Most popular at the top

  • Soils and Environmentby Steve Ellis; Tony Mellor

    Routledge 1995; US$ 65.95

    Analyses the properties, processes and classification of soils, their environmental history, soil-human interactions and the future. A broad and balanced book covering a wide spectrum of environmentally-related subjects. more...

  • Environmental Soil-Landscape Modelingby Sabine Grunwald

    CRC Press 2005; US$ 139.95

    Earth scientists and researchers in information technology survey recent methodological developing in modeling soil-landscapes, providing a cross-section of measurement tools computer-related and pedometric techniques for such modeling, and its history. Among their topics are what is really known about the space-time continuum of soil-landscapes, g more...

  • Crop-Soil Simulation Modelsby R.B. Matthews; W. Stephens

    CAB International 2002; US$ 125.00

    The use of crop-soil modelling has so far been mainly confined to the research community. Practical applications have occurred in the areas of decision tools for irrigation studies and pest management. However, there is potential to increase its applied use. This book reviews progress. more...

  • Trees, Crops and Soil Fertilityby G. Schroth; F.L. Sinclair

    CAB International 2002; US$ 145.00

    Successful agroforestry requires an understanding of the complex relationship between trees, crops and soils. This book provides a review of both social and biophysical aspects of soil use and research in agroforestry in the tropics, with an emphasis on nutrient-poor forest and savanna soils. more...

  • Below-ground Interactions in Tropical Agroecosystemsby M. van Noordwijk; G. Cadisch; C.K. Ong

    CAB International 2004; US$ 155.00

    This book provides a synthesis of plant-soil interactions in agroforestry, intercropping and grass-legume interactions. It focuses on the process level, which is relevant to many types of multi-species agro-ecosystems. It also links basic research to practical applications in a wide range of systems with or without trees, and considers effects of global change on below-ground interactions. more...

  • Soils on a Warmer Earthby H.W. Scharpenseel; M. Schomaker; A. Ayoub

    Elsevier 1990; US$ 270.00

    The theme of this book is a far reaching one and should attract great interest, both in industrialized as well as in less developed countries. Although the question of climate change and its effects on soil productivity is overshadowed by so many current events, it is almost certain that this subject will remain on the international agenda for the years to come; not only as science and research are concerned but also in relation to development policies, agricultural policies and others, especially since poor, rich, developed and developing countries are equally threatened by these problems. more...

  • Solute Movement in the Rhizosphereby P. B. Tinker; P. H. Nye

    Oxford University Press, USA 2000; US$ 95.00

    Main Symbols. 1. Introduction. 2. Soil and Plant Water. 3. Solute Interchange between Solid, Liquid, and Gas Phases in the Soil. 4. Local Movement of Solutes in Soil. 5. The Uptake Properties of the Root System. 6. Solute Transport in the Soil near Root Surfaces. 7. Chemical and Physical Modification of the Rhizosphere. 8. Microbiological Modification of the Rhizosphere. 9. Root System Architecture, Density, and Measurement. 10. The Mineral Nutrition of Single Plants in Soil. 11. Solute Transport and Crop Growth Models in the Field. References. Index more...

  • Soils, Plants and Clay Mineralsby Velde Pierre

    Springer 2010; US$ 129.00

    This book treats the inter-relations between plants and minerals in an entirely new way in that it introduces the notion of eco-engineering: i.e. the manipulation of the mineral world by the living world to the ends of the living world. These inter-relations are the basis for traditional agriculture and should be the basis for the new, ecologically oriented land management disciplines, including agriculture itself. These relations also impact surface geochemistry and determine pollution problems. An understanding of this concept will lead to a renewed consideration of surface environmental problems. more...

  • Soil in the Environmentby Daniel Hillel

    Elsevier Science 2007; US$ 83.95

    INSTRUCTORS , interested in requesting a review copy? Register at http://textbooks.elsevier.com today! Key for every course in soil science, earth science, and environmental disciplines, this textbook engages students to critically look at soil as the central link in the function and creation of the terrestrial environment. For the first time, Dr. Hillel brilliantly discusses soils as a natural body that is engaged in dynamic interaction with the atmosphere above and the strata below that influences the planet's climate and hydrological cycle, and serves as the primary habitat for a versatile community of living organisms. Soil in the Environment offers a larger perspective of soil?s impact on the environment by organizing chapters among... more...
