Distribution of carbon in morphological units from the B horizons of Solonetz-like soils
1941
Retzer, J.L. | Simonson, R.W.
The distribution of carbon within morphological units (columns) from the B horizons of Solnetz-like soils from California and Nevada was determined. Quantities of carbon in the outermost layers on the column faces were, on the average, 123% of those in the central portions of the units, whereas the amounts in the light-colored caps were 55% of the amounts in the core or central portion. The carbon content decreased gradually from the face to the core of each unit and increased from the top of the column downward, at least for one or two mm layer. Quantities of carbon were low in all of the four columns or units studied.
