Principles of Soil Science Exercise Manual
This exercise manual was designed for use in an upper-level undergraduate soils course. The manual consists of ten hands-on or experiment-type exercises and fourteen take-home fact-finding and critical thinking exercises. The take-home exercises can be used to complement the hands-on exercises, or they can be used independently.
