Description
Munsell Washable Book of Soil Color Charts 2009 Revision.
Use to judge color of rocks, archaeological specimens, animal pelage,
and many natural products in this color range. This revised edition
features the same colors available in previous books plus additional
color. Included are a 10Y and 5GY soil chart for glauconite soils, a 5R
soil chart for Australia andSoutheast Asia, and a 7.5R soil chart for
tropical and semi-tropical soils. A Munsell high value, low chroma white
page shows half steps from 8.5 to 9.5 in value with chromas of 1 and 2
for N, 7.5YR, 10YR, and 2.5Y. Use this page to describe carbonate,
silica, gypsum, and soluble salt precipitates and evaporites common to
arid and semi-arid environments as well as very lightcolored parent
materials such as diatomaceous earth and volcanic ash. The book light
gray pages decrease sun glare. The color chips are recessed into each
water-resistant page to allow dirt and debris to be wiped off easily
with less effect on the color chips. 2009 Revised Edition.
