Description of soil NLSEC~~~~~N (Seamans Cove)
| Classification | THU.M |
|---|---|
| Profile | Native soil profile The soil is in native condition (undisturbed by agriculture). |
| Kind of material | Organic The soil material is primarily composed of organic 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 | Well drained Water is removed from the soil readily but not rapidly. Excess water flows downward readily into underlying pervious material or laterally as subsurface flow. Soils have intermediate available water storage capacity (4-5 cm) within the control section, and are generally intermediate in texture and depth. Water source is precipitation. On slopes subsurface flow may occur for short durations, but additions are equaled by losses. |
| Mode of Deposition | Texture | Chemical properties |
|---|---|---|
| Undifferentiated organic A layered sequence of more than three undifferentiated types of organic material (>30% organic matter by weight). |
Mesic Mesic |
Extremely / Strongly Acidic pH < 5.6 |
