Описание: Soil is one of the many natural resources present in abundance and variety. Soil science deals with the structure, composition, mapping and classification of soils all over the globe. The environmentalists and soil scientists are trying hard to preserve the quality of soils and arable lands. This book provides an extensive analysis on a wide array of topics such as nutrient management, water management, wetlands, sensitive and unstable soils, manure, contamination and soil conservation, etc. This book is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the theory and practice of soil science. A number of latest researches have been included to keep the readers up-to-date with the global concepts in this area of study. It will serve as a reference guide for soil scientists, geologists, environmentalists, ecologists, researchers, professionals and students involved with the field of soil science at various levels.

Описание: Soil Mechanics: Calculations, Principles, and Methods provides expert insights into the nature of soil mechanics through the use of calculation and problem-solving techniques. This informed reference begins with basic principles and calculations, illustrating physical meanings of the unit weight of soil, specific gravity, water content, void ratio, porosity, saturation, and their typical values. This is followed by calculations that illustrate the need for soil identification, classification, and ways to obtain soil particle size distribution, including sizes smaller than 0.075mm, performance, and the use of liquid and plastic limit tests. The book goes on to provide expert coverage regarding the use of soil identification and classification systems (both Unified Soil Classification System and AASHTO), and also includes applications concerning soil compaction and field applications, hydraulic conductivity and seepage, soil compressibility and field application, and shear strength and field application.

Описание: First published in 1953, this book provides an account regarding field drainage for those involved in the organisation and supervision of the drainage process. It was written to draw attention `to the fundamentals of the subject, to portray a philosophy of draining, and to deal with the factors involved and the way in which they influence events in the soil`.

Описание: The branch of science that studies the chemical characteristics of soil is known as soil chemistry. It is affected by mineral composition and environmental factors. Soil chemistry also helps in understanding the contaminants that are present in soil. As this field is emerging at a rapid pace, the contents of this book will help the readers understand the modern concepts and applications of the subject. This book discusses the fundamentals as well as modern approaches of soil chemistry. Coherent flow of topics, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make this book an invaluable source of knowledge.

Описание: Soil mechanics studies the behavior and attributes of soil. The subject of soil mechanics helps in developing an understanding of buildings or structures that are supported by soil. The strength of the soil can be measured by the friction and aggregation found in it. It plays a crucial role in geotechnical engineering. For all those who are interested in soil mechanics, this book can prove to be an essential guide. Constant effort has been made to make the understanding of the concepts of soil mechanics as easy and informative as possible, for the readers.

Описание: The weathering of the parent material by water determines, to a large extent, the chemical composition of the soil which has ultimately been produced. Some chemicals are leached into the lower soil layers where they accumulate. Other chemicals, more insoluble, are left in the upper layers of the soil. The most rapid removed chemicals are chlorides and sulphates, followed by calcium, sodium, magnesium and potassium. The silicates and oxides of iron and aluminium decompose very slowly and are rarely leached. When some of these products come into contact with the air in the soil, chemical reactions occur, such as oxidation in particular, which results in the formation of chemicals either more soluble or more fragile than the original ones. This results in an acceleration of the weathering processes, increased leaching* of chemicals, and further changes in the soil chemical composition. A freshwater acid sulphate soil may develop when the waterlogged soil containing iron sulphurs (pyrites) is exposed to the air, for example, when constructing ponds.

Описание: Although the food industry is beginning to make headway with its sustainability initiatives, substantially more progress is needed in order to feed the world s growing population sustainably. The challenge is that the topic of sustainability can seem overwhelming and there is limited information that is specific to the food industry.
