Biogeochemical cycles describe the flow of various elements through Earth’s critical zone. These cycles are interconnected and strongly influenced by water and energy fluxes, including chemical energy preserved in organic compounds, which influence and are influenced by ecological processes and climate shifts. This book provides an overview of the current state of knowledge regarding many aspects of biogeochemical cycles in the context of global change. The book also highlights areas of need for forming collaborations and method development to gain a better understanding of the cause and effect relationships between biogeochemical cycling of elements, climate shifts, human impacts and disturbances, and ecological responses. In addition, it is important to place an emphasis on further investigations of the interconnections between traditionally studied natural ecosystems, frontier ecosystems, and managed (agricultural) systems, because they are all part of global cycles and subjected to global changes that affect the biogeochemical cycling of elements.
Most of the current publications in the area of biogeochemical cycles focus exclusively on carbon and how it is influenced by climate change, as well as feedbacks between climate change and biogeochemical processes linked to the fate of carbon. However, other element cycles are equally affected by climate change and other human activities, even if they do not provide direct feedback to the atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases and therefore climate change. In the past decade, many research groups around the globe invested in further examination of Earth’s critical zone in order to evaluate the effect of the rapidly increasing population and industrialization of developing nations on ecosystems and geochemical cycles. The results showed that Earth undergoes rapid changes in response to human activities and some subsystems are extremely vulnerable to ongoing changes; for example, permafrost, mountain, and desert ecosystems. The warming and drying of these ecosystems causes an increase in carbon release into the atmosphere in the form of CO2 and methane, which provides positive feedback to global warming and triggers changes in other elemental cycles.
This book is organized into three sections, starting with a summary of all biological drivers of weathering and carbon sequestration (Chapter 1), detailed descriptions of plant‐induced rock weathering (Chapter 2) and microbial weathering (Chapter 3), available analytical techniques to study the impact of biological weathering on small‐scales (Chapter 4), and modeling approaches to examine changes in CO2 flux due to respiration as climate changes (Chapter 5). The second section focuses on relationships between structure and function of the critical zone with respect to biogeochemical processes (Chapter 6), on plagioclase weathering and soil formation in ecosystems historically affected by anthropogenic acid deposition (Chapter 7), on molybdenum (Chapter 8) and other trace metal cycling in mountain environments (Chapter 9), and prediction of future changes in the critical zone (Chapter 10). The third section provides some insights into how spatial and temporal variability of vegetation in a changing environment can be quantified (Chapter 11), how permafrost ecosystems respond to changes in climate (Chapter 12), how rock varnish responds to anthropogenic disturbances (Chapter 13), and how natural sources of phosphorus and potassium can improve the sustainability of managed systems (Chapter 14). Lastly, the book summarizes challenges and opportunities of studying the biogeochemical cycles under changing environments (Chapter 15).
This book grew out of the Goldschmidt conference session titled “Ecological Drivers of Biogeochemical Cycles under Changing Environment” held in Yokohama, Japan in 2016. Original research was presented during the conference. However, for the purpose of this book, the editors encouraged the contributors to provide a more inclusive overview and summarize the current state of knowledge in the areas of their expertise.
