The Mediterranean Sea
The Mediterranean Sea has experienced significant alterations due to natural processes, but human activities have accelerated these changes. Rising sea levels, pollution, and loss of biodiversity threaten this vital ecosystem, requiring urgent global efforts.
Human activities have massively accelerated the nitrogen cycle, causing eutrophication, smog, acid rain, and the emission of potent greenhouse gases. This book reviews the biotransformation of nitrogen, its ecological significance, and the consequences of human interference.
