Advances in Soil Science 17

The degradation of soil through the action of man, such as in agriculture, chemical pollution and mining, and through natural systems of erosion and volcanic activity, is of serious concern throughout the world. This book examines both the mechanisms of soil degradation and the methods by which this soil can be restored to its original condition. Soil scientists, agronomists, and environmental scientists involved in the practice of soil restoration will find this book to be an invaluable reference.
