This open access book is a must-read for students of and beginners
in soil science. In a well-organized and easy-to-follow manner, it
provides basic outlines of soil minerals, new methods and recent
developments in the field, with a special focus on visual aids. The
chapters on primary minerals, secondary minerals, non-crystalline
inorganic constituents and inorganic constituents sensitive to
varying redox conditions will help readers understand the basic
components of soils. Further, readers are introduced to new
analytical methods with the aid of microscopy and recent
developments in the field. Uniquely, the book features case studies
on the identification and isolation methods for vivianite crystals
from paddy field soils, as well as a useful procedure for
identifying noncrystalline constituents such as volcanic glasses
and plant opals, which can also be applied to other soils depending
on the local conditions. Given its focus and coverage, the book
will be useful to all readers who are interested in agronomy, plant
production science, agricultural chemistry and environmental
science. In addition, it can help biogeochemists further expand
their research work on the rhizosphere of wetland plant roots, iron
and phosphate dynamics, etc.
