The Lecture Notes in Earth System Science (LNESS) series reports on new
developments in research and teaching in the entire field of earth system science:
from the focused study of phenomena on the nano and micro-scales to the entire
earthsystemincludingitsearlyformation,evolutionandfuturestatus.Theseriesis
thoroughly interdisciplinary presenting studies of the litho-, atmo-, hydro- and
biospheres and humanities interactions with them. The series publishes: mono-
graphs onadvanced topics, technicalreportsofhigh qualityandbroad interestand
reports of workshops, expeditions and surveys, provided they are of exceptional
interest and focused on a single topic. As the name implies, the submission of
manuscriptsbasedonadvancedcoursessuchascollectionsoflecturesandtutorials,
course materials for laboratory and field courses and summer schools is highly
encouraged. The Lecture Notes in Earth System Science (LNESS) is now also the
home of Springer Earth Sciences Open Access proceedings. Conference proceed-
ings published in the series are free to read online under the Creative Commons

Preface
ThebookrepresentsacollectionofpaperspresentedatVIInternationalSymposium
“Biogenic-abiogenicinteractionsinnaturalandanthropogenicsystems”whichwas
devoted to the 150th anniversary of the St. Petersburg Society of Naturalists.
Symposium was held onSeptember 24–27,2018, inSaint Petersburg,Russia. The
previous symposiums on this topic took place in St. Petersburg in 2002, 2004,
2007, 2011, and 2014.
St.PetersburgSocietyofNaturalistsisoneoftheoldestnaturalsciencesocieties
of Russia. It was founded in 1868. The first president of Society Karl Kessler was
therectorofSt.PetersburgStateUniversity.PresidentsoftheSt.PetersburgSociety
of Naturalists were such famous scientists as Prof. Beketov, Academician
Vernadsky, Academician Ukhtomsky, and others. The priorities of the society in
our days are complex interdisciplinary study in the different fields of earth science
and life science.
Accordingtotheresultsoftheprevioussymposium,amonographwaspublished
in 2016 by Springer. The present book continues to discuss wide range of issues
connecting with biogenic and abiogenic interactions in lithosphere, biosphere, and
technosphere.Itdevotedtotheprocessesandphenomenaontheboundarybetween
biogenic and abiogenic nature. The book has an interdisciplinary character and
contains eight parts:
1. Biomineralization and Nature-like Materials and Technologies
2. Methods for Studying the Interactions in Biogenic–Abiogenic Systems
3. Geochemistry of Biogenic–Abiogenic Systems
4. Biomineral Interactions in Soil
5. Effect of Microorganisms on Natural and Artificial Materials
6. Organic Mineralogy
7. Medical Geology
8. Philosophical and Historical Aspects
In part “Biomineralization and Nature-like Materials and Technologies,” two
reviews are devoted to collagen-based biomaterials for tissue engineering appli-
cations(Radhakrishnanetal.)andchitosanandchitosan-basednanocompositesfor

