Produktbeschreibung

Geomicrobiology is a combination of geology and microbiology, and includes the study of the interaction of microorganisms with their environment, such as those that occur with sedimentary rocks. This is a new and rapidly-developing field that has led in the past decade to a radically revised view of the diversity and activity of microbial life on Earth. Geomicrobiology examines the role that microbes have played in the past and are currently playing in a number of fundamental geological processes. The book is of great importance for students and researchers working in the fields of microbiology, biotechnology, geology and environmental biotechnology.
