Description
Explores soil as a nexus for water, chemicals, and biologically coupled nutrient cycling Soil is a narrow but critically important zone on Earth's surface.
It is the interface for water and carbon recycling from above and part of the cycling of sediment and rock from below. Hydrogeology, Chemical Weathering, and Soil Formation places chemical weathering and soil formation in its geological, climatological, biological and hydrological perspective. Volume highlights include: The evolution of soils over 3.25 billion yearsBasic processes contributing to soil formationHow chemical weathering and soil formation relate to water and energy fluxesThe role of pedogenesis in geomorphologyRelationships between climate soils and biotaSoils, aeolian deposits, and crusts as geologic dating toolsImpacts of land-use change on soils The American Geophysical Union promotes discovery in Earth and space science for the benefit of humanity.
Its publications disseminate scientific knowledge and provide resources for researchers, students, and professionals. Find out more about this book from this Q&A with the Editors
