History of Soil Survey in Nevada. A Compilation of Short Stories Commemoratingthe 100th Anniversary of the Soil Survey Program

摘要

In developing this History, the authors have tried to capture a picture of whatit was-and is-like to work hard and love it, to get your hands dirty and your back sweaty analyzing soils in the most remote areas of this great state, and to describe those soils and their respective vegetative communities, so that current and future generations can benefit from this knowledge. The authors have attempted to recognize all of the people who have contributed to the soil survey program in Nevada since it began in 1909.
