Soil sampling, preparation, and analysis

the long version

"As with the original, the purpose of this second edition of the highly popular Soil Sampling, Preparation, and Analysis is to assist students, technicians, and scientists in the performance and understanding of soil sampling and analysis. With this single volume guide to the methods most commonly used in modern soil laboratories around the world, researchers are spared from having to tote large volumes for the sake of a page or two." "Soil Sampling, Preparation, and Analysis is divided into three sections: the first covers principles of soil sampling, sources of errors, and variability of results; the second explains common procedures for extraction and analysis in soil plant testing, and the last covers instrumentation."--Jacket.
