Identification of the Structure of Soil Cover by Magnetic Susceptibility

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Soils Under Stress

Abstract

Research across an experimental site of 48.7 ha of Chernozem and Phaeozem determined magnetic susceptibility and soil indicators (organic carbon, nitrate and ammonium nitrogen, available phosphorus and potassium, and pH) for individual plots, each with an area of 1.5–2.0 ha. Based on magnetic susceptibility, soil heterogeneity was generalized for elementary geochemical landscapes, each with a particular NPK composition and pH. Magnetic susceptibility has potential for mapping agronomically important soil attributes; this might be a convenient way to implement the principles of precision farming.
