Description of soil ABSKYaapt~N (SMOKY)
Classification | O.LG |
---|---|
Profile | Native soil profile The soil is in native condition (undisturbed by agriculture). |
Kind of material | Mineral The soil material is primarily composed of mineral particles. |
Water table | Growing season The water table is present in the soil during the growing season. |
Root restrictions | No root restricting layer The growth of plant roots is not restricted by any soil layer. |
Type of root restricting layer | n/a Not Applicable |
Drainage | Poorly drained Water is removed so slowly in relation to supply that the soil remains wet for a comparatively large part of the time the soil is not frozen. Excess water is evident in the soil for a large part of the time. Subsurface flow or groundwater flow, or both, in addition to precipitation are the main water sources; there may also be a perched water table, with precipitation exceeding evapotranspiration. Soils have a wide range in available water storage capacity, texture, and depth, and are gleyed subgroups, Gleysols, and Organic soils. |
Mode of Deposition | Texture | Chemical properties |
---|---|---|
Till (Morainal) Morainal material (till) deposited by glacial ice: a mixture of boulders, sand, silt, and clay. |
Medium Medium (USDA Texture Classes: VFSL,L,SIL,SI,GL,GSIL). |
Moderately / Very Strongly Calcareous 6 - 40 CaCO3 equivalent (%) |
