Soil is an important natural resource that covers much of the earth’s land surface. All life on earth depends on the soil as a direct or indirect source of food. Plants are rooted in the soil and obtain nutrients (nourishing substances) from it. Animals get nutrients from plants or from animals that eat plants. Certain microbes in the soil cause dead organisms to decay‚ which helps return nutrients to the soil. In addition‚ many kinds of animals find shelter in the soil. Soil contains mineral

SOIL NAILING INTRODUCTION: Since its development in Europe in the early 1970s‚ soil nailing has become a widely accepted method of providing temporary and permanent earth support‚ underpinning and slope stabilization on many civil projects in the United States. In the early years‚ soil nailing was typically performed only on projects where specialty geotechnical contractors offered it as an alternate to other‚ conventional systems. More recently‚ soil nailing has been specified as the

Eco L: Soil Diversity Introduction Soil is an ecological system consisting of inorganic minerals (sand‚ silt‚ clay‚ and nutrients)‚ pore spaces‚ water‚ gases‚ organic matter‚ living organisms‚ and plants (Thien‚ 2002). The soil is said to be stable structurally and chemically thus is considered an outstanding medium for soil organisms such as bacteria‚ fungi‚ protozoa‚ nematodes‚ arthropods‚ and earthworms. The potential habitats of these soil invertebrates are the spaces within the surface

Sagum May 7‚ 2013 FR1 NATSCI1 “Effects of Soil Erosion in the Philippines” The soil is among our most precious resources‚ yet we often take it for granted or destroy it by making it susceptible to soil erosion. In the Philippines‚ for example‚ 22 provinces had been reported to have "alarming" soil erosion rate. Among those that had been losing their topsoil were Cebu‚ Batangas‚ Marinduque‚ Ilocos Sur‚ and La Union. This means that 58 per cent of the country’s total
