Abstract

Microbiology
Studies of the microbiology of the soil recognise at least four levels of complexity in the forms of profiles, horizons, aggregates, and colloids. These four levels represent increasing degrees of difficulty with regard to their examination, and reliable experimental data are scarce especially with respect to the soil aggregate and the soil colloid environment. These poorly-understood environments have dimensions measured in millimetres, micrometres, and nanometres and are discussed in this chapter.
