Description of soil BCBRM04~~~N (BERMAN)
| Classification | O.HG |
|---|---|
| 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 | Always The water table is always present in the soil. |
| 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Glaciolacustrine Used where there is evidence that the lacustrine materials were deposited in contact with glacial ice. One of the following characteristics must be present:
|
Moderately Fine Moderately Fine (USDA Texture Classes: SCL,FSCL,VFSCL,CL,SICL,GSCL,GL,CBCL). |
Weakly Calcareous < 6 CaCO3 equivalent (%) |
