Description of soil YTGRY~~~~~N (GRAY RIDGE)
Classification | O.HG |
---|---|
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 | Unspecified period The water table is present in the soil during an unspecified period. |
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 | Poorly drained Water is removed so slowly in relation to supply that the soil remains wet for a comparatively large part of the time the soil is not frozen. Excess water is evident in the soil for a large part of the time. Subsurface flow or groundwater flow, or both, in addition to precipitation are the main water sources; there may also be a perched water table, with precipitation exceeding evapotranspiration. Soils have a wide range in available water storage capacity, texture, and depth, and are gleyed subgroups, Gleysols, and Organic soils. |
Mode of Deposition | Texture | Chemical properties |
---|---|---|
Colluvial Massive to moderately-well stratified, nonsorted to poorly sorted sediments with any range of particle sizes from clay to boulders that have reached their present position only by direct, gravity-induced movement. Processes include slow displacements such as creep and solifluction and rapid movements such as earth flows. |
Medium Skeletal Medium Skeletal (USDA Texture Classes: VGSL, VGL). |
Medium Acid to Neutral pH 5.6 - 7.4 |
