Описание: Sedimentology refers to the study of different sediments present on planet Earth. This study includes the examination of clay, silt and sand so as to get information regarding the erosion process, lithification, deposition, weathering and diagenesis, etc. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the fundamental concepts in the field of sedimentology. It includes a detailed explanation of the various methods and techniques of this subject. For all those who are interested in this area, the text can prove to be an essential guide. 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 field.

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: 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: Grounded! Amazing Classroom Demonstrations in Soil Mechanics presents 35 serious but entertaining experiments that teach the fundamentals of soil mechanics to budding scientists and engineering students in an exciting and novel way. In this sequel to the popular Soils Magic, Elton has assembled a wealth of fascinating new experiments to illustrate the dynamics of how soils behave and how they can be manipulated.Topics include: slaking, pile capacity, swelling clays, shear and compression, effective stress, capillary tension and flow, soil arching, tensile and compressive strength, soil identification, piping, liquefaction, relative density, soil filters, settlement rates, and many more.Each demonstration includes easy-to-follow directions, illustrations, and an explanation of the engineering significance or application of the principle demonstrated. Videos of many experiments are also available.An exciting tool for high-school and college instructors, the inexpensive and simple experiments in this book make soil mechanics fun to learn and are fascinating to even the casual science enthusiast.

Описание: There is a great variety in their physical, chemical and biological properties, but they can be made to yield a good crop by adopting proper management practices and soil and water conservation measures, applying organic manures and chemical fertilizers and supplementing monsoon rain with irrigation water. But there are some extreme soil conditions which do not provide a suitable medium for the growth of plants and desirable microorganisms. Such soils are either too acidic or alkaline and special measures have to be adopted to bring them in proper condition before any crop can be raised on them satisfactory and economically. In high rainfall areas, acidic soils are formed due to leaching of bases or salts. In arid regions where rainfall is low and temperature high, soils become saline or alkaline due to alkaline due to accumulation of salts in the surface soil. Micro-organisms decompose organic matter in the soil and organic acids are continuously being formed. If these acids are not neutralized by free lime or bases to make the soil acidic.
