An abridged, student-oriented edition of Hillel's earlier published
Environmental Soil Physics, this is a more succinct elucidation of
the physical principles and processes governing the behavior of
soil and the vital role it plays in both natural and managed
ecosystems. The textbook is self-contained and self-explanatory,
with numerous illustrations and sample problems. Based on sound
fundamental theory, the textbook leads to a practical consideration
of soil as a living system in nature and illustrates the influences
of human activity upon soil structure and function. Students, as
well as other readers, will better understand the importance of
soils and the pivotal possition they occupy with respect to careful
and knowledgeable conservation.
* Written in an engaging and clear style, posing and resolving
issues relevant to the terrestrial environment.
* Explores the gamut of the interactions among the phases in the
soil and the dynamic interconnection of the soil with the
subterranean and atmospheric domains.
* Reveals the salient ideas, approaches, and methods of
environmental soil physics.
* Includes numerous illustrative exercises, which are explicitly
solved.
* Designed to serve for classroom and laboratory instruction, for
self-study, and for reference.
* Oriented toward practical problems in ecology, field-scale
hydrology, agronomy, and civil engineering.
* Differs from earlier texts in its wider scope and holistic
environmental conception
