soil ecology

Some view this as unsustainable due to the damage to soil ecology of the Marsh.

Soil ecology - Soil and water management and modelling.

Actinomyces are known for causing disease in humans, and for the important role they play in soil ecology.

Areas of study included acid rain, nutrient cycling, soil ecology, and more recently, forest carbon uptake and loss.

Soil ecology is the study of the interactions among soil organisms, and between biotic and abiotic aspects of the soil environment.

The feature of gliding motility alone has piqued the interest of many, since the role of gliding bacteria in soil ecology is poorly understood.

The effects of soil biota and fertilization on the success of Sapium sebiferum Applied Soil Ecology 38:1-11.

Digging - which can upset a perfectly balanced soil ecology, expose weed seeds for germination, as well as releasing carbon into the atmosphere - is also minimised.

In 1953, he went to Ghana as a Research Fellow at the University College before returning to Manchester to obtain his doctorate in soil ecology.

Dr. Peter Groffman of the Institute of Ecosystem Studies in Millbrook, N.Y., said, "It's the hottest topic in forest soil ecology."

While Charles Darwin is mainly noted for his treatise on evolution, he was one of the founders of soil ecology, and he made note of the first ecological experiment in The Origin of Species.

In addition, artificial high-nitrogen fertilizers can "burn" the soil by creating an unfavorable environment for indigenous organisms, a phenomenon well-known to organic gardeners and farmers (who avoid it), resulting in further disruption of soil ecology and dependence on further short-term fertilizer strategies.

Koffler Scientific Reserve at Jokers Hill (KSR) is the site of many ongoing research projects, including studies in forest ecology, soil ecology, biological invasions, plant defences, fungal biodiversity, pollinating insects, plant reproductive ecology, and ecological impacts of global change.

Dash has done pioneering work in vermitechnology, soil ecology, conservation of sea turtles, population biology, quantitative ecology, energetics of soil oligochaetes, larval energetics of amphibia, environmental impact assessment (EIA), sustainable development, environe and environmental pollution and its mitigation.

Research interests span many aspects of soil ecology and microbiology, Fundamentally, researchers are interested in understanding the interplay among microorganisms, fauna, and plants, the biogeochemical processes they carry out, and the physical environment in which their activities take place, and applying this knowledge to address environmental problems.

While economically a very efficient system, allowing for specialization in equipment and crop production, monocropping is also controversial, as it can damage the soil ecology (including depletion or reduction in diversity of soil nutrients) and provide an unbuffered niche for parasitic species, increasing crop vulnerability to opportunistic insects, plants, and microorganisms.
