It covers both the initial stages associated with the improvement of physicochemical and biological substrate characteristics as a precondition for continuous vegetation, as well as the subsequent re-establishment of rich communities of plant species and how these communities may be optimized for their biodiversity and ecosystem services such as pedogenesis, nutrient cycling, habitation for other organisms, food plants for herbivores, carbon sequestration, and aesthetic value.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCase studies of successful restoration of industrial sites from Asia, Africa, North and South America, and Europe, which include coal and mineral mining sites, oil drilling sites, and dumpsites, complement the conceptual part of the text and demonstrate how to put the theory into practice. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten by an experienced researcher in the field, \u003ci\u003eBiodiversity and Ecosystem Services on Post-Industrial Land\u003c\/i\u003e includes information on: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Mining sustainability in arid zones, aromatic plants for phytoremediation, and spontaneous flora growth on metalliferous sites\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Resilience of plant diversity, ecosystem services from rehabilitated waste dumpsites, and plantation forestry for eco-restoration\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Soil biodiversity and plant-microbe interactions, afforestation of former asbestos mines, and bauxite mine restoration and management\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Role of the local government in re-use of sites, restoration of wetlands in oil and gas exploration areas, and carbon sequestration in revegetated coal mine soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eBiodiversity and Ecosystem Services on Post-Industrial Land \u003c\/i\u003eis an essential guide for environmental managers, scientists, ecologists, and engineers tasked with restoring post-industrial sites, managers in mining, oil, gas, and other heavy industries, and NGOs involved in sustainable land use.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47988815233253,"sku":"NP9781394187386","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9781394187386.jpg?v=1761781698","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/biodiversity-and-ecosystem-services-on-post-industrial-land-isbn-9781394187386","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
