About 20 years ago the emphasis in soil chemistry research switched
from studies of problems related to scarcities of plant nutrients
to those arising from soil pollutants. The new problems have come
about because of the excessive uses of fertilizers, the inputs from
farm and industrial wastes, the widespread applications of
anthropogenie xenobiotic chemicals, and the deterioration of soil
structure resulting from certain modern agriculture practises. The
International Society of Soil Science (ISSS) recognized these
problems and challenges. A provisional Working Group was set up in
1978 to focus attention on soil colloids with a view to
understanding better the interactions wh ich take place at their
surfaces. It was recognized that these interactions are fundamental
to problems of soil fertility, as weIl as to those of soil
pollution. After the group had received the official support of
ISSS at its 12th International Congress in New Delhi in 1982 it set
as its priority the assembling and evaluation of information,
relevant to the soil and environmental sciences, concerning the
composition and structure of soil colloids. Prior to that aseries
of Position Papers were published in the Bulletin of the
International Society of Soil Science (Vol. 61, 1981) outlining the
state of knowledge about the composition and properties of soil
colloids.
