Description of soil ONBMT~~~~~N (BELMONT)
Classification | O.DYB |
---|---|
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 | Never The water table is not present in the soil at any time. |
Root restrictions | Fourth layer The growth of plant roots is restricted by the fourth layer. |
Type of root restricting layer | Lithic Lithic (consolidated bedrock) |
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 |
---|---|---|
Saprolite This material is rock and contains a high proportion of residual silts and clays formed by alteration, chiefly by chemical weathering. The rock remains in a coherent state, interstitial grain relationships are undisturbed, and no downhill movement due to gravity has occurred. The process is assumed to be active. Examples: rotten rock containing corestones. |
Moderately Coarse Moderately Coarse (USDA Texture Classes: VFS,LVFS,CSL,SL,FSL,GSL,CBSL,GFSL). |
Medium Acid to Neutral pH 5.6 - 7.4 |
