Climate Change and Soil Interactions: Drivers and Pathways for Sustainability, Second Edition examines soil system interactions and conservation strategies regarding the effects of climate change. It presents cutting-edge research in soil carbonization, soil biodiversity, and vegetation. As a resource for strategies in maintaining various interactions for eco-sustainability, topical chapters address microbial response and soil health in relation to climate change, as well as soil improvement practices. Understanding soil systems, including their various physical, chemical, and biological interactions, is imperative for regaining the vitality of soil system under changing climatic conditions. This book will address the impact of changing climatic conditions on various beneficial interactions operational in soil systems and recommend suitable strategies for maintaining such interactions. Studies on climate change and soil interactions are evolving rapidly, so the book needs an update to continue allowing agricultural, ecological, and environmental researchers to obtain up-to-date, state-of-the-art, and reliable information on the impact of changing conditions climate in various interactions with the soil. Climate Change and Soil Interactions: Drivers and Pathways for Sustainability, Second Edition provides insights for soil scientists and climatologists with the most up-to-date information on the dynamic relationship between climate change and soils.
