The Biogeochemistry of the Amazon Basin synthesizes more than a decade of process-level research into the flows of water, carbon, nutrients and other bioactive elements through Amazon terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Emphasis is placed on the unique combinations of physical and biogeochemical conditions that support sustainable development of the region.
Reviews
I found this book fascinating, well written and readable, yet full of facts and figures regarding carbon flows, nutrient flows, water quality and interactions with the atmosphere. I would strongly recommend it for every library, and for anyone interested in the reported environmental changes associated with the Amazon forests. * Geoscientist *
