Soil inference system for bridging the environmental modelling gap. The Australian environment is confronted with issues of degradation and long-term sustainability. There is a need to predict landscape processes into the future using simulation models. The limited availability of appropriate information on the soil is a fundamental barrier to this crucial modelling.

There is a need to predict landscape processes into the future using simulation models. The limited availability of appropriate information on the soil is a fundamental barrier to this crucial modelling. This project will develop an inference system to predict soil properties from the very limited information. The results will be used to describe soil quality, to monitor the effects of agricultural management, and principally to provide information needed by policy makers concerned with sustainable land use.Read moreRead less
