Soil Biology and Biochemistry

The scope of Soil Biology & Biochemistry is wide and embraces accounts of recent original research on any aspect of the biology and biochemistry of soils. Some of the subjects that are receiving increasing attention are: novel molecular approaches to explore community dynamics and processes and provide bioassays for soil phenomena; modelling of soil biological and biochemical processes; mitigation and adaption to climate change; carbon storage and soil organic matter dynamics; effects of introduced genetically modified organisms; application and outcomes of biotechnology on the soil environment and its biological functions; biological farming; role of soil biota in ecological engineering; microbial and plant signalling mechanisms; effects of invasive species; soil structure and biota interactions; and relationships between the biota and soil physicochemical properties
