# Welcome to c/soilscience @ slrpunk.net [http://slrpunk.net]! > A science based community to discuss and learn all things related to soils. [https://mander.xyz/pictrs/image/611854d1-deed-41fe-94cb-6884df803eeb.png] — — ## Notice Board This is a work in progress, please don’t mind the mess. — — Subdisciplines of soil science include: - Soil Taxonomy & mapping - Soil Fertility & Organic Amendments - Soil Chemistry & Remediation - Soil Mineralogy - Soil Physics - Soil Biology These subdisciplines are used by various other disciplines, particularly those related to reclamation, remediation, and agriculture. ## Rules 1. Don’t throw mud. Be kind and remember the human. 2. Keep it rooted (on topic). 3. Please use a tag. 4. No spam. 5. Memes are welcome, but the focus of this community is science-based — — ## Resources ### Blogs - Wonder of Soil [https://wonderofsoil.substack.com/] ### Maps & Datasets #### Europe - Agrifood Soilscapes (UK) [https://www.landis.org.uk/soilscapes/] - Datasets from the BGS (UK) [https://www.bgs.ac.uk/geological-data/] - Datasets from the James Sutton Institute (UK) [https://www.hutton.ac.uk/learning/soilshutton/soil-data-and-maps] - Scotland Environment Soil Maps [https://soils.environment.gov.scot/maps/] - Soil Atlas of Europe [https://esdac.jrc.ec.europa.eu/content/soil-atlas-europe] - UK Geochemical Atlas [https://nora.nerc.ac.uk/id/eprint/18016/1/Advanced_Soil_Geochemical_Atlas_of_England_and_Wales.pdf] - UK Soil Observatory [https://www.bgs.ac.uk/map-viewers/uk-soil-observatory-ukso/] #### World - Global Soil Biodiversity Atlas [https://www.globalsoilbiodiversity.org/atlas-introduction] - ISRIC World Soil Information [https://www.isric.org/explore] - Soil Grids 250m 2.0 [https://soilgrids.org/] ### Soil Contamination: - Cornell Guide to Testing Contaminated Soils [https://cwmi.css.cornell.edu/guidetosoil.pdf] - Wikipedia Lists of Hyperaccumulators for Bioremediation [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_hyperaccumulators] [https://mander.xyz/pictrs/image/a881e09c-afa8-40d2-bc0f-f62307237f55.jpeg] — — ## Similar Communities - !geology@lemmy.ca [/c/geology@lemmy.ca] [https://lemmy.ca/c/geology] - !geophysics@lemmy.ca [/c/geophysics@lemmy.ca] [https://lemmy.ca/c/geophysics] - !geologycareers@lemmy.ca [/c/geologycareers@lemmy.ca] [https://lemmy.ca/c/geologycareers] - !mining@lemmy.ca [/c/mining@lemmy.ca] [https://lemmy.ca/c/mining] - !openscience@lemmy.ml [/c/openscience@lemmy.ml] [https://lemmy.ml/c/openscience] ## Sister Communities - !anthropology@mander.xyz [/c/anthropology@mander.xyz] [/c/anthropology@mander.xyz] - !archaeology@mander.xyz [/c/archaeology@mander.xyz] [/c/archaeology@mander.xyz] - !biodiversity@mander.xyz [/c/biodiversity@mander.xyz] [/c/biodiversity@mander.xyz] - !earthscience@mander.xyz [/c/earthscience@mander.xyz] [/c/earthscience@mander.xyz] - !folklore@mander.xyz [/c/folklore@mander.xyz] [/c/folklore@mander.xyz] - !geography@mander.xyz [/c/geography@mander.xyz] [/c/geography@mander.xyz] - !geospatial@mander.xyz [/c/geospatial@mander.xyz] [/c/geospatial@mander.xyz] - !history@mander.xyz [/c/history@mander.xyz] [/c/history@mander.xyz] - !houseplants@mander.xyz [/c/houseplants@mander.xyz] [/c/houseplants@mander.xyz] - !old_maps@mander.xyz [/c/old_maps@mander.xyz] [/c/old_maps@mander.xyz] - !palaeoecology@mander.xyz [/c/palaeoecology@mander.xyz] [/c/palaeoecology@mander.xyz] - !palaeontology@mander.xyz [/c/palaeontology@mander.xyz] [/c/palaeontology@mander.xyz] - !plantid@mander.xyz [/c/plantid@mander.xyz] [/c/plantid@mander.xyz] - !reclamation@slrpnk.net [/c/reclamation@slrpnk.net] [/c/reclamation@slrpnk.net] - !scicomm@mander.xyz [/c/scicomm@mander.xyz] [/c/scicomm@mander.xyz] - !science_memes@mander.xyz [/c/science_memes@mander.xyz] [/c/science_memes@mander.xyz] Find us on Reddit - r/sedimentology [https://www.reddit.com/r/sedimentology]
