More about the book
Focusing on Cryopedology, this comprehensive work delves into the soils of cold regions, analyzing Cryosols as a three-part system: active layer, transition layer, and permafrost. It explores soil-forming factors, cryogenic processes, and the classification and distribution of Cryosols across the Arctic, Antarctica, and high mountains. Key topics include their role in earth-system science, impacts of climate change, and management strategies, complemented by vibrant photographs from the author's extensive field research in extreme environments.
