植物育种哲学博士-土壤化学与肥力

土壤化学是土壤科学的一门学科，涉及土壤中的生物地球化学过程及其对地球环境中植物必需元素和污染物的生物利用度，迁移率，分布和化学形式的影响。传统的土壤化学（土壤肥力）侧重于土壤中的化学和生化反应，这些反应会影响植物生长所需的养分，以及与无机和有机施肥（尤其是氮和磷）相关的潜在环境后果。在过去的几十年中，土壤化学越来越关注环境，特别是与地下水和地表水的质量有关。了解土壤中潜在污染物和污染物的反应和生物地球化学过程，将能够更准确地预测污染物的命运和毒性，并制定补救策略。土壤化学/肥力研究的总体目标是对土壤中与植
Soil chemistry is a discipline of soil science concerned with biogeochemical processes in soils and their influence on the bioavailability, mobility, distribution, and chemical forms of both plant essential elements and contaminants in the terrestrial environment. Traditional soil chemistry (soil fertility) focuses on chemical and biochemical reactions in soils that influence nutrient availability for plant growth, and potential environmental consequences associated with inorganic and organic fertilization, especially with nitrogen and phosphorus. Soil chemistry has increasingly focused on the environment over the past few decades, especially as related to ground and surface water quality. Understanding the reactions and biogeochemical processes of potential pollutants and contaminants in soils will enable a more accurate prediction of fate and toxicity of contaminants, and development of remediation strategies. The overall goal of soil chemistry/fertility research is a more fundamental understanding of chemical and biochemical reactions in soils related to plant growth, sustainability, and soil and environmental quality.
