Innovative methods for soil parent material mapping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Soil parent material exerts a fundamental control on many environmental processes. Nevertheless, resulting from the separate mapping programmes of the geological and soil surveys, parent material is currently poorly mapped in the United Kingdom.

Harmonisation of a large-scale historical database with the actual Czech soil classification system

open access: yesSoil and Water Research, 2020
The possibility of the adequate use of data and maps from historical soil surveys depends, to a large measure, on their harmonisation. Legacy data originating from a large-scale national mapping campaign, "Systematic soil survey of agricultural soils in ...

Spatial aspects of applied Soil Science

open access: yesБюллетень Почвенного института им. В.В. Докучаева, 2020
The analysis of peculiarities of applied use of soil data has been carried out. It is shown that most of practical tasks require spatial information about soils and their properties. In this regard, a soil map is considered as a kind of interface between

Digital soil mapping from conventional field soil observations

open access: yesSoil and Water Research, 2013
We tested the performance of a formalized digital soil mapping (DSM) approach comprising fuzzy k-means (FKM) classification and regression-kriging to produce soil type maps from a fine-scale soil observation network in Rišňovce, Slovakia.

A Framework for Retrieving Soil Organic Matter by Coupling Multi-Temporal Remote Sensing Images and Variable Selection in the Sanjiang Plain, China

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Soil organic matter (SOM) is an important soil property for agricultural production. Rising grain demand has increased the intensity of cultivated land development in the Sanjiang Plain of China, and there is a strong demand for SOM monitoring in this ...
