There is a growing need for quantitative approach in soil science, which arises from a general demand for improved economic production and environmental management. Pedometrics can be defined as the development and application of statistical and mathematical methods applicable to data analysis problems in soil science. This book shows how pedometrics can address key soil-related questions from a quantitative point of view.  It addresses four main areas which are akin to the problems of conventional pedology: (i) Understanding the pattern of soil distribution in character space ? soil classification, (ii) Understanding soil spatial and temporal variation, (iii) Evaluating the utility and quality of soil and ultimately, (iv) Understanding the genesis of soil. This is the first book that address these problems in a coherent quantitate approach. 410 0$aProgress in Soil Science,$x2352-4774 606 $aEnvironmental sciences 606 $aSoil science 606 $aSoil conservation 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aEnvironmental Science and Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G37000 606 $aSoil Science & Conservation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U28000 606 $aAgriculture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L11006 615 0$aEnvironmental sciences. 615 0$aSoil science. 615 0$aSoil conservation. 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 14$aEnvironmental Science and Engineering. 615 24$aSoil Science & Conservation. 615 24$aAgriculture. 676 $a631.40151 702 $aMcBratney$b Alex.
