PREFACE

The Working Group M.O. (Interactions of soil minerals with organic components and microorganisms) (WGMO) of the International Soil Science Society (ISSS) was founded in 1990 at the 14th World Congress of Soil Science (Kyoto, Japan), with Professor P.M. Huang being the Chairman. Since then, the Working Group M.O. has served as a forum to bring together soil chemists, soil mineralogists, soil microbiologists, soil biochemists, soil physi­cists and environmental, ecological, and health scientists.

The objective of the Working Group M.O. is to promote research, teaching, and also the exchange of technology concerning the knowledge and the impact of the interactions between minerals-organics and microorganisms on environmental quality, agricultural sustainability, and ecosystem "health".

This group is first a scientific group as defined just previously, but it also intends to develop exchange and transfer between scientists and engineers.

The first International Meeting organized by Professor P. M. Huang, was held in Edmonton, Canada, in August 1992, where 87 papers were presented by scientists from 20 countries. Following this meeting, a two volume book was edited by P. M. Huang, J. Berthelin, J.-M. Bollag, W. B. McGill, and A. L. Page, entitled "Environmental impact of soil component interaction" : Volume I "Natural and anthropogenic organic-volume II "Metals, other inorganic and microbial activities", and published by c.R.C. Lewis Pub­lishers (1995).

Specialized and shorter co-sponsored meetings were held in Mexico (in 1994) at the 15th World Congress of Soil Science (Symposium entitled "Interactions of soil compo­nents, agricultural ecosystems and health issues") and in St. Louis (MO, USA), in the 1995 SSSA National Meeting (workshop entitled "Soil chemistry and Ecosystems Health", SSSA special publication number 52, 1998).

The second International Meeting "ISMOM96" was held in Nancy, France, Septem­ber 1996. It was devoted to the knowledge and application of the effect of Mineral-Organic­Microorganism Interactions on Soil and Freshwater Environments. During this symposium, 6 lectures, 48 oral communications and 60 posters (116 presentations) were presented in five topics from participants of 25 countries.

After this second International Symposium "ISMOM96", manuscripts were submit­ted for review and forty were accepted to produce this volume presenting the main topics of the conference and providing also a common framework for the Working Group M.O.

The . symposium and this volume have been organized with the help of different institutions, organizations, companies and members of the Centre de Pedologie Biologique. We are grateful to the authors who have contributed to this publication and to the external referees who have provided critical inputs to maintain the quality of this book.

INTRODUCTION AND SCIENTIFIC PRESENTATION OF THE VOLUME

Major and trace elements, organo-mineral, and organic compounds of different origins, undergo continual transformation and cycling within the terrestrial environments, partic­ularly in the soil, freshwater and ocean compartments. In the soils, at the interfaces between atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, and biosphere, these transformations, evolutions and cycling depend on the dependence of interactions between minerals-organics and micro­organisms that control and influence directly or indirectly their chemical, biological, and physical properties and also their functioning and qUality.

In fact, soils can be considered as complex multiphasic interactive biogeochemical reactors, reservoirs of microorganisms and major compartment of terrestrial ecosystems under the influence of antbropic activities.

To improve our knowledge and management of the different soil functions, e.g. cycling of elements, cycling and quality of water, air quality, support of plant growth and plant production, support of human activities, waste deposits, etc., it appears necessary to en­hance the information and understanding of the interactions of soil minerals with organic components and microorganisms.

More often, such information is dispersed because studies are mainly performed under one's own field of interest and/or discipline. This is the reason why the Working Group M.O., that develops studies of the interactions between minerals, organic components and microorganisms in soils," was founded to promote research, teaching and technology in these interdisciplinary fields.

The present volume arose from the Nancy Meeting "ISMOM96" and is devoted to the theme "Effect of Mineral-Organic-Microorganism Interactions on Soil and Freshwater Environments" and includes five main topics:

• Reactivity and Transformations of Mineral Constituents and Metals at the soil­solution interfaces

• Nature, Dynamics and Transformations of Organic Compounds and Enzymes in Soils

• Microorganism-Colloid Interactions and their Effect on Bioavailability of Pollutants and Nutrients in Terrestrial and Freshwater Environments

• Effect of Microorganism-Colloid-Soil Interactions on Dynamics and Activity of Microbial Communities and Populations

• Integration of Mineral-Organic-Microorganism Interactions in the Evaluation of Soil and Freshwater Quality

These topics consider different aspects of the environmental behavior and fate of natural and anthropogenic organic and inorganic compounds in different soil systems and

Xl

soil-surface water systems under the control of biotic and abiotic processes and parameters involved.

In this book, overlap of processes, constituents, etc., between the different topics underline the occurrence, importance, and interest of such interactions. In the near future such interactive phenomena will have to be much more defined to propose criteria for soil quality and for soil environmental functions that are needed to help the management of the whole terrestrial ecosystem.
