Centers and Institutes Soil Survey Geographic (SSURGO) Database The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) - National Cartography and Geospatial Center (NCGC) previously archived and distributed the Soil Survey Geographic (SSURGO) Database. Only file downloads were available from this site. This limited the amount of soil survey information that could be accessed. The NRCS NCGC also supplied SSURGO data to the United States Department of Agriculture - Service Center Agencies (Farm Service Agency, Natural Resources Conservation Service, and Rural Development) Geospatial Data Gateway . While the Gateway provides file downloads, a customer can also order SSURGO data on CD-ROM or DVD. The NRCS Soil Survey Division recognized that increased functionality for access of soil survey information was needed. In December 2003 the Soil Data Mart web application came online. The SSURGO data were migrated to the Soil Data Mart during 2004.

You are here: Home Funding Opportunities / National Research Initiative - Soil Processes National Research Initiative - Soil Processes Soil is a vital natural resource that not only sustains plant and animal productivity, but also has profound effects on the health and quality of the environment. As such, agricultually-related sustainability hinges on the interactions among the biological, chemical and physical properties and processes in this below-ground ecosystem. More science-based knowledge is needed to fill gaps regarding the combined interactions of the properties and processes affecting soil quality as it relates to agricultural sustainability.

Search Chat SOIL may be defined as a thin layer of earth's crust which serves as a natural medium for growth of plants . It is the unconsolidated mineral matter that has been subjected to, and influenced by, genetic and environmental factors parent material, climate, organisms and topography all acting over a period of time. Soil differs from the parent material in the morphological, physical , chemical and biological properties. Also, soils differ among themselves in some or all the properties, depending on the differences in the genetic and environmental factors. Thus some soils are red, some are black; some are deep and some are shallow; some are coarse textured and some are fine-textured. They serve as a reservoir of nutrients and water for crops , provide mechanical anchorage and favourable tilth. The components of soil are mineral matter, organic matter, water and air, the proportions of which vary and which together form a system for plant growth; hence the need to study the soils in perspective. SOIL-FORMING MATERIALS Rocks are the chief sources for the parent materials over which soils are developed. There are three main kinds of rocks:

Individual cells abut each other to form the filaments. Click on image for full size. Cryptobiotic soil crusts, consisting of soil cyanobacteria, lichens and mosses, play an important ecological roles in the arid Southwest. In the cold deserts of the Colorado Plateau region (parts of Utah, Arizona Colorado, and New Mexico), these crusts are extraordinarily well-developed, often representing over 70 percent of the living ground cover. Cryptobiotic crusts increase the stability of otherwise easily eroded soils, increase water infiltration in regions that receive little precipitation, and increase fertility in soils often limited in essential nutrients such as nitrogen and carbon (Harper and Marble, 1988; Johansen, 1993; Metting, 1991; Belnap and Gardner, 1993; Belnap, 1994; Williams et al., 1995).

Soil underpins the productive potential of Victorian agriculture and forestry and the majority of soils are generally highly productive under good management practices. Victorian Resources Online presents a wide range of soil information which will be continually expanded throughout the course of the project. A number of broadscale soil maps of Victoria are presented. More detailed soil maps and information will be progressively developed.
