The course gives knowledge on the role of the soil in ecosystem, on basic soil-forming processes. It gives also knowledge on basic chemical and physical characteristic of soils, evaluation of soil fertility, classification of the soils and possibilities of ecological use of soils. The course concentrates attention mainly on: - soil texture, principles of amelioration of soils with extreme texture - soil physical characteristics, principles of water retention and movement in soil profile - soil solution - soil organic matter content quality and transformation - soil reaction, soil sorption phenomena - soil colloidal system - soil morphology, description of soil profile - classification and cartography of the soil cover - soil ecological functions, contamination and remediation.

They can orient themselves in soil classification and are able to define and describe principal soil units according to the WRB soil classification. They have knowledge on soil geography of the Europe and world .Dovednosti:Students are able to describe soil profile. They can recognize, name and characterize main soil types. They can collect disturbed and undisturbed soil samples. They can perform basic soil laboratory analyses, as for example particle size distribution, soil reaction, or organic matter content. They can create protocols aout soil analyses and their results. They can evaluate the results of basic soil analyses. They can orient themselves in the description of soil properties and composition of horticultural substrates.Kompetence - komunikace:Students can work under supervision or in a team. They can communicate in English using special soil science terminology correctly. They can formulate, discuss, and present their own opinions.
