	Soils & Water Science Institute: Biogeochemistry of Wetlands
		The primary driver of these processes is the ecosystem biogeochemistry, which includes chemical, biological and physical processes in the soil and water column.
		Biogeochemistry is an interdisciplinary science, which includes the study of interactive biological, geological and chemical processes regulating the fate and transport of nutrients and contaminants in soil, water and atmospheric components of an ecosystem.
		Biogeochemistry also provides a framework to integrate physical, chemical and biological processes functioning in an ecosystem at various spatial and temporal scales.

	CGI : Biogeochemistry & Biocomplexity
		Biogeochemistry and Biocomplexity (BBI) is a research focus that integrates components of the basic environmental natural sciences, and that, within the NLSI context, explores in a fundamental way the connections between the physical, chemical, and biological sciences.
		Biogeochemistry brings together biological, hydrological, and geochemical approaches with a common goal of understanding environments as complex integrated systems.
		BBI is being implemented by seeking advice and then consensus among interested faculty for the directions in which this part of basic environmental science should move at Cornell.

	MIT CGCS Research: Greenhouse Gases
		An additional hurdle, apart from the construction and validation of the model, is to devise methods that relate measurements at one locality to emissions from another locality, which can be computed without resort to prohibitively long computer runs.
		Progressing toward the goal of accurate prediction of atmospheric composition, CGCS researchers have also developed global two-dimensional (latitude, longitude) biogeochemistry models for natural surface sources and sinks of CH4 and N2O, which are necessary for handling non-anthropogenic emissions.
		These natural emissions models are now being incorporated into a two-dimensional (latitude, altitude) combined chemistry-climate model, and are driven by climate variables (e.g., rainfall and temperature from observations or a climate model) and by inputs (e.g., soil properties) from a terrestrial ecosystems model or from observations.

	SCOPE 51 - Biogeochemistry of Small Catchments (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		One of the most important subjects of contemporary environmental science is biogeochemistry: the study of complex processes of pools and fluxes of chemical elements and/or molecules within ecosystems governed by both abiotic and biotic forces.
		Although the input of sulfur by precipitation has been monitored in all catchment studies of sulfur biogeochemistry, only the limited number have considered the deposition by dry and cloud deposition, and included this in estimates of the total input to the catchments.
		Recently it has been shown that sulfur dry deposition in areas with no or negligible sulfur retention in the soils may be estimated from the difference between streamwater export and wet deposition input.

	Wiley::The Biogeochemistry of Iron in Seawater
		A link between iron bioavailability and phytoplankton growth in the oceans was first put forward in the 1930s but it was not until the 1980s that developments in clean sampling and analytical techniques had advanced sufficiently to allow accurate measurements of iron at trace levels.
		The 1990s have been dubbed the 'Iron Age of Oceanography', and there is no doubt that the role played by iron in plankton ecology has been the decade's 'hot topic' in marine biogeochemistry.
		The Biogeochemistry of Iron in Seawater will be an invaluable reference for academics and graduate students in marine sciences as well as marine scientists and oceanographers; environmental analytical chemists; and scientists studying the environmental impact of metals and their role in marine ecosystems.

	Problems of Biogeochemistry II (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Problems of Biogeochemistry II Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky (1863-1945), who developed the concept of the biosphere and how man's creativity has changed it into the noosphere.
		One such problem, empirically established by the author in this second issue of Problems of Biogeochemistry, is the fundamental material-energetic distinction of living matter in the biosphere, from all other of the biosphere's natural objects and occurrences; a distinction that admits of no exception.
		In connection with the general questions raised here, the author, in a third issue now in preparation for publication, poses the still more general question of "the states of physical space," which concerns not only biogeochemistry, but all investigations of Nature, and which is inseparably connected with the problems of biogeochemistry.
