Abstract
The capability of any soil development model to simulate the effects of global change is demonstrated by its ability to explain the diversity of soils worldwide, as these result from various histories of global change. In literature, 17 generalized soil formation processes were distinguished to explain this diversity. The relevance of these generalized processes to model the effects of global change is specified, with associated physico-chemical processes.
