Hydric Soils of Florida Handbook
4th edition, 241 pages, published March 2007
This is the fourth edition of Florida Hydric Soils Handbook; the first was published in 1990 by Florida Association of Environmental Soil Scientists (FAESS) which was founded in 1975. The members of FAESS began, in 1984, working on the concepts of hydric soils and the procedures to identify them. This fourth edition only remotely resembles the first edition and presents the current hydric soil knowledge which is to a large degree the results of the more than two decades of effort in the hydric soil arena by FAESS members. This book is dedicated to the unnamed members of FAESS, the true trailblazers, and users of this book owe them a large debt of gratitude.
