Biogeochemistry: An Analysis of Global Change, 3rd Edition

This book is a clear and thorough read. It contains many great case examples, and I didn't find myself confused at any part reading through it. That being said, the appendix is atrocious. You're better off just perusing the chapter that may contain a particular concept than checking the appendix. The problem sets are a bit confusing and unclear. It can be difficult to know what the authors are asking, and the methods to calculate the answers are often not explicit.

Not that there are a lot of alternatives, but this is really the best book on the topic and the update was long overdue. It is tedious to read, but incredibly rich in detail and brilliantly organized. It is very comprehensive. It is a textbook/reference, so one should not expect it to be easy reading. I would rank this close to the top among the hundreds and hundreds of textbooks/references I have read or used in my 20 years. I rarely give 5 stars to a book, but this really is brilliant.

Best available biogeochemistry text book. This has been a useful teaching resource for undergraduate and graduate classes.

I read the second edition as an undergraduate, and then picked this up to prep for my comprehensive PhD exams. I read it cover to cover in three weeks and found it immensely helpful. It's been meticulously updated and reorganized, and it's beautifully written. Straightforward and clearly written.

I used this book in an undergraduate course and found it a hard read. It is full of information and the authors go a good a job explaining things thoroughly.

An absolute standard in Biogeochemistry. The price goes up and down on this product, so it's wise to use a price watch to catch it at the best time.No Environmental Science student should be caught without a copy of this.

There are definitely some errata, and also, in the Kindle edition, most of the formulae have odd small formatting and are difficult to read.

This is a very informative text that is applicable to a variety of fields. The authors do an excellent job of bringing together data from a myriad of sources to build a compelling case for fundamental linkages between the biosphere and abiotic processes on the planet.

great book.

This book is one of the best books I've ever bought. Easy to understand, full of informations and references to better analyze some topics. Really recommended.

High Quality and well delivered.Content of the book is also satisfied. It is a great start to learn this field.

Perfect
