Biogeochemistry of Inland Waters [Paperback]

A derivative of the Encyclopedia of Inland Waters, Biogeochemistry of Inland Waters examines the transformation, flux and cycling of chemical compounds in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, combining aspects of biology, ecology, geology, and chemistry. Because the articles are drawn from an encyclopedia, they are easily accessible to interested members of the public, such as conservationists and environmental decision makers.

• This derivative text describes biogeochemical cycles of organic and inorganic elements and compounds in freshwater ecosystems
