Zeolitic soils of the Deccan basalt areas in India: their pedology and edaphology
Zeolites play an important role in modifying the chemis-try, physics and biology of soils. Here we review the status of the pedology and edaphology of the zeolitic soils of the Deccan basalt areas of India. Research has ...
Carbon Sequestration in Indian Soils: Present Status and the Potential
India’s growing self-sufficiency in food production
and food stocks since independence suggest that
soils have the capacity to produce. Therefore, a review of
Indian soils and their capacity to sequester carbon; and ...
Soil information system: web-based solution for agricultural land-use planning
The soil-forming factors, especially climate, vegetation
and topography, act on a range of rock formations
and parent materials leading to the development of
different kinds of soils. Through concerted efforts, soil
datasets ...
Red ferruginous soils of tropical Indian environments: A review of the pedogenic processes and its implications for edaphology
Red ferruginous (RF) soils of tropical Indian environments belong to Entisols, Inceptisols, Alfisols, Mollisols and
Ultisols soil orders. The occurrence of Ultisols alongside acidic Alfisols and Mollisols in both zeolitic ...
Soil and water management
Soil and water form the basis of all terrestrial life. Their resources vary widely and are affected by natural and anthropogenic
perturbations. Ancient civilizations and cultures emerged and sustained on good soils; and ...
