Soils of the Gunnarsholt experimental plantation
Soil physical and chemical properties were studied for a newly established plantation forest. The soil classifies as an Andisol as it exists in a region prone to periodic volcanic and aeolian deposition. In this paper, two pedons are described. Soil texture is predominantly silty loam with weak stru...
