3 Welcome On behalf of the sponsors, the U.S. National Committee for Soil Science of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, the Soil Science Society of America, and the International Union of Soil Sciences, we welcome you to the 18th World Congress of Soil Science (WCSS). We are delighted to host the Congress in the USA for the first time since With the World Congress of Soil Science theme, "Frontiers of Soil Science: Technology and the Information Age", the scientific program focuses on soil science advances with an emphasis on remote sensing, geographic information systems, landscape analysis, state-of-the-art molecular scale analytical techniques, environmental soil biology, plant/soil interface processes, computer and computational modeling of soil processes and reactions, precision agriculture, and other applications of information science and technology. The technical program includes over 2700 oral and poster presentations in which Divisions, Commissions and Working Group convenors/co-convenors have assembled into 83 oral and poster symposia. There are also IUSS Council Meetings and Division, Commission, and Working Group Business Meetings during the week. The must-see opening session on Monday will open with one of America's most illustrious historical figures, Benjamin Franklin, the great inventor, publisher, politician and diplomat, who is celebrating his 300th birthday. Other opening speakers include Michael Clegg, Foreign Secretary of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences; Ambassador Kenneth Quinn, recognizing the 2006 World Food Prize Laureate who is a soil scientist; Bruce Knight, Chief of the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS); and Ed de Mulder, Past President of the International Union of Geological Sciences, discussing the Year of Planet Earth (YPE) initiative. The plenary address will be given by Jeffrey D. Sachs, the noted economist at Columbia University and author of the acclaimed book, The End of Poverty. Professor Sachs is the Director of the Earth Institute at Columbia and serves as Special Advisor to UN Secretary- General Kofi Annan on the Millennium Development Goals. Two must-attend social events are the Sunday evening opening reception and Thursday evening Gala Banquet. The opening reception will be held in the historic Grand Hall of the Convention Center, in the beautifully renovated Reading Terminal train shed. This is an opportunity for you to gather with your colleagues for food and fellowship, renewing old acquaintances and making new friends. The historical, cultural, athletic, and ethnic flavors of the City of Brotherly Love will be featured including its food and entertainment. Be on the lookout for Ben Franklin or a strutting mummer. The Gala Banquet will be an exquisite affair with good food, fellowship, presentation of awards, entertainment, dancing, and fine wine for all.

11 Awards Dokuchaev Basic Soil Science Award Victor Targulian has spent his 50- year scientific career striving to develop a pedology model as a basic Earth and Biosphere science. During that time, he has described the place and role of the pedosphere among the surface exogenic systems of the Earth and other terrestrial planets while formulating the concept of soil memory as a specific type of record of the biosphere-geospheres interactions. Targulian has developed the general theory of soil system behavior in-time based on the concept of characteristic times of the specific pedogenic processes. He has also studied and revealed the main features of the weathering and pedogenic processes in arctic and boreal humid areas of the northern Eurasia, while developing the method of very detail-field mezo-morphological investigation in complex-organized soil bodies (Albeluvisols) and has studied their cutans assemblages as soil memory carriers and intrasoil barriers and membranes. Liebig Applied Soil Science Award Rattan Lal, Ph.D., professor of soil physics in the School of Environment and Natural Resources, and Director of the Carbon Management and Sequestration Center, FAES/OARDC at The Ohio State University (OSU), Lal served as a soil physicist from 1970 to 1987 at the IITA, Ibadan, Nigeria, conducting long-term experiments on land use, watershed management, methods of deforestation, erosion control, no-till farming, and agroforestry. Since joining OSU in 1987, he has worked on soils and climate change, soil degradation and global food security. He is a fellow of the American Society of Agronomy (ASA) Soil Science Society of America (SSSA), Third World Academy of Sciences, American Association for the Advancement of Sciences, Soil and Water Conservation Society (SWCS), and Indian Academy of Agricultural Sciences. He received the International Soil Science Award, the Soil Science Applied Research Award, and the Soil Science Research Award of the SSSA, the International Agronomy Award and Environment Quality Research Award and Carl Sprengel Agronomic Research Award of the ASA, the Hugh Hammond Bennett Award of the SWCS, and 2005 Borlaug Award. He was awarded an honorary degree of Doctor of Science from Punjab Agricultural University, India and of the Norwegian University of life Sciences, Aas, Norway. He is past president of the World Association of the Soil and Water Conservation and the International Soil Tillage Research Organization, and President-elect of the SSSA. He was a member of the U.S. National Committee on Soil Science of the National Academy of Sciences ( ) and Lead Author of IPCC ( ). He has served on the Panel on Sustainable Agriculture and the Environment in the Humid Tropics of the National Academy of Sciences. He has authored and co-authored about 1100 research publications, in addition has written 9 and edited or coedited 43 books Kubiëna Medal Dr. Herman Mücher, one of three nominees for the Kubiëna