Soils of the World, Hardback Book

Soils of the World Hardback

Hardback

Description

This book describes and comprehensively illustrates the soils of the world in accordance with the worldwide WRB classification.

The structure of the book follows the ecozone concept.

For every ecozone, location, climate and vegetation as well as soil formation and distribution are presented.

All soils representative of the corresponding ecozone are then described in detail: definition, properties, distribution, use, classification, genesis.

Over 260 photographs illustrate soil profiles, soil details and landscapes.

Instructive maps and graphs help understand soil properties and soil-forming processes and make the publication an excellent reference book about the world's soils.
