Going International with NRCSDebbie Surabian

摘要

Iarrived in Hungary early in September 2010 to start my international detail. My focus was to exchange expertise on soil classification systems, soil survey methods, and laboratory analyses, as well as to learn about the current soil survey activitiesin Hungary and within the international soil science community. The host for my international detail was Dr. Erika Micheli, a soil professor at Szent Istvan Egyetem, the main education institute of agriculture in Hungary, located in Godollo. She organized a three-week program to view a variety of soil profiles in Hungary (Fig. 1), visit three County Agricultural Offices, discuss human-transported soils and classification systems, and attend a European Soil Bureau Network plenary meeting and European Commission climate change conference in Belgium.
