Answer:

The most accurate term for what you describe is simply soil formation, but there are related terms. Soil genesis is soil formation with emphasis on how a soil has originated. Soil morphology refers to how soils change with time. There are individual processes that have names as well. Clay illuviation is the name for the movement of clay minerals into a soil horizon. Cumulation is the heaping and simultaneous formation of soils with deposition. Alluviation is the process of sand, silt and clay deposition with water movement.

Answer:

Soil minerals form the basis of soil. They are produced from rocks (parent material) through the processes of weathering and natural erosion. Water, wind, temperature change, gravity, chemical interaction, living organisms and pressure differences all help break down parent material.

Additional★ These soil processes can be considered in the following four groups: additions, losses, transformations, and translocations. This multimedia website has been developed for postsecondary students enrolled in natural sciences courses that incorporate soil formation and classification.