Medal, 2006, was unanimously awarded the medal for his outstanding and innovative research based on a combination of meticulous observations in the field, in the laboratory, and in thin sections. During his early career, he founded the micromorphological laboratory at the University of Amsterdam, greatly improving preparation techniques. Recently, he has directed his research towards palaeosols, a theme that Kubiëna also probed. A most important aspect of his work has been his experimental approach toward sediment and soil transport as a basis for micromorphological interpretation of natural soils. During his career at the University of Amsterdam, he trained many graduate and postgraduate students, and was involved in all the Erasmus intensive courses on micromorphology until his retirement. Kubiëna Medal Posthumous Award Dr. A. Jongerius passed away in mid-life, shortly after the establishment of the Kubiëna Medal award. The Committee noted that, had Dr. Jongerius been nominated, he would have proved an outstanding candidate. Apart from his innovative and extensive scientific work, he was the de facto founder of the of the International Working Meetings on Soil Micromorphology, the driving force behind the International Working Group on Soil Micromorphology and the person who saw to the recognition of micromorphology as Subcommission B of the ISSS. Had he survived to the present we are certain he would have actively supported the Commission 1.1 Soil Morphology under the new structure. The posthumous award of the Kubiëna Medal to the late A. Jongerius is seen as an expression of appreciation for his outstanding and pioneering contribution to soil micromorphology. AWARDS 9

In 1961, he initiated a specific method of detailed survey that has been used later on by many countries in Europe and Northern Africa. In 1968, he created the Soil Survey Staff of France and served as Director and kept this responsibility until 1997, when he was appointed Emeritus Director. Since the 1970 s he has been national delegate and international expert for FAO, UNESCO, UNEP and the Council of Europe and the European Commission dealing with soil survey, use and conservation. He was nominated Chairman and general coordinator for the elaboration of the European Soil Geographic Database. He has professional experience in different regions of Europe, Africa, South America and Asia. Jamagne is still an active referee and reviewer for numerous editorial boards of scientific publications, and Chief Editor of the journal of the French Soil Science Society. He has been lecturer at different universities in Europe and South America. He is a Member of the Agricultural Academy of France and has received many awards during his career. J.H.V. VAN BAREN, a long-term officer and first class leader in the ISSS and IUSS, has made major contributions to the Soil Map of the World and has been instrumental in the establishment and development of the unique World Soil Museum (ISRIC) in Wageningen. Dr. van Baren joined FAO-Unesco, working on the FAO- Unesco Soil Map of the World. Its completion in the mid 1970s is by many regarded as an important milestone in soil science. Later, van Baren conducted soil surveys in Bangladesh for FAO for two years before being posted to Kenya to assist with the development of the national soil survey institute. With his Dutch colleagues, (a.o. Dr. W. Sombroek) the first soil reconnaissance of the whole country was made followed by detailed mapping of areas of high agricultural potential. van Baren collected and prepared soil monoliths during his tenure with the International Soil Museum (ISM, now ISRIC following the classification of the FAO-Unesco Soil Map of the World). These monoliths were the foundation of the unique ISRIC collection of today, with over 900 soil profiles. The transfer of the International Soil Museum from Utrecht to Wageningen took place in In addition to the work on monoliths, van Baren was concerned with developing the display of soil monoliths in the exhibition hall. This display was based upon the categories of the Legend of the FAO- Unesco Soil Map of the World, extending the fascinating work he began with Dr Dudal in Rome. van Baren started the book review section of the ISSS Bulletin in the early 1970s. Each year the number of reviews grew and in the 1990s, he reviewed 100 to 150 books annually for the Bulletin. Many readers of the Bulletins have indicated that they found the book review section the most useful and informative part of the Bulletin. Elected Deputy Secretary General of the ISSS in 1999, he became heavily involved in the day-to-day management of the society including its transformation to a union (IUSS). He has been supportive in national soil science societies, particularly in developing countries and has maintained a wide global network of soil scientists. In 2002, he officially retired from his Deputy Secretary General post of the IUSS, but he continues to review books for the IUSS Bulletin. AWARDS Donald R. Nielsen, Professor of Soil and Water Science at the University of California, Davis, taught soil physics courses, integrating chemical and biological processes. His research and that of his students included miscible displacement, microbiological transformations, scaling soil properties and analyzing field soil variability. While at Davis, he collaborated with 90 soil scientists from 40 countries. Nielsen retired in 1994, but he continues to visit and encourage young colleagues worldwide. He has served as president of Soil Science Society of America, American Society of Agronomy, Hydrology Section of the American Geophysical Union and Soil Physics Commission of ISSS. He is chair of the US National Committee of Soil Science. LARRY P. WILDING is Professor Emeritus, Soil and Crop Sciences Department, Texas A&M University, College Station, TX.

