Produktbeschreibung

The fourth edition of a bestseller, this volume is a comprehensive treatment of all topics in the area of soil chemistry. It emphasizes the basics of chemical reactions in soil underscored by the fundamental law of equilibrium and the law of mass action. The book applies simple statistics based on the Nernst equation and applies basic laws in weathering, pedology, and chelation. New topics in this edition include String Theory as a new model for atoms, the concept of soil as an electrochemical cell, oxygen revolution, hypoxia, and hydrotropism.
