural development and landscape conservation strategies on the national as well as international level, the topic reflects the high significance of environmental policy on the global scale. The global implementation of natural and cultural heritage conservation is, for example, given by the UNESCO World Heritage Sites, National Parks, Biosphere Reserves, Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Sites, High Nature Value Farmland, and the Satoyama initiative. However, also the “every-day” landscapes can contribute to biodiversity and strong sustainability. This comprehensive compendium, based on about 4,000 references of scientific studies, literature reviews, project reports, and environmental policy papers is thought for all students, scholars, and stakeholders from multifaceted disciplines, interested in multifunctional cultural landscapes and how traditions and innovation on the landscape level can be merged for a sustainable future on our planet. Case studies from all over the world are presented which can be used in Higher Education or to demonstrate the numerous approaches of sustainable rural development.

Описание: This book provides an introduction to a fairly new approach to natural resources management practice entitled ecohydrology-based landscape restoration.
Описание: Microorganisms are a good indicator of soil health. Plant growth-promoting microorganisms protect plants from the stresses of water, salt, metal, biotic, and so on, and are well known for strategically modulating the plant mechanisms to defend and mitigate environmental stresses. Taking a multidisciplinary approach, this volume explores the role of plant microorganisms in ecological and agricultural revitalization beyond normal agriculture practices and offers practical and applied solutions for the restoration of degraded lands to fulfill human needs with food, fodder, fuel, and fiber. It also provides a single comprehensive platform for soil scientists, agriculture specialists, ecologists, and those in related disciplines.Features• Presents cutting-edge microbial biotechnology as a tool for restoring degraded lands• Explores the aspects of sustainable development of degraded lands using microorganism-inspired land remediation• Highlights sustainable food production intensification in nutrient-poor lands through innovative use of microbial inoculants• Explains the remediation of polluted land for regaining biodiversity and achieving United Nations Sustainable Development Goals• Includes many real-life applications from South Asia offering solutions to today’s agricultural problemsThis book will be of interest to professionals, researchers, and students in environmental, soil, and agricultural sciences as well as stakeholders, policy makers, and practitioners with an interest in this field.
