It describes the advantages of modern sequencing technologies, such as DNA extraction, PCR, and shotgun sequencing, in analyzing complex microbial ecosystems. Examples from diverse environments like the Sargasso Sea and human colon demonstrate how metagenomics uncovers previously unknown microbial diversity and functions.

The collection reviews the different levels of biodiversity, or the ‘biodiversity hierarchy’ including: genetic and phenotypic diversity; population diversity; species diversity; community diversity; ecosystem diversity; landscape diversity; and historical and ecological biogeographic diversity.

Terrestrial biomes are based on land, while aquatic biomes include both ocean and freshwater biomes. The eight major terrestrial biomes on Earth are each distinguished by characteristic temperatures and amount of precipitation. Comparing the annual totals of precipitation and fluctuations in precipitation from one biome to another provides clues as to the importance of abiotic factors in the distribution of biomes
