Collapsing engineering soils are a formidable hazard around the
world. These difficult materials also include some of the world's
most fertile agricultural soils, fostering dense human populations
which are therefore increasingly at risk. Despite an impressive
literature on the engineering aspects of collapsing soils, these
materials are coming under increasing scrutiny by scientists in
other fields. This is most evidently the case with soil scientists,
stratigraphers and sedimentologists. Past earth surface conditions
have a direct influence on the detailed behaviour of collapsible
soils: as a complement, these materials also provide detailed data
on changing global climates. The selected papers presented here
highlight the common ground between three scientific groups with a
vested interest in a better understanding of collapsible soils.
