Soil physical and chemical properties, Megapit (DP1.00096.001) : RELEASE-2021
Soil properties affect the movement of water, heat and gases into and out of the soil. They also influence the availability of nutrients to plants and soil organisms and the production and stabilization of soil organic matter. Soil physical and chemical properties are measured by horizon from a sing...
