<p><b>Comprehensive overview of the process dynamics and interactions governing ecohydrological interfaces</b> <p>Summarizing the interdisciplinary investigation of ecohydrological interface functioning, <i>Ecohydrological Interfaces</i> advances the understanding of their dynamics across traditional subject boundaries. It offers a detailed explanation of the underlying mechanisms and process interactions governing ecohydrological interface functioning from the micro scale to the ecosystem and regional scale. <p>The multidisciplinary team of authors integrates and synthesises the current understanding of process dynamics at different ecohydrological interfaces to develop a unifying concept of their ecosystem functions. The work introduces novel experimental and model-based methods for characterizing and quantifying ecohydrological interface processes, taking account of innovative sensing and tracing technologies as well as microbial and molecular biology approaches. <p>Key questions addressed in the book include: <ul><li>Which conditions stimulate the transformative nature of ecohydrological interfaces?</li> <li>How are ecohydrological interfaces organized in space and time?</li> <li>How does interface activity propagate from small to large scales?</li> <li>How do ecohydrological interfaces react to environmental change and what is their role in processes of significant societal value?</li></ul> <p>As a research level text on the functionality and performance of ecohydrological interfaces, <i>Ecohydrological Interfaces</i> is primarily aimed at academics and postgraduate researchers. It is also appropriate for university libraries as further reading on a range of geographical, environmental, biological, and engineering topics.
