Compiling information on the soils and biota of arid regions, this useful volume explains how to apply this knowledge in practical situations.

Discussing all pertinent scientific aspects of arid soils, Semiarid Lands and Deserts covers techniques for modern use of arid soils in food production ... contains helpful examples of reclamation from developing countries, where most of these lands are located ... explores current understanding of degradation processes and methods of arid land maintenance, rehabilitation, and increasing their agricultural value... emphasizes the importance of soil biochemical and microbiological activities to nutrient turnover and cycling ... and more.

Generously referenced with over 2,000 literature citations, Semiarid Lands and Deserts is a valuable reference for soil chemists, soil biologists, and biochemists; environmental and range scientists, engineers, and technologists; biogeochemists; natural resources managers; agronomists; microbial ecologists; extension specialists; and graduate students in these disciplines.
