《土壤生物學(xué)與生物化學(xué)》發(fā)表具有國(guó)際意義的原創(chuàng)、具有科學(xué)挑戰(zhàn)性的研究論文，描述和解釋土壤中的生物過程。這些包括將這些知識(shí)應(yīng)用于土壤和環(huán)境質(zhì)量問題的可能性，因?yàn)檫@些研究使我們了解到土壤生物學(xué)和生物化學(xué)在調(diào)節(jié)土壤功能、農(nóng)業(yè)可持續(xù)性和生態(tài)系統(tǒng)服務(wù)方面的作用。土壤生物的生態(tài)學(xué)和生化過程、它們對(duì)環(huán)境的影響以及它們與植物的相互作用是主要課題。新分子、微觀和分析技術(shù)在理解和解釋種群和群落動(dòng)態(tài)方面的應(yīng)用具有重要意義。該雜志還發(fā)表了對(duì)當(dāng)代研究的最新評(píng)論，這些評(píng)論提出了重要和新穎的假設(shè)，以及對(duì)土壤中生命的特定和經(jīng)常有爭(zhēng)議的方面的評(píng)論和爭(zhēng)論。范圍土壤生物學(xué)與生物化學(xué)出版具有國(guó)際意義的科學(xué)研究論文，描述和解釋土壤系統(tǒng)中發(fā)生的基本生物學(xué)和生物化學(xué)特征和過程。重點(diǎn)是對(duì)原始研究的實(shí)質(zhì)性推進(jìn)或指導(dǎo)我們對(duì)土壤如何發(fā)揮作用的力學(xué)基礎(chǔ)的理解。如果文章對(duì)土壤生物學(xué)和生物化學(xué)在調(diào)節(jié)土壤功能方面的作用提供了獨(dú)特的見解，就可能涉及將基礎(chǔ)知識(shí)應(yīng)用于應(yīng)用問題。主要題目的例子包括:所有土壤生物(包括病毒)的生態(tài)學(xué)土壤生物學(xué)如何與土壤理化性質(zhì)和過程相互作用，以調(diào)節(jié)地下功能土壤生物群與植物之間的關(guān)系和功能相互作用土壤生物在時(shí)空尺度上對(duì)生態(tài)系統(tǒng)動(dòng)力學(xué)的影響SBB還強(qiáng)調(diào)應(yīng)用分子、微觀和分析技術(shù)以及建模方法來理解、解釋和可視化土壤功能。以技術(shù)為重點(diǎn)的論文必須具有特別高的新穎性或重要性。此外，該雜志出版了最新的評(píng)論，考慮當(dāng)代研究和綜合知識(shí)，以提供更好的理解在土壤系統(tǒng)功能中的生物作用。

Soil Biology & Biochemistry publishes original, scientifically challenging research articles of international significance that describe and explain biological processes occurring in soil. These include the possible applications of such knowledge to issues of soil and environmental quality - insofar as such studies inform our understanding of the role of soil biology and biochemistry in mediating soil functions, agricultural sustainability and ecosystem services. The ecology and biochemical processes of soil organisms, their effects on the environment and their interactions with plants are major topics. The applications of new molecular, microscopic and analytical techniques to understanding and explaining population and community dynamics is of great interest. The journal also publishes state-of-the-art reviews of contemporary research that present significant and novel hypotheses, as well as comments and arguments about specific and often controversial aspects of life in the soil.SCOPEThe scope of Soil Biology & Biochemistry publishes scientific research articles of international significance which describe and explain fundamental biological and biochemical features and processes occurring in soil systems.The emphasis is on original research which substantively advances or directs our understanding of the mechanistic basis of how soils function. Articles may involve applications of basic knowledge to applied issues if they provide distinct insight into the role of soil biology and biochemistry in regulating soil functions. Some examples of major topics include:The ecology of all soil organisms (including viruses)How soil biology interacts with soil physical and chemical properties and processes to regulate belowground functionsRelationships and functional interactions between soil biota and plantsThe effects of soil organisms on ecosystem dynamics across spatial and temporal scalesSBB also emphasizes the application of molecular, microscopic, and analytical techniques and modelling approaches to understand, explain and visualise soil functioning. Technique-focused papers must involve a particularly high degree of novelty or significance.In addition, the journal publishes state-of-the-art reviews that consider contemporary research and synthesise knowledge to provide enhanced understanding of biotic roles in soil system functioning.
