Abstract: It is apparent that global warming, from which all natures suffer, has just pressed and is increasing in alarming rate. This review, thus, aimed at dealing with the consequences of increment of atmospheric temperature on soil physicochemical, biological and morphological responses. The review revealed that soil shares the detrimental effects of global warming in a way that there is direct relationship between atmospheric temperature and soil temperature. Hence, any change on atmospheric temperature as a result of global warming affects soil organisms. Similarly, soil structure, porosity, infiltration and moisture content, are destroyed by the absence of microbes and due to intensive rain drops. Besides, soil biochemical reaction terminates beyond its optimum temperature rage. Global warming, as a result, entirely disrupts soil functions, which calls for mitigation and adaptation schemes.
