LOT # 2A - FOUR BOOKS Chemical and Physical Properties Soil Map Units MAINE

Description: I have the best selection of nature and science books on E BAY . I’m selling off part of my personal collection of over 3500 + field guides and other books on natural history and science so keep checking all my auctions . See all the books I have on geology and paleontology listed at this time . You are bidding on a new soft cover book called TB034 - Chemical and physical properties of the Charlton, Sutton, Paxton and Woodbridge soil series by R. V. Rourke . This is 6” x 9” with 81 pages from 1969 . Charlton, Sutton, Paxton and Woodbridge soil series were each sampled at five locations. Chemical and physical properties evaluated included particle size distribution, soil reaction, moisture retention, bulk density, coarse fragment volume, exchangeable bases and acidity, saturated hydraulic conductivity, organic carbon and percolation. Properties were evaluated on a horizonal basis whenever possible. Sampling depth was to 40 inches. The samples represent a range of characteristics within each soil series. Each site is not to be considered modal for the particular soil series but was considered to within the range of characteristics of the series at the time of sampling. This is in excellent condition. A new soft cover book called TB155 - Chemical and physical properties of the Chesuncook, Colonel, Dixfield, and Telos soil map units by R. V. Rourke . This is 6” x 9” with 61 pages from 1994 . Changes in Soil Taxonomy in 1992 resulted in reclassification of the Chesuncook and Dixfield soils. Taxonomic placement of the Telos and Colonel soils was not changed. Soil morphology and laboratory analyses were completed for five replicates of each soil map unit. Weighted averages were developed from laboratory data to define the chemical and physical characteristics of each map unit. Data for individual sites and soils are presented. This is in excellent condition. A new soft cover book called TB165 - Chemical and Physical Properties of the Danforth, Elliotsville, Peacham, and Penquis Soil Map Units by R. V. Rourke n . This is 6” x 9” with 59 pages from 1997 . The soils reported in this bulletin have developed in several different parent materials. The Danforth soil has developed from very deep, well drained, loose, high coarse fragment till derived from slate and fine-grained metasandstone. The Elliottsville soils have developed in moderately deep, well drained till derived from slates, metasandstones, phyllite and schists. The Penquis soils developed in moderately deep, well drained till of similar lithology as Elliottsville, but with a higher component of weathered and crushable rock fragments throughout the soil profile. Peacham soils are developed in very deep, very poorly drained, dense till derived from phyllite, schist, and granite. This is in excellent condition. A new soft cover book called TB169 - Chemical and physical properties of the Mapleton, Monson, Saddleback, and Sisk soil map units by R. V. Rourke . This is 6” x 9” with 61 pages from 1998 . Mapleton, Monson, Saddleback, and Sisk soil map units were each sampled at five locations. Soil descriptions and locations were documented in the field. Soil samples were removed from each horizon in a 30-cm square to a 100-cm depth or to bedrock whichever came first. Laboratory analyses of each soil horizon sampled included texture, volume of stones, organic content, bulk density, soil water retention, soil reaction, exchangeable cations, extractable acidity, and exchange acidity. Soil descriptions and tables of soil properties were constructed for each sample site. Soil data for each soil map unit was summarized by horizon using weighted means. This is in excellent condition.
