Sobre IBD

This book discusses the various soil processes and also emphasizes on the topic of quality analysis. Soil quality and properties are constantly affected by human activities and natural processes. A number of researches are being conducted to assess soil quality in various environmental scenarios because of the growing need for soil protection. The estimation of soil quality determines the capability of soil to carry out its functions in current scenarios and also how it can be preserved for future land use. There are certain indicators currently being employed to estimate soil quality such as biological, chemical and physical properties along with various soil processes. Current trends and soil processes employed in assessment of soil quality provide wide depiction of current researches in soil quality assessment comprising of general studies on soil processes, evaluation of significant indicators of soil quality such as soil organic matter dynamic and soil-plant interaction along with elaboration on various methodologies for maintaining soil health.
