The Soils of Connecticut
Author: Mont Francis Morgan
Publisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9780332583099
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 94
Book Description
Excerpt from The Soils of Connecticut: Progress Report of Investigations 1924-1930 The results of a considerable amount of soil studies with special reference to forestry problems are not included, since this mate rial is part of a separate bulletin which is being prepared for publication. The first soil survey by the United States Bureau of Soils was made in the Connecticut Valley in 1899. This was enlarged to include a considerable adjacent area in 1902. A decade later, in 1911 and 1912, the counties Of Windham and New London were also covered. However, all of this early work was Of a rather general character, many very important soil differences were not recognized, and the location of soil areas on the map was fre quently inaccurate. In spite of these limitations, these older sur veys have served a useful purpose, especially in the Hartford County area, where the physical characteristics of the soils most desirable for cigar-wrapper tobacco were clearly shown. Since the discontinuance of their soil survey work in this state, the United States Bureau of Soils (now the Bureau of Chemistry and Soils) has greatly improved its system of classification and the accuracy of the maps, which now cover nearly one-half of the farm land of the United States.

The Soils of the USA
Author: L.T. West
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 331941870X
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 398
Book Description
This book provides an overview of the distribution, properties, and function of soils in the U.S., including Alaska, Hawaii, and its Caribbean territories. It discusses the history of soil surveys and pedological research in the U.S., and offers general descriptions of the country’s climate, geology and geomorphology. For each Land Resource Region (LRR) – a geographic/ecological region of the country characterized by its own climate, geology, landscapes, soils, and agricultural practices – there is a chapter with details of the climate, geology, geomorphology, pre-settlement and current vegetation, and land use, as well as the distribution and properties of major soils including their genesis, classification, and management challenges. The final chapters address topics such as soils and humans, and the future challenges for soil science and soil surveys in the U.S. Maps of soil distribution, pedon descriptions, profile images, and tables of properties are included throughout the text.

The Soils of Brazil
Author: Carlos E. G. R. Schaefer
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031199499
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 491
Book Description
This book represents the first comprehensive edition, in English, on the soils of Brazil, in the challenge of illustrating all the biomes of a country of truly continental dimension. In addition to presenting the first geosystemic view of Brazilian soils, in all geological, geomorphological and environmental aspects, the book also makes a key contribution to the discussion of current topics in Pedology, such as Anthrosols, Technosols, Soil Management trends and sustainability, Pedometrics and advanced techniques of digital soil mapping. The soils of Brazil were conveniently stratified into sectors and treated within the different biomes, without neglecting any area of the Brazilian territory. Considering the aspects of the landscape of occurrence, climates, geomorphology and geology, each pedological region was abundantly documented with soil profile data and many fine original, three-dimensional illustrations and diagrams, made with care by the authors. Among the regions, the most important are the forested Amazon, the Central Plateau with Cerrados, the Caatingas of the northeastern semi-arid region, the Atlantic Forest in all known variants; in addition, the Restingas, Mangroves, Oceanic Islands, Wetlands of the Pantanal and the subtropical regions of the Pampa and Matas de Araucaria. The book is of great importance as the first published work on Brazilian soils, but it is of great interest to geologists and geomorphologists who study the tropics and subtropics, due to the novelty and scope of the work.
