Soils of Humid Tropical Regions
Soils of Humid Tropical RegionsIn the humid tropics, the minerals in the parent rock generally undergo strong chemical weathering. ... Chunks or blocks excavated from such soils and dried in the sun may harden to form bricks; hence, these soils have been called laterites, from the Latin word later, meaning “brick”.
Ultisols
UltisolsUltisols: These weathered soils are rich in the clay mineral kaolinite and form in warm humid climates with distinctive wet-dry seasons. They zone into Oxisols on some islands when rainfall decreases.
Scientists attribute soil formation to the following factors: Parent material, climate, biota (organisms), topography and time.
