The soil is a fundamental constituent of the Earth's system,
maintaining a careful state of equilibrium within the biosphere.
However, this natural balance is being increasingly disturbed by a
variety of anthropogenic and natural processes, leading to the
degradation of many soil environments. Soil Management provides a
comprehensive and authoritative introduction to the many problems,
challenges and potential solutions facing soil management in the
twenty-first century. Covering a range of topics, including
erosion, desertification, salinization, soil structure, carbon
sequestration, acidification and chemical pollution, the book also
develops a prognosis for the future of soil management in the face
of growing populations and global warming. Written with the needs
of students in mind, each chapter provides a broad overview of a
problem, analyses approaches to its solution and concludes with
references and suggestions for further reading. Soil Management
will be of great value to environmental science and geography
undergraduates taking soil management courses in their second or
third year.
