Ehrlich's Geomicrobiology

This new edition surveys various aspects of geomicrobiology, including the microbial role in elemental cycling and in the formation and degradation of minerals and fossil fuels. Unlike the previous edition, many expert contributors besides the editors have been included, providing added depth to topics and broadening the overall insights. The new breadth of scope and possible applications in agriculture, forestry, aquaculture, marine science, the metals industry, and more that this book presents make it a must-have source in geomicrobiology.
