The chemical and functional characterization of soil N and its biotic components
Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2009Abstract The aim of this review is to describe and discuss the concepts that have been employed to interpret N mineralization–immobilization in soil, and how N turnover is related to the characteristics of organic N and the biota conducting the transformations.

Invasive species and biotic homogenization in temperate aquatic plant communities
, 2020AIM: Biotic homogenization (BH), a reduction in the distinctness of species composition between geographically separated ecological communities in a region, is an important but underappreciated potential consequence of biological invasions.

Plant-Microbiome Interaction and the Effects of Biotic and Abiotic Components in Agroecosystem [PDF]
, 2019 A myriad of microorganisms colonizes the plant habitats and influences the flora and fauna along with the soil microenvironments. These microbes dwell in three major compartments such as spermosphere, rhizosphere, and phyllosphere. Plant rhizodeposits are the root exudates that determine the nature of root-colonizing microbes.

Spatial components of biotic diversity in landscapes of Georgia, USA
Landscape Ecology, 1991Traditional measures of species diversity and spatially-explicit measures of landscape diversity (derived from Romme 1982) are used to compare biotic diversity in six landscapes across Georgia, USA; two each from the Appalachian Highlands, Piedmont, and Coastal Plain.

The interactions of the physical and biotic components on a reclaimed coastal foredune
Journal of Arid Environments, 1990Foredunes are generally shore-parallel, convex, vegetated ridges separated by concave swales, formed by aeolian deposition within vegetation. Coastal foredunes consist of two or three distinct geomorpho-floristic zones. The floristic gradient resulting from a regression analysis was correlated with the amount and frequency of sand movement occurring on

Persistent Organic Pollutants in Biotic and Abiotic Components of Antarctic Pristine Environment
Earth Systems and Environment, 2018Over the past decades, research in Antarctica has built a new understanding of Antarctica, its past, present and future. Human activities and long-range pollutants are increasing on the Antarctic continent. Research on persistent organic pollutants (POPs) has been carried out internationally by several countries having their permanent research stations

THE STATE OF KNOWLEDGE OF WATER QUALITY AND MAJOR BIOTIC COMPONENTS OF THE MHLATHUZE ESTUARY [PDF]
Southern African Journal of Aquatic Sciences, 1998 Summary This note briefly introduces the concept of the Environmental Reserve of the New Water Act as well as the set of papers hereafter which deal with specific components of the ecology of the Mhlathuze Estuary. These were prepared for an Estuarine Flow Requirements study of the system.

Trace metal enhancement in the biotic and abiotic components of an estuarine tidal front
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1978A frontal system of lower Delaware Bay was investigated to illustrate the role that such tidal fronts can have in concentrating trace metals and serving as a means for introducing trace metals into the trophic hierarchy of estuaries. This frontal system typically develops on ebb tide and can extend at least 32 km parallel to the central axis of ...
