No customer reviews yet ISBN 9781682863848

Soil is a major provider of nutrients to crops and undergoes various changes and processes. Soil quality and soil function are important branches of agricultural soil sciences. This book presents interdisciplinary view-points related to varied aspects of soil science such as soil nutrition, soil fertility as well as soil conservation. This book aims to shed light on some of the explored aspects of this field. It attempts to understand the multiple branches that fall under the discipline of soil science and how such concepts have practical applications. The extensive content of this book provides the readers with a thorough understanding of the subject. It will prove extremely helpful for experts in the field of soil ecology, agriculture, horticulture and soil surveying.

Geomorphometry: Concepts, Software, Applications Volume 33
<i>Geomorphometry </i>is the science of quantitative land-surface analysis. It draws upon mathematical, statistical, and image-processing techniques to quantify the shape of earth's topography at various spatial scales. The focus of geomorphometry is the calculation of surface-form measures (land-surface parameters) and features (objects), which may be used to improve the mapping and modelling of landforms to assist in the evaluation of soils, vegetation, land use, natural hazards, and other information. <p/>This book provides a practical guide to preparing Digital Elevation Models (DEM) for analysis and extracting land-surface parameters and objects from DEMs through a variety of software. It further offers detailed instructions on applying parameters and objects in soil, agricultural, environmental and earth sciences. This is a manual of state-of-the-art methods to serve the various researchers who use geomorphometry. <p/>Soil scientists will use this book to further learn the methods for classifying and measuring the chemical, biological, and fertility properties of soils and gain a further understaing of the role of soil as a natural resource. Geologists will find value in the instruction this book provides for measuring the physical features of the soil such as elevation, porosity, and structure which geologists use to predict natural disasters such as earthquakes, volcanoes, and flooding.
