Biography
Randall K. Kolka is Team Leader and Research Soil Scientist for the USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station.
"This book should be read—and frequently returned to—by everyone with interests in either peatland or forest processes (or in both). It is perhaps on the expensive side for undergraduate purchase and, therefore, also a ‘must’ acquisition for libraries supporting peatland courses."
—Olivia Bragg, Mires and Peat, Book Review 2013.02, February 2013