applicationsasadrugdeliverycarrier(Nivethaaetal.).Theresultsofthefollowing
experimental studies are presented: on the formation of calcium and magnesium
phosphates of the renal stones depending on the composition of the crystallization
medium (Kuz’mina et al.), on the solubility of hydroxyapatite as a function of
solutioncomposition(Kuranovetal.),onthepathogenicphaseformationinhuman
blood plasma (Golovanova), on the features of molecular water in bone apatite
(Kalinichenko et al.), and on the effect of heat treatment and bioresorbability of
silicate containing biological apatites (Panova, Golovanova).
The part “Methods for Studying the Interactions in Biogenic–Abiogenic
Systems” focuses on a variety of methods and approaches used in studying such
systems. The following topics are regarded: tool supply and application examples
of singlet oxygen monitoring in the lower atmosphere (Chelibanov et al.), deter-
mination of water-soluble fraction in soils (Panova et al.), using of X-RAY com-
puted microtomography in the study of hard tooth tissue (Pixur et al.), and
experimental–theoretical evaluation of the biogenic peat system affecting moisture
transfer (Kremcheev et al.). Special attention is paid to methods of research of the
role of microorganisms in different processes: oil biodegradation (Svarovskaya
et al.), stromatolites formation (Litvinova), and change in wettability of clays
(Sofinskaya et al.).
Geochemical aspects of biogenic–abiogenic interactions have been discussed in
the part “Geochemistry of Biogenic–Abiogenic Systems.” The result of the
experiment with using biochar for neutralizing wastewater olive plant was con-
sidered by Obiageli et al. M. Charykova and V. Krivovichev show data on ther-
modynamic stability of arsenic minerals in the environment. L. Inisheva and
co-authors consider biogenic and abiogenic forms of migration compounds in
swamps of different genesis. The work of S. Lebedev et al. is connected with
assessmentoflong-livedradionuclides(3H,14C)andheavymetalsinsnowcoverof
urbanareas.TheworkofD.Rybakovisdevotedtobiogeochemistryofsoilsinthe
industrial pollution zone in Petrozavodsk. The special attention is given to bio-
geochemical processes in plain forest ecosystem (Torbatov et al.).
Inpart“BiomineralInteractionsinSoil,”differentaspectsofbiogenic–abiogenic
interactions have shown based on soil studies. The result of the experiment with
pine-derivedbiochar,whichhasattractedasapossiblewaytosequestercarbonfrom
theatmosphereinthesoil,illustratedthatthebiocharlayersformedpreferredzones
for root development and microbial proliferation compared to the sandy layers
(Olivieretal.).Thespecificityofsoilorganicmatterwasrevealedbasedonstudyof
phylogenetic structure of prokaryotic community in the forest and urban soils
(Aparinetal.)andhumicsubstancesformationandstabilizationinsuspendedsoils
of tropical forest (Rodina et al.). The micromorphology study of biotic–abiotic
interactions was focused on soils affected by waste mining and processing pro-
duction of sulfide-tungsten deposits, which lead to soil contamination by toxic
elements(Doroshkevichetal.),andsoilsintheAntarcticregiontorevealthespecific

Antarctica (Lupachev et al., Shamilishvili et al.). These findings are corrected the
most acceptable scenario of abiotic physical processes development in the cold
environments.
In part “Effect of Microorganisms on Natural and Artificial Materials,” the
differentaspectsofmicrobialinfluenceondifferentsubstratesarediscussed.Special
attentionispaidtotheproblemofbiologicaldamageofculturalheritageobjectsin
variousecologicalconditions(Lobzovaetal.,Vlasovetal.).Intheseworks,therole
of microorganisms in the transformation of natural stone is shown. The role of
microorganisms is also considered in the corrosion processes of other materials
(Simakova and Leonova). Particular attention is given to study of microbial com-
munities on the different museum objects (Zaitsev et al., Abramova). The authors
note the ability of biodestructors to influence on people’s health. Soil microor-
ganismsareconsideredinthecontextofbiogenic–abiogenicinteractions.Theycan
develop under various conditions, including technogenic pollution (Redkina et al.)
and exposure to VUV radiation (Zvereva and Kirtsideli). Among the experimental
worksofthispart,itisnecessarytonotethestudyoftheprocessesofcrystallization
ofcalciumoxalatehydratesbyinteractionofapatitesandfossilizestoothtissuewith
fungus of Aspergillus niger (Zelenskaya et al.).
In part “Organic Mineralogy,” the structure, symmetry, formation, and trans-
formation of organic matter in nature are discussed. The following topics are
regarded:thegeneralityoforganicandinorganic(Oleynikovaetal.);limitsofsolid
solutions and polymorph diversity of acids with chiral molecules (Kotelnikova
et al.); geometry, classification, and nomenclature of capsids of viruses
(Voytekhovsky); calcium ion complexes with amino acids in human body
(Tomashevskiy et al.); paleobiological significance of carbon isotope ratios in the
hard tissues of conodont elements (Zhuravlev et al.).
Different aspects of biogenic–abiogenic interactions in human body have been
discussed in the part “Medical Geology.” The common properties of some geo-
phagic clay based on their mineral composition and landscapes specificity were
studied(Ekosseetal.).Theaccumulationofheavymetalsinhair,dependingonthe
state of the environment of different territories of Kola North (Belisheva) and
Bashkortostan(Semenovaetal.)areconsidered.Thepossibilityofphysicochemical
modeling in the study of affecting of chemical composition of water on the health
of the population is analyzed (Mazukhina et al.; Masloboev et al.).
In part “Philosophical and Historical Aspects,” thetime and space of biological
morphogenesis are regarded as phenomena arising from the flow of energy in the
Universe and their own structure set by this process (Sumin and Sumina). The
environmental problems are regarded in a historical retrospect. The impact of
geodynamic processes on the emergence and evolution on the man is discussed
(Nesterov et al.).
