228 Pedology Investigations in Support of Soil Survey: I

Near-completion of once-over mapping has resulted in an emphasis within the National Cooperative Soil Survey Program to better understand soil processes, to improve data quality and utility, and to improve soil-use interpretations. This session will focus on research being conducted in support of these goals.
