Cambisols are developed in medium and fine-textured materials derived from a wide range of rocks, mostly in alluvial, colluvial and aeolian deposits. Most of these soils make good …

Cambisols are characterized by slight or moderate weathering of parent material and by absence of appreciable quantities of illuviated clay, organic matter, aluminium and/or iron compounds. …

Cambisols are the second most extensive soil group on Earth, occupying 12 percent of the total continental land area—mainly in boreal polar regions, in landscapes with high rates of erosion, …

Management and use of Cambisols. By and large, Cambisols make good agricultural land and are intensively used. The Eutric Cambisols of the Temperate Zone are among the most productive …

Cambisols occur mainly in the temperate and boreal regions of the world, where the soil’s parent material is still young or where low temperatures slow down the processes of soil formation.

Jan 1, 2016 · Cambisols are soils at an early (incipient) stage of soil formation. There is generally a brownish discoloration below the surface horizon, to mark the beginning of pedogenesis. …

Set 4 holds soils that are only moderately developed because of their limited pedogenetic age or because of rejuvenation of the soil material. These soils are called Cambisols (from Latin, …

Cambisols combine soils with at least an incipient subsurface soil formation. Transformation of parent material is evident from structure formation and mostly brownish discoloration, …
