Description of soil NTNES6~~~~N (NESMITH)
Classification | R.SC |
---|---|
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 | Rapidly drained Water is removed from the soil rapidly in relation to supply. Excess water flows downward if underlying material is pervious. Subsurface flow may occur on steep gradients during heavy rainfall. Soils have low available water storage capacity (2.5-4 cm) within the control section, and are usually coarse textured, or shallow, or both. Water source is precipitation. |
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. |
