An approach to studying soil-landscape relationships in Virginia
… methods and techniques were used to examine soil-landscape relationships for residual and colluvial soils of Virginia. Soil micromorphology indicated that although some BC and C horizons in the field appeared structureless, evidence of pedogenic process was observed. These were designated as …
