Books and Book Chapters

  • Water Ecosystem Services - A Global Perspective [1]
    This book, jointly edited by, and featuring contributions from, a number of SNC staff describes how ecosystem services-based approaches can assist in addressing major global and regional water challenges, such as climate change, biodiversity loss, and water security in the developing world, by integrating scientific knowledge from different disciplines, such as hydrological modelling, environmental economics, psychology and international law. Available in March 2015.
  • Targeting Sustainable Provision of Forest Ecosystem Services with Special Focus on Carbon Sequestration [2]
    Book Chapter in Climate Change, Air Pollution and Global Challenges: Understanding and Perspectives from Forest Research which looks at how a move away from managing forests to maximise production of wood towards broader objectives using an ecosystem approach has affected provision of ecosystem services.
  • Benefits of breeding crops for yield response to soil organisms [3]
    Book Chapter in Molecular Microbial Ecology of the Rhizosphere which focusses on understanding of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal fungi response traits in major crop species in terms of linkage between function and community parameters.
  • UNEP 2012 yearbook [4]
    Chapter 2 of the yearbook describes how increasing/maintaining stocks of soil carbon helps management of soils for multiple economic, societal and environmental benefits.
  • Soils of the Crofts [5]
    A handbook aimed at school children giving information about the types and properties of soils found throughout the areas where crofting still takes place in Scotland (the north and north west of the country). This book can be viewed in your browser by clicking the link above.
