This book reviews the theory and practice of a range of the various microbiological methods used within these programmes. The first section gives an overview of approaches to monitoring, evaluating and managing soil quality. The second section provides a practical handbook with detailed descriptions of the methods. The methods are described in chapters on soil microbial biomass and numbers, soil microbial activity, soil microbial dSoil microbiologySoilsAnalysisSoilsQualitySoil microbiology.SoilsAnalysis.SoilsQuality.579/.1757Benedetti AnnaDr.294031Bloem Jaap1958-306585Hopkins David W.Dr.306586MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910446314903321Microbiological methods for assessing soil quality2229735UNINA
