Description


AIMS

Soil Biology & Biochemistry publishes original and scientifically challenging research articles and short communications that present new findings and their possible applications. The ecology and biochemical activities of soil organisms and their effects on the environment and plant growth are major topics. The journal also publishes state-of-the-art reviews of current research that provide significant and novel hypotheses as well as comments and arguments about specific and often controversial aspects of life in the soil.

SCOPE

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: modelling of soil biological and biochemical processes; the influence of climate change; effects of the introduction of genetically modified organisms; application and outcomes of biotechnology on the soil environment and its biological functions; novel molecular approaches to explore community dynamics and processes; microbial and plant signalling mechanisms; effects of invasive species; soil structure-biota interactions; and relationships between the biota and soil physico-chemical properties.
