Geopedology An Integration of Geomorphology and Pedology for Soil and Landscape Studies /

This book offers a proven approach for reliable mapping of soil-landscape relationships to derive information for policy, planning and management at scales ranging from local to regional. It presents the theoretical and conceptual framework of the geopedologic approach and a bulk of applied research...
