One-, Two- and Three-Dimensional Pedogenetic Models

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Progress in Soil Science ((PROSOIL))

Abstract

Various methods have been used to measure or estimate pedogenic processes that are responsible for the differentiation of a soil profile. In this chapter, the modelling and quantification of these processes will be reviewed and discussed.

“We know more about the movement of celestial bodies than about the soil underfoot”.

Leonardo da Vinci, circa 1500s
