Description of soil SKEXW~~~~~N (EXPOSURE REGOSOLIC)

General Characteristics
Classification -.-

Not Applicable

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 Never

The water table is not present in the soil at any time.

Root restrictions Third layer

The growth of plant roots is restricted by the third 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.

Parent Materials
Mode of Deposition Texture Chemical properties
Uppermost Residual

Unconsolidated, weathered, or partly weathered mineral soil material that accumulates by in situ disintegration of bedrock.

Moderately Fine

Moderately Fine (USDA Texture Classes: SCL,FSCL,VFSCL,CL,SICL,GSCL,GL,CBCL).

Undifferentiated

Undifferentiated acidity and/or calcareousness

Below Undifferentiated
