From the Chapman & Hall Microbiology Series this unique resource offers
specific experimental and practical applications of mathematical
modeling in microbial ecology. The text presents a variety of systems,
ranging from subcellular systems to ecosystems, and shows how to test
whether the models provide a good representation of the system. The book
also encourages further development and application of modeling to
burgeoning problems associated with microbial ecology, such as the
pollution and destruction of pesticides and herbicides.
