Abstract
When drained and cultivated, acid sulfate soils developed on coastal marsh sediments lose some of their specific properties because large amounts of lime are applied before cultivation and sulfate ions are leached out of the profiles. However, these soils still contrast strongly with other Gleysolic soils and their special characteristics should be given more emphasis in the soil classification system, especially for the benefit of soil fertility specialists. Key words: de l'Anse soils, jarosite, Gleysolic soils, sulfur
