The book aims to reveal Mexico’s soil diversity, land-use systems, and current degradation problems through images that illustrate the diversity of soils' environmental, social, and economic conditions. As a country of contrasts, the main challenge is integrating the diversity of socioecological conditions around the nation; for this reason, the book provides an overview of soil landscapes in seven ecological regions delimitated by their location, geological elements, landforms, soils, vegetation, climate, fauna, and human interactions with their environment.
The book was achieved thanks to top researchers who collaborated with their work. The scientific editors intend that this volume take place in scientific literature as an instrument for disseminating Soil Science, a tool for reflection about soil degradation problems, and for questions about how human activity impacts the environment and the sustainability of the land-use systems in Mexico and worldwide.
