Tropical black soil
|
A general term for dark clayey soils found mainly in the tropics and subtropics. Regur is a typical example. It consists of thick, dark brown A and C horizons. The A horizon swells significantly when wet and shrinks significantly when dry, developing cracks, and the repeated swelling and shrinking tends to create uneven microtopography (gilgai). → Related article Deccan Plateau Source : Heibonsha Encyclopedia About MyPedia Information |
