Podzolization as studied from terraces of various ages in two river valleys, Northern Finland.
The study was made in the Ivalojoki and Oulankajoki valleys, consisting of terraces of well sorted sandy material aged 9500â300 B.P. The vegetation is characterized by dry and moderately dry forest types with Scots pine ( L.) as the dominant tree species. The study included: forest types, particle s...

| Summary: | The study was made in the Ivalojoki and Oulankajoki valleys, consisting of terraces of well sorted sandy material aged 9500â300 B.P. The vegetation is characterized by dry and moderately dry forest types with Scots pine ( L.) as the dominant tree species. The study included: forest types, particle size and sorting of mineral horizons, thickness of horizons, amount of organic material, pH, electrical conductivity, and NHOAc (pH 4.56) extractable Fe, Al, P, K, Mg, Mn and Zn concentrations. The principal aim was to study the interrelationships between all these properties with special reference to the age of the soil.Pinus sylvestris42 |
