Canadian Society of Soil Science
It draws from and interfaces with numerous fields such as agriculture, agrometeorology, ecology, engineering, environmental science, environmental stewardship, forestry, geography, geology, hydrology, land rehabilitation, landscape processes, mapping and evaluation, microbiology, soil-plant interactions, and urban uses.The journal welcomes interdisciplinary works, particularly those linking soil with climate change, food security, and sustainable development goals.The Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) Map of Canada was completed and submitted in 2017 for the 0–30 cm depth interval with contributions from researchers and organisations from across the country.The Pedology Committee is currently spearheading a revision of elements of the Canadian System of Soil Classification (CSSC) with a goal of producing a 4th edition.Venues for review will include discussion (at workshops and via online forums) and the sharing and vetting of proposed changes through peer-reviewed publication in the Canadian Journal of Soil Science.
