Abstract
AbstractMorphological and certain chemical properties of Alligator, Sharkey, Patton and Dekoven series found in the Western Coal Field region of Kentucky were determined and compared with available data from other areas. These series occur in depressional areas along the tributaries of the Ohio River and are derived from mixed sediments of sandstone, shale, loess, limestone and glacial till origin. The data obtained for the Alligator, Sharkey and Patton profiles sampled in Kentucky differ very little from similar data for these series sampled and studied in other states. Consequently, their classification appears to be justified. No data on the Dekoven series from other states were available for comparison.
