Description

P.J. Schoeneberger (ed.). The science & knowledge in this document are distilled from the collective experience of thousands of dedicated Soil Scientists during the more than 100 years of the Nat. Coop. Soil Survey (NCSS) Program. The instructions, definitions., concepts, & codes are a field guide for making or reading soil descriptions & sampling soils as presently practiced in the U.S. This field guide summarizes & updates the current NCSS conventions for describing soils. Much of the content is an abbreviation of several primary sources: Soil Survey Manual (1993); the PEDON Desc’n. Program vers. 4 Design Documents (1996). Chapters: Site Description; Profiles/PEDON Description; Geomorphic Description; Soil Taxon.; Geology; Location; & Field Sampling.
