Skrócony opis: |
The objective is to show and explanation the rules of differentiation soil cover on the world and relationships between soil-parent material-climate in different regions of the world. Topics covered a wide range international soil taxonomy description and classification used WRB (IUSS Working Group WRB. 2007). This knowledge will be practiced used in understanding a publications with international soil terminology. The object takes focus also on practice skill to description and classification of soils in the field. |
