Description:
Now in its second edition, Global Environmental Change has been extensively revised and rewritten to reflect the growth in environmental research during the last decade. Human-induced environmental change is occurring at such a rapid rate that, inevitably, the fundamental processes involved in biogeochemical cycling are being altered.
The book examines alterations to the biogeochemical cycles of carbon, nitrogen, sulfur, and other elements as a result of industrial/technological development and agriculture, which have significantly altered the natural environment. It adopts a temporal and spatial approach to environmental change, starting with the natural environmental changes of the Quaternary period and continuing through culturally induced changes since the inception of agriculture 10,000 years ago.
