Abstract

An undisturbed site under forest cover near Breton, Alberta was chosen to study the characteristics of a typical Gray Luvisol. Smectite and to a lesser extent mica were dominant in the clay fraction of the Bt. Pedoturbation appears to have caused the disruption and incorporation of argillans into the soil matrix. -from Authors
