ENVR TC 192 — Introduction to Soil Science
This course is designed to provide a comprehensive treatment of the basic principles of soils as they exist and interact in the environment. The course emphasizes soil as a natural body in nature, its formation, classification, chemical and physical properties. The course is designed to be equally useful to the non-agricultural production students, including those studying plant science, ecology and environmental science, and to students in curricula such as agronomy, crop science, soil science, horticulture and forestry. Writing assignments, as appropriate to the discipline, are part of the course.
