Presents the results of the symposium of the Scientific Committee on Problems of the Environment (SCOPE). Examines the biogeochemistry of the globe from a holistic point of view, considering the alteration of global cycles and the distortion of cycles by human activities. Focuses on the flux and reservoir amounts of individual substances such as carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, sulfur and water.
