Abstract

AbstractMineralogical and micromorphological studies of three soil profiles representative of the Forman, Barnes, and an Intermediate soil group (described in the first paper of this series) are presented. The mineralogy is used to evaluate the uniformity of the original materials of each soil. Calculations of the net changes in sand, silt, clay, CaCO3 equivalent, organic matter and volume of two of the profiles and the individual horizons in each are presented and their int rpretations are discussed. There is need for improved sampling techniques and better measures of the natural variability of the materials.
