Surface Soil Type: Clay/Clay loam
Family name: Very fine, mixed, isohyperthermic, Aeric Calciaquert
This is a very fine textured soil with high clay content of 60 and has isohyperthermic temperature regime 22C It is a Vertisol ert dominated by shrink swell clays that cause deep wide cracks slickensides very sticky when wet and compact when dry It is saturated with water repeatedly aqu but not as wet as the typical ie it is better aerated usually because either groundwater is deep or the period of saturation is shorter aeric This soil also has high calcium saturation calci in its subsoil horizons
