Place-to-place variation within soil units influences the study and use of soil, but is seldom formally acknowledged in soil maps and descriptions. Research on soil variation could be improved by increased coordination of experimental designs and by application of statistical methods suitable for analysis of place-to-place variation, including statistical functions such as spatial autocorrelation. Eventually it may be possible to estimate spatial variation in unstudied soils by means of easily observable landscape characteristics used as surrogates for soil variability
