Subsoil Carbonate
Department for Environment and Water
Fine carbonates in soil reduce nutrient availability to plants, while hard carbonate (e.g. rubble or hard pans) can restrict root growth and soil waterholding capacity. Mapping... -
Soil Water Erosion Potential
Department for Environment and Water
Water erosion potential, based on Soil Landscape Map Units of Southern South Australia, describes the susceptibility of land to sheet or rill erosion due to overland flow of... -
Subsurface Soil Acidity (ASRIS)
Department for Environment and Water
Soils are classified according to the pH of the subsurface layer. Subsurface soil refers to the layer immediately below the surface, and typically has a depth range of 10-20... -
Soil Salinity - Non-watertable
Department for Environment and Water
Non-watertable salinity (or dry saline land) is where soil contains elevated levels of soluble salts that are not associated with a watertable. Mapping shows the degree of non-... -
Soil Water Repellence
Department for Environment and Water
Water repellence, or non-wetting, due to coating of soil particles by waxy materials from the breakdown of plant debris can result in water beading on the surface, uneven... -
Soil Salinity - Watertable induced
Department for Environment and Water
This assessment refers to salinity which is linked to watertables. Soluble salts in soils affect plant growth by restricting water uptake. Salinity has varying degrees of... -
Inherent Soil Fertility
Department for Environment and Water
Inherent fertility is a relative indicator of the soil's capacity to retain and release nutrients for uptake by plants, and is associated with clay and organic matter content.... -
Depth to Hard Rock (soils)
Department for Environment and Water
Hard rock is basement rock or bedrock that is too hard to dig with hand tools (and does not include hardpans). Mapping shows the average estimated depth to hard rock, while... -
Soil Acidity
Department for Environment and Water
Soil acidity mapping highlights land where acidification due to normal farming practices is, or could become, a significant problem. Mapping shows surface and subsoil acidity,... -
Structure of Subsoil (degree of limitation)
Department for Environment and Water
Structure of subsoil provides an indication of impediments to root, and hence plant, growth due to poorly structured subsoils. Mapping shows the most limiting subsoil structure... -
Physical Condition of the Soil
Department for Environment and Water
Physical condition of soil provides an integrated view of various physical impediments to plant growth associated with surface soils, subsoils and other limitations (e.g.... -
