DOI: 10.1016/j.geoderma.2017.08.009

Abstract: Abstract Soil classification as a world exercise consists of predominantly individual organizations, creating locally meaningful categories for regional soils. This process has inevitably created a recognized disconnect between classification systems, and a push for a… read more here.
