Introduction to Soil Physics Natasha Kennedy

The study of the physical properties and physical processes of the soil is under the domain of soil physics. It is a multidisciplinary science that integrates the principles of physics, physical chemistry, meteorology and engineering for the study of soil components, their phases and dynamics. Such investigations drive solutions to problems in agriculture, ecology and engineering. This textbook is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts in the field of soil physics. Different approaches, evaluations and methodologies have been included in this book. As this field is emerging at a rapid pace, the contents of this book will help the readers understand the modern concepts and applications of the subject.
