Organic Ligands in Marine Trace Metal Biogeochemistry
This research topic highlights the most recent accomplishments of a Scientific Committee on Oceanic Research (SCOR) Working Group, SCOR WG 139: Organic Ligands - A Key Control on Trace Metal Biogeochemistry in the Ocean.
Biological and Environmental Chemistry of DMSP and Related Sulfonium Compounds
''An essential book for people working in the area of sulfur compounds in the environment and should be in all institutional libraries....Well indexed, well presented.'' --- SGM Quarterly, November 1997 ''Extremely useful and well-produced symposium volume that should be of interest to many environmental scientists, microbial and plant physiologists, and aquatic ecologists.'' The Quarterly Review of Biology, June 1998
The Metal-Driven Biogeochemistry of Gaseous Compounds in the Environment
MILS-14 provides a most up-to-date view of the exciting biogeochemistry of gases in our environment as driven mostly by microorganisms. These employ a machinery of sophisticated metalloenzymes, where especially transition metals (such as Fe, Ni, Cu, Mo, W) play a fundamental role, that is, in the activation, transformation and syntheses of gases like dihydrogen, methane, carbon monoxide, acetylene and those of the biological nitrogen and sulfur cycles. The Metal-Driven Biogeochemistry of Gaseous Compounds in the Environment is a vibrant research area based mainly on structural and microbial biology, inorganic biological chemistry and environmental biochemistry. All this is covered in an auth...
Ocean-Atmosphere Interactions of Gases and Particles
The oceans and atmosphere interact through various processes, including the transfer of momentum, heat, gases and particles. In this book leading international experts come together to provide a state-of-the-art account of these exchanges and their role in the Earth-system, with particular focus on gases and particles. Chapters in the book cover: i) the ocean-atmosphere exchange of short-lived trace gases; ii) mechanisms and models of interfacial exchange (including transfer velocity parameterisations); iii) ocean-atmosphere exchange of the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide; iv) ocean atmosphere exchange of particles and v) current and future data collection and synt...
Antarctic Krill and Interactions in the East Antarctic Ecosystem
Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) is the target of the largest commercial fishery in the Southern Ocean. Its abundance varies regionally and exhibits great interannual variability. This natural variability, combined with climate change effects, could have substantial consequent impacts on krill predators and the magnitude of ecologically sustainable fishery catch limits. Recent increase in the krill catch is due to technological developments in both harvesting and catch processing methods, as well as interest in new products derived from krill (e.g., dietary supplements and pet food). The krill fishery is managed by the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (...
Cyanobacterial Physiology
Cyanobacteria are ancient, primordial oxygenic phototrophs, and probably the progenitor of oxygen-evolving photosynthesis. They are a prolific source of natural products and metabolites and vitally important for environmental biology and biotechnology. Cyanobacterial Physiology presents foundational knowledge alongside the most recent advances in cyanobacterial biology. The title examines the challenges of industrial application through an understanding of the basic molecular machinery of cyanobacteria. Sixteen chapters are organized into three sections. The first part covers basic cyanobacterial biology, emphasizing environmental biology such as photosynthesis, nitrogen fixation, circadian ...
