Soil microbial biomass and organic matter dynamics in metal-contaminated soils

A main aim of this thesis was to compare and evaluate different microbiological methods (total biomass or microbial activity) to detect effects of heavy metals on the functioning of the soil ecosystem. The biomass methods, which included biomass C, biomass ninhydrin-N, biomass N, ATP, substrate indu...
