LRIGS Online Forum - Anthroposols: Land Reclamation With Human Modified Soils

Location

Canada

Event Date and Time
March 14th, 2024 at 12:00pm MST to March 14th, 2024 at 1:30pm MST

Humans impact everything, including our soil.  We remove, mix and compact soil horizons.  We add amendments, including waste materials, to replace  soil or improve its health.  Soils that that have been highly modified, transformed, or constructed by humans, are known as Anthroposols.


Did you know soil scientists have been working for almost 20 years to include Anthroposols in the Canadian System of Soil Classification?


Join us to learn about Anthroposols with insight from expert panel members.  Learn about the challenges in classification and use of Anthroposols, and their importance in reclaiming disturbed land.

Panel members are: M. Anne Naeth, Andy Etmanski, Leonard Leskiw, Konstantin Dlusskiy and Chris Powter.
