美国国家土壤科学委员会(USNC/SS)是美国国家科学院(NAS)的常设委员会。它代表美国土壤科学界在国际土壤科学联合会(IUSS,全球土壤科学家联盟,约有60,000名成员)中的利益,在国内和国际土壤科学的发展中发挥领导作用,并就IUSS和美国参与国际土壤竞技场向美国国家科学院、工程院和医学院(NASEM)提供建议。所有美国土壤科学家都隶属于IUSS,因为美国的会员资格由NAS管理,并由国家科学基金会(NSF)支持。IUSS的目标是促进土壤科学的所有分支,支持全世界所有土壤科学家开展活动,并将土壤和土壤科学列入全球议程。美国国家科学院是许多国际科学组织的美国忠实成员,NAS的每个国家委员会代表美国在各自的学科和联盟,使USNC/SS成为IUSS的忠实机构。USNC/SS的成员包括代表土壤科学许多学科的杰出科学家,IUSS的美国领导人,代表SSSA的当然成员以及来自几个专业科学学会的联络人,这些学会的成员具有土壤科学的专业知识(USNC/SS,2020)。
The US National Committee for Soil Science (USNC/SS) is a standing committee of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS). It represents the interests of the US soil science community in the International Union of Soil Sciences (IUSS, the global union of soil scientists with about 60,000 members), provides leadership in the advancement of soil science nationally and internationally, and advises the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) on the IUSS and the US participation in the international soil arena. All US soil scientists are affiliated with the IUSS due to the US membership that is managed by NAS and supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF). The objectives of IUSS are promoting all branches of soil science, supporting all soil scientists across the world in the pursuit of their activities, and putting soils and soil science on the global agenda. The National Academy of Sciences is the US adhering member to many international scientific organizations, whereby each national committee in NAS represents the US in its respective discipline and union, making the USNC/SS the adhering body to IUSS. The membership of the USNC/SS consists of distinguished scientists representing many disciplines within soil science, US leaders in IUSS, an ex-officio member representing SSSA as well as liaisons from several professional scientific societies that have members with expertise in soil sciences (USNC/SS, 2020).
