Pedogenic

A dominant pedogenic process is salinization, which produces areas of salt crust where only salt-loving (halophytic) plants can survive. ❋ Unknown (2009)

In this climatic regime, the dominant pedogenic process is calcification; salinization is dominant on poorly drained sites. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Bottom-land and terrace soils of the Copper and Susitna Rivers are stratified, well-drained Entisols without pedogenic horizons. ❋ Unknown (2009)

The pedogenic process associated with prairie vegetation is calcification, as carbonates accumulate in lower soil layers. ❋ Unknown (2009)

In this climatic regime, the dominant pedogenic process is calcification, with salinization on poorly drained sites. ❋ Unknown (2009)

The pedogenic process associated with deciduous forest is podzolization, moderated by warm wet winters. ❋ Unknown (2009)

The soils of the semi-desert shrub are Aridisols with little organic content, pedogenic and (occasionally) clay horizons, and (in some places) accumulations of various salts. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Bicarbonate weathering and leaching and accumulation of clay and silica in subsoils are the main pedogenic processes in the terrace soils. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Laterization is a pedogenic process common to soils found in tropical and subtropical environments. ❋ Unknown (2008)

Gleization is a pedogenic process associated with poor drainage. ❋ Unknown (2008)

Good drainage enhances an number of pedogenic processes of illuviation and eluviation that are responsible for the development of soil horizons. ❋ Unknown (2008)

However, at the macro-scale we can suggest that there are five main principal pedogenic processes acting on soils. ❋ Unknown (2008)

The C horizon has also not been significantly influenced by the pedogenic processes, translocation, and/or organic modification. ❋ Unknown (2008)

Canadian soil scientists required a new method of soil classification that focused on pedogenic processes in cool climatic environments. ❋ Unknown (2008)

These small ridges are composed of mostly fresh, ignimbrite cobbles and reveal little pedogenic development. ❋ Unknown (2006)

The stumps were rooted in a deeply weathered pedogenic surface and prior to their exposure were buried by 3-5 m of sediment. …there is an indication that the subfossil samples recovered in 1999 and 2000 were killed between ~2940 and 2760 14C years BP. ❋ Unknown (2006)
