Download or read book Forest Soils written by Khan Towhid Osman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-12 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forest soil characteristics are not only unique but their interpretation also differs from cropland soils. Just as there are diverse forest types, there are many soil variants that need different management. Today, forest plantations are being intensively managed for profitable timber, pulpwood and energy production. Site selection, species selection, site productivity evaluation, silvicultural treatments, and soil amendments need crucial soil information. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the physical, chemical and biological properties of forest soils and their implications on forest vegetation. Topics discussed include: major forest types of the world and their associated soils; forest biomass and nutrient dynamics; organic matter turnover and nutrient recycling; forest soil disturbance; forest soil and climate change; and forest soil management and silvicultural treatments.
Download or read book Guidelines for Soil Description written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2006 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soils are affected by human activities, such as industrial, municipal and agriculture, that often result in soil degradation and loss. In order to prevent soil degradation and to rehabilitate the potentials of degraded soils, reliable soil data are the most important prerequisites for the design of appropriate land-use systems and soil management practices as well as for a better understanding of the environment. The availability of reliable information on soil morphology and other characteristics obtained through examination and description of the soil in the field is essential, and the use of a common language is of prime importance. These guidelines, based on the latest internationally accepted systems and classifications, provide a complete procedure for soil description and for collecting field data. To help beginners, some explanatory notes are included as well as keys based on simple test and observations.--Publisher's description.

Download or read book Soil Resource Surveys for Forestry written by K. W. G. Valentine and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1986 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Commercial forests are dwindling and to harvest and replant each tree crop successfully a forester must know his land, the composition of the soil and its strengths and limitations. The first study to consider soil survey for forestry, this book explains how to describe, map and assess land for the forest industry, explaining how to grow and harvest trees, how to plan a soil survey, and how to assess and present the data. Taking a practical approach, the volume includes such useful information as how to locate oneself in a forest, "mark up" aerial photographs, and plan a helicopter traverse, as well as lists of equipment suppliers, practicable rates of progress, traverse spacings and inspection densities--all invaluable for survey planning, but rarely published.