20 Tour s and Workshops Pre Congress Tour 7 Acid Sulfate Soils of U.S. Mid-Atlantic/ Chesapeake Bay Region Contact: Del Fanning, Univ. of Maryland (dsf@umail.umd.edu) Tour Starts: July 6, 2006, in Philadelphia, PA Tour Ends: Saturday, July 8, 2006 No. of Participants: Minimum 30; Maximum 45 Cost: $550 This tour will bring together soil scientists with a strong interest in acid sulfate soils to demonstrate the kinds of acid sulfate soils, and societal environmental problems related to them, in the region surrounding the Delaware and Chesapeake Bay. A primary goal will be to show the wide variety of acid sulfate soils (potential, active, and postactive) that occur in this region. Potential acid sulfate soils, primarily Sulfaquents and Sulfihemists, occur as tidal marsh soils and as subaqueous soils in shallow bays. Many of the tidal marsh soils around Chesapeake Bay are submerged upland soils because of slowly (sea level rise of about 5mm/ year) subsiding landscapes. Active acid sulfate soils (Sulfaquepts, Sulfudepts and Sulfic Endoaquepts) occur primarily because of human disturbance of sulfidic materials. They occur in dredged materials in diked disposal areas and in uplands where Cretaceous and Tertiary sediments have been exposed by construction activities. Many of the native upland soils of this region, many of which are Ultisols by Soil Taxonomy, are post-active acid sulfate soils. Jarosite that formed thousands if not millions of years before present is found in the oxidized zone in which these soils exist. Pyrite occurs in the unoxidized zone that may be found at depths of 2 to 20 meters. These and other sulfur-bearing minerals (e.g. gypsum formed from carbonate shells) attest to the role that acid sulfate soil processes have played in the development of these soils. Iron oxide and silica cementation features from some of these soils are thought to have formed by acid sulfate soil processes. The need for improved acid sulfate soil education of engineers involved in construction activities in these landscapes will be pointed out. Post Congress SOLD OUT Tickets are no longer available Tour 1 Cryosols and Arctic Tundra Ecosystem Formerly listed as a Pre Congress Tour Contact: Chien-Lu Ping, Univ.of Alaska (pfclp@uaa.alaska.edu ) Tour Starts: July 16, 2006, at Fairbanks, AK Tour Ends: July 22, 2006, at Fairbanks, AK No. of Participants: Minimum 15; Maximum 20 Cost: $2380 NOTE: Sleeping bags are required for the 4 night stay at Toolik Lake Station. The tour will take participants through the boreal forest in the Fairbanks area of interior Alaska to view the effects of landform and slope aspect on soil formation. The interior Alaska is in the zone of discontinuous permafrost. The distribution of permafrost is controlled by drainage, slope and aspect, and vegetation succession after wildfires. In Fairbanks near the University Campus the tour will lead the delegates to a catena in which the effect of slope and aspect on permafrost distribution is evident. Also in the area the delegates will see the result of land clearing 50 years ago in soils with ice lens and ice wedges. In addition, the tour will tour the Fox Permafrost Tunnel to study the formation of ice wedges and lenses from under the ground surface. The construction of the pipeline and the engineering solutions to overcome permafrost hazards will be discussed. Further north, the tour will lead the delegates to cross the Arctic Circle and across the Brooks Range into the treeless arctic tundra of the North Slope of Alaska. The delegates will examine the non-sorted circle formation and the cryoturbated tundra soils on Arctic Foothills and the Arctic Coastal Plain. Infrastructure design to overcome potential problems caused by permafrost in the oil field on the arctic coast will be discussed. Here in northern Alaska, the delegates will experience 24 hours of sunlight and see wildlife along the way. The tour starts with a bus from Fairbanks and also ends in Fairbanks.

