    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_vineyard_soil_types

    Vent-based soil is formed from rock material (including pumice and tuff) that has been ejected into the air and cooled before settling to the earth. 2.) Lava-based soil is the product of lava flows from the volcano. Ninety percent of lava-based soil is composed of basalt with the other ten percent composed of andesite, pitchstone, rhyolite, and ...

    Chernozem (/ ˈ tʃ ɜːr n ə z ɛ m / CHUR-nə-zem), [a] also called black soil, regur soil or black cotton soil, is a black-colored soil containing a high percentage of humus [3] (4% to 16%) and high percentages of phosphorus and ammonia compounds. [4] Chernozem is very fertile soil and can produce high agricultural yields with its high ...

  4. Silt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silt

    Silt may occur as a soil (often mixed with sand or clay) or as sediment mixed in suspension with water. Silt usually has a floury feel when dry, and lacks plasticity when wet. Silt can also be felt by the tongue as granular when placed on the front teeth (even when mixed with clay particles). Silt is a common material, making up 45% of average ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_soil

    Soil is made up of layers called soil horizons, these make up a vertical soil profile.There are five master horizons O, A, E, B, and C. The O horizon contains organic matter, A is considered the topsoil, E is present or absent depending on the type of soil and conditions, B is the subsoil, and C is unconsolidated rock.

  6. USDA soil taxonomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USDA_soil_taxonomy

    The soil moisture regime, often reflective of climatic factors, is a major determinant of the productivity of terrestrial ecosystems, including agricultural systems. The soil moisture regimes are defined based on the levels of the groundwater table and the amounts of soil water available to plants during a given year in a particular region.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natchez_silt_loam

    A typical Natchez soil profile consists of a 3-inch (7.6 cm) top soil of dark grayish brown silt loam and to 8 inches (20 cm), a subsurface of brown silt loam, a yellowish brown and dark yellowish brown silt loam subsoil to 36 inches (91 cm) and a substratum that is yellowish brown, and dark yellowish brown silt loam down to 80 inches (200 cm).

  8. Loess - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loess_soil

    The fertility of loess soils is due largely to a high cation exchange capacity (the ability of the soil to retain nutrients) and porosity (the air-filled space in the soil). The fertility of loess is not due to organic matter content, which tends to be rather low, unlike tropical soils which derive their fertility almost wholly from organic matter.

  9. Soil matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_matrix

    In soils, clay is a soil textural class and is defined in a physical sense as any mineral particle less than 2 μm (8 × 10 −5 in) in effective diameter. Many soil minerals, such as gypsum , carbonates, or quartz, are small enough to be classified as clay based on their physical size, but chemically they do not afford the same utility as do ...
