Rédigé, révisé et édité par des membres de la Société canadienne de science du sol, Introduction à la science du sol : de la théorie à la pratique en sols canadiens fournit une introduction aux disciplines fondamentales de la science du sol (pédologie, biologie et microbiologie du sol, physique, chimie, fertilité et nutriments cyclisme et gestion) et présente les concepts et le vocabulaire nécessaires aux étudiants qui commencent tout juste leur parcours en sciences du sol. Le manuel est approprié pour une utilisation dans un certain nombre de disciplines, y compris les sciences de l’environnement et de l’agriculture, ainsi que les disciplines connexes de la géologie, de la géographie et de l’ingénierie des ressources naturelles. Les chapitres du manuel sont présentés en trois sections selon le contenu et le niveau de complexité. La première section du livre, Se creuser la tête, présente les disciplines de base dans une série de chapitres écrits par des auteurs dont l’expertise en recherche éclaire le contenu du chapitre. Des documents supplémentaires spécifiques aux régions du Canada sont présentés dans les chapitres d’une deuxième section, Creuser partout au Canada. La troisième section, Creuser encore davantage, fournit un aperçu approfondi de certains sujets au-delà de ce qui est considéré comme le matériel disciplinaire de base en science du sol, et peut être appropriée pour les cours de science du sol de niveau supérieur ou dans une discipline connexe. Le manuel comprend un glossaire complet qui est accessible via des liens dans le texte. Il est important de noter que le manuel vise également à présenter aux étudiants le Système canadien de classification des sols en fournissant des exemples de tout le long et l’ensemble du deuxième plus grand pays du monde, et à la Société canadienne de la science du sol, dont les membres partagent une passion commune pour le sol et sont désireux de partager et d’inculquer cette passion aux étudiants à travers le Canada.

Written, reviewed and edited by members of the Canadian Society of Soil Science, Digging into Canadian Soils: An Introduction to Soil Science provides an introduction to the core disciplines of soil science (pedology, soil biology and microbiology, physics, chemistry, fertility and nutrient cycling, and management), and introduces the concepts and vocabulary needed by students just beginning their soil science journey. The textbook is appropriate for use in a number of disciplines, including environmental and agricultural sciences, as well as related geology, geography and natural resources engineering  disciplines.

Chapters within the textbook are presented in three sections according to the content and level of the complexity. The first section of the book, Digging In, introduces core disciplines in a series of chapters written by authors whose research expertise informs the chapter content. Supplementary materials that are specific to regions in Canada are presented in chapters within a second section, Digging Across Canada. The third section, Digging Deeper, provides in-depth overview of some topics beyond what is considered core soil science disciplinary material, and may be appropriate for upper level soil science or related discipline courses. The textbook includes an extensive glossary that is accessible via in-text links. Importantly, the textbook is intended also to introduce students to the Canadian System of Soil Classification by providing examples from across the length and breadth of the world’s second largest country, and to the Canadian Society of Soil Science, whose members share a common passion for soil science and are keen to share and instill this passion with students across Canada.