33 International Year of Planet Earth fertile ground for soils The United Nations General Assembly, meeting in New York, has proclaimed the year 2008 to be the United Nations International Year of Planet Earth. The Year's activities will span the three years The Year's purpose, encapsulated in it strapline Earth sciences for society, is to: Reduce risks for society caused by natural and human-induced hazards Reduce health problems by improving understanding of the medical aspects of Earth science Build safer structures and expand urban areas, utilizing natural subsurface conditions Determine the non-human factor in climatic change Enhance understanding of the occurrence of natural resources so as to contribute to efforts to reduce political tension Detect deep and poorly accessible groundwater resources Improve understanding of the evolution of life Increase interest in the Earth sciences in society at large Encourage more young people to study Earth science in university The Year aims to raise $20 million from industry and governments and will spend half on co-funding research, and half on Outreach activities. It will be the biggest ever international effort to promote the Earth sciences. Apart from researchers, who are expected to benefit under the Science Programme, the principal target groups for the Year's broader messages are: Decision makers and politicians who need to be better informed about how Earth scientific knowledge can be used for sustainable development The voting public, which needs to know how Earth scientific knowledge can contribute to a better society Fellow geoscientists, who are very knowledgeable about various aspects of the Earth but who need help in using their knowledge for the benefit of the world's population. The research themes of the year, set out in 10 science prospectuses, were chosen for their societal relevance, multidisciplinarity and outreach potential. The Year has 12 Founding Partners, 23 Associate Partners including ISRIC, and is backed politically by 97 countries representing 87% of the world's population. The Year was promoted politically at UNESCO and at the United Nations in New York by the People's Republic of Tanzania. The Year is now open to Expressions of Interest from researchers within each of its 10 themes, one of which is Soils - a research theme set out in broad terms in the Year's Prospectus number 10, written by a Key Text Team under David Dent comprising Alfred Hartemink and John Kimble. This prospectus is now available as a PDF download from and is open to Expressions of Interest from researchers. The Outreach programme of the year is also now open to expressions of interest, and will work in a similar way by receiving and responding to bids for support from individuals and organizations worldwide. 31

189 Lifestream The virid land was lush and wild The unkempt beauty of a tousled child Its people nestled the red rocked land And ate the fruits from its dusty hand They drank the drams of ancient stores Primeval rains that soils did leach Through crusts of earth to hidden wells So deep that only time could reach From the roaring river underneath Surfaced a salt-savored flood The people drank and the ancient stream Became their briny blood White flames of fire may scorch the bush Tractors and scythes may hew But the deep dark stream will wash the roots And force the buds anew Sprinkle sculptured buildings On the scene that is erased But see who walks among them With dignity and grace The earth supports their barefoot steps Babes bulge on their backs Ancient streams pulse through their veins They walk the ancestral track Patricia Brams, Ph.D. Dr. Brams is an International Educator who has served as Professor in Communications at Njala University College Sierra Leone. We Call It Soil IUSS Anthem Chorus It is our life! We call it soil It is the stuff, in which we toil From soil we've sprung, to soil we'll go Protect the soil of this earth so we can grow Verse I From podsols beneath snow drifts To aridisols where few crops live Soil is as varied, as the rainbow And is as precious as a rainbow's pot of gold Chorus Verse II Some soils are dry, some soils are wet Some soils are fertile, and from them high yields you get But if you don't, give to the soil Then you will not reap a thing for all your toil Chorus Verse III We study chelates, leachates and porosity We learn our muck and peat and mineralogy Some study urban, some are in rural And we can tell, just by the smell, who's in manural Chorus Verse IV Soils are just like humanity With yellow, brown, red, black and white--you'll see That some are dull, and some are gray And can fall prey to greed of man, that's our decay Chorus (LEAD) Verse V A living world beneath our feet It even lives, beneath our streets With flora and fauna so complete It can save us from the brownfields of defeat Chorus (OUT) Music: "Boxturtle Bob" Chirnside Lyrics: "Boxturtle Bob" Chirnside and A.E.
