The Soils of Ecuador
The Soils of Ecuador[electronic resource] /edited by José Espinosa, Julio Moreno, Gustavo Bernal. - 1st ed. 2018. - VII, 164 p. 136 illus., 130 illus. in color.online resource. - World Soils Book Series,2211-1255. - World Soils Book Series,.

Introduction -- Soils of the Tropical Coastal Plain -- Soils from the great tabular cone totally covered with volcanic ash -- Soils from the great tabular cone of Santo Domingo -- Soils from the western Andean Piedmont -- Soils from the Chongón–Colonche mountain range -- Soils of the Andean Highlands -- Soils from the northern Andean highlands -- Soils from the central Andean highlands -- Soils from the southern Andean highlands -- Soils of the Amazonian region -- Soils from the sub-Andean reliefs -- Soils of Galapagos Islands -- Soils from the Santa Cruz Island.

This is the first book to comprehensively discuss Ecuadorian soils. Richly illustrated, it provides information on the unique characteristics and distribution of these soils. Due to the influence of the Andes, which vastly modified the climate and parental materials, a relative small country like Ecuador has a wide variety of soil orders, rarely found in other countries. The country is divided into three distinctive regions by the Andes: The Coastal Plain, the Andean Highlands, and the Amazonia Region each with different soil development, influenced by the varying conditions in that region. It is also necessary to consider the Galapagos Islands as a separate region with a particular climate and parental material.
