,Vasily Dokuchaev
Vasily Vasilyevich Dokuchaev (Russian: Васи́ лий Васи́ льевич
Докуча́ев) (March 1, 1846 in Milyukovo, Smolensk Governorate –
November 8, 1903 in Saint Petersburg) was
a Russian geologist and geographer who is credited with laying the
foundations of soil science.
Vasily Vasil'evich Dokuchaev is commonly regarded as the father
of Soil science, the study of soils in its natural setting. He developed
soil science in Russia, and was, perhaps the first person to make
wide geographical investigations of different soil types. His great
contribution to science was, figuratively, to "put soils on the map".
He introduced the idea that geographical variations in soil type could
be explained in relation not only to geological factors (parent
material), but also to climatic and topographic factors, and the time
available for pedogenesis (soil formation) to operate. Using these
ideas as a basis, he created the first soil classification. His ideas were
quickly taken up by a number of soil scientists, including Hans Jenny.
He worked on soil science, and developed a classification scheme
describing five factors for soil formation. He arrived at his theory
after extensive field studies on Russian soils in 1883. His most
famous work is Russian Chernozem (1883). Thanks to Dokuchaev's
works a number of Russian soil terms are in the international soil
science vocabulary (chernozem, podsol, gley, solonets).
A crater on Mars is named in his honor and the Dokuchaev Award,
the equivalent of the Nobel Prize in the field of Soil Science, was
instituted by the International Union of Soil Sciences.
