Marine sediments support complex interactions between macro- and microorganisms. What is the state of the science on such interactions from costal and estuarine environments to the deep sea? How does such knowledge effect environmental management? And what does future research hold in store for scientists, engineers, resource managers, and educators? Marine Sediments: Interactions between Macro- and Microorganisms responds to these questions, and more, by focusing on: -Interactions between plants, microorganisms, and marine sediment -Interactions between animals, microorganisms, and marine sediment -Interactions between macro- and microorganisms and the structuring of benthic communities -Impact of animal and plant activity on sediment geochemistry -Conceptual and numeric models of interactions between macro- and microorganisms
Here is an authoritative overview of the research, experimentation and modeling approaches now in use in our rapidly evolving understanding of life in marine sediments.
