Moving beyond the traditional emphasis on sodicity, it conceptualises dispersion as a cross-disciplinary phenomenon arising from coupled chemical, physical, and hydrological processes. The book elucidates the mechanisms that drive structural breakdown and links them to consequences for productivity, infrastructure performance, and ecosystem integrity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSynthesising decades of research, the book integrates insights from soil science, hydrology, geotechnical engineering, and land management to establish consistent principles for diagnosis, prevention, and remediation.
