Soil Chemistry Course Notes

Overview & Synopsis

UC Davis course notes on soil chemistry include some of the interactions
in the soil system. These include three-phase system of the soil; solid phase
reactivity; and the chemistry of solutions within the soil matrix. Cation
exchange reactions, soil buffering and pH dynamics, and redox reactions
affecting chemistry in soil have also been covered. This resource has been very
important especially for students who wish to understand the intricate processes
by which chemicals regulate soil fertility and health and grant them knowledge
that ensures effective soil management.
