Soil Hydrology in a Changing Climate

A changing climate is causing challenges for soil and water management in many parts of the world. Current soil management practices need to be redesigned to effectively address present and future fluctuating climates. This book explores how soil management practices impact soil hydrological characteristics, and how we can improve our understanding of soil and water management under changing conditions. This is a valuable resource for land managers, soil conservationists, researchers and others who wish to understand how different management practices affect soil and water dynamics and how these practices can be adjusted to enhance agricultural sustainability and environmental quality. Features: * Explores the impact of changing climate on soil hydrology and soil water dynamics. * Examines how effective soil management can improve soil health, water infiltration and soil water retention. * Discusses relationships of conservation tillage systems, diversified cropping systems, crop residue management, conservation buffers, and forest land use with soil hydrology. * Provides cases studies of modelling of soil water management.
