Soil Chemistry

Beschreibung

Comprehensive, up-to-date coverage of the basics of soilchemistry Although only a meter in depth over the earth's surface, soil iskey to sustaining life-affecting air and water quality, the growthof plants and crops, and the health of the entire planet. Thecomplex interplay among organic and inorganic solids, air, water,microorganisms, and plant roots in soil is the subject of SoilChemistry, a reference pivotal to understanding soilprocesses and problems. Thoroughly reorganized for ease of use, this updated ThirdEdition of Soil Chemistry summarizes the importantresearch and fundamental knowledge in the field in a single,readily usable text, including: * Soil-ion interactions * Biogeological cycles and pollution * Water and soil solutions * Oxidation and reduction * Inorganic solid phase and organic matter in soil * Weathering and soil development * Cation retention (exchange) * Anion and molecular retention * Acid and salt-affected soils New to the Third Edition is an enhanced emphasis on soilsolution chemistry and expanded coverage of phosphate chemistry andthe chemical principles of the aqueous phase. At the same time, thebook has retained the clear examination of the fundamentals of thescience of soil that has distinguished earlier editions. Completewith SI units and end-of-chapter study questions, Soil Chemistry isan excellent introductory resource for students studying thiscrucial topic.
