Coordinator(s): P.
M. Huang, N.
Senesi, J.-M. Bollag
Completion Date: 2002 - project completed
Objective:
The programme aims to integrate the existing fundamental information
on the interactions of environmental particles and microorganisms
and the impact on the terrestrial ecosystem, and to promote fundamental
research in this very significant and exciting area of science.
It will cover many kinds of interaction between mineral or organic
particles and microorganisms, effects of soil colloids on microbial
and enzymatic activity, microbial mobilization of nutrients and
toxic metals from minerals, interactions in the rhizosphere, global
ion cycling, organic pollutant transformation, and processes in
the subsurface. The programme requires the cooperation of many recognized
scientists in the field who have been selected by the commission..
Progress:
Internationally recognized persons have been selected to complete
this task. The book arising from this project, on topics that analyze
the interplay between environment chemistry and (micro)biology,
are in press. As with the earlier books in the Series, this volume
(Vol. 8) collects critical reviews that characterize the current
state of the art and provide guidelines for future research. John
Wiley & Sons, Chichester, England is the publisher of this book.
The book title is the same as the project title. The project coordinators
are the book editors.
