Description of soil NTAFC6~~~~N (AIR FORCE)

General Characteristics
Classification R.SC

Regosolic Static Cryosol

Profile Native soil profile

The soil is in native condition (undisturbed by agriculture).
Kind of material Unclassified

This material was not classified due to an absence of information or an unusual situation, such as rockland or an extremely shallow soil.
Water table Not applicable

Not applicable.
Root restrictions Not applicable

Non-applicable (e.g. rock, ice).
Type of root restricting layer n/a

Not Applicable
Drainage Moderately well drained

Water is removed from the soil somewhat slowly in relation to supply. Excess water is removed somewhat slowly due to low perviousness, shallow water table, lack of gradient, or some combination of these. Soils have intermediate to high water storage capacity (5-6 cm) within the control section and are usually medium to fined textured. Precipitation is the dominant water source in medium to fine textured soils; precipitation and significant additions by subsurface flow are necessary in coarse textured soils.
Parent Materials
Mode of Deposition Texture Chemical properties
Fluvial

These sediments generally consist of gravel and sand with a minor fraction of silt and rarely of clay. The gravels are typically rounded and contain interstitial sand.
