This course deals with the state and movement of matter, and with the fluxes and transformations of energy, in soil systems. Its objectives are to develop a basic theoretical understanding of soil physical properties and processes (with emphasis on the statics and dynamics of soil water), and to demonstrate how this understanding can be applied under field conditions to make sound management decisions concerning both agricultural and non- agricultural uses of soils.
