Subject: Nature's Glue for Soils

I have worked as a researcher and technologist with biopolymers to
aggregate soils-get rid of compaction.  I have lots of data--if you have
any interest I would be happy to share my information.  Let me know by
e-mail.

Subject: New soil science website

Hi everyone,

        Does anyone know any soil teaching/tutorial websites? I'm looking for such
sites to be included in my department's homepages. I've just completed
putting up quite a large number of links (over 900 in fact) to various soil
and agriculture websites. But I'm more interested in sites that provide
tutorials/teaching on soil science. Please let me know. The ones I have
collected so far can be located at this URL:

        http://www.agri.upm.edu.my/jst/resources.html

Suggestions and comments are welcomed. Best wishes.

Christopher;

What a wonderful job. Thank you so much for putting this together. A bit
slow coming here from Malaysia, but well worth the wait.

Some useful links I didn't find....

http://syllabus.syr.edu/ESF/RDBRIGGS/FOR345/
http://www.forestry.auburn.edu/studies/course/fy611.html

I'm developing material for some of my courses as well, accessed at

http://weber.u.washington.edu/~robh/Courses/ESC311/1997/

There are some neat home pages (kaolinite, soil amendments, soil
stability, etc.) built by students that are now accessable from there.

Your site is very good!  I am discovering quite a lot through it.

I am not sure if our site fits as a tutorial, but it does have educational
information on
aridic soils of the U.S. and Israel.

Try http://www.waite.adelaide.edu.au/School. This has information on soil
(including the SOIL ZOO!), habitat conservation, the environmental impacts
of pest control and the wine industry. It has projects, a downloadable game,
information, links to other sites and career information.

Cheers
