Books in the Progress in Soil Science series

This book introduces what sclerotia grains are, and where and how they exist in soils, by compiling the results obtained from the studies on fungal sclerotia formed by Cenococcum geophilum (Cg) and related species, the visible black small grains persistent for a few thousand to ten thousands of years in forest soils and sediments.

This book is a state-of-the-art review of the physical, chemical and mineralogical properties of anthropogenic soils, their genesis morphology and classification, geocultural setting, and strategies for reclamation, revitalization, use and management.

This book reviews the latest in geographically referenced soil databases, exploring strategies for bridging research, production, and environmental uses of digital soil mapping. Includes examples from North and South America, Europe, Asia, and Australia.

Proximal Soil Sensing presents a comprehensive account of data acquisition using proximal soil sensors. The text discusses high resolution digital soil mapping, which uses optical, geophysical, electrochemical, mathematical and statistical methods to collect information on soil.
