Final Exam Questions

Could anyone tell me what these soils are? LF (5-0 cm)

Ah (0-8 cm) 
Ck1 (8-43 cm) 
Ck2 (43-100 cm) 

(mixed forest under cold and humid climate, good natural drainage) and... L (8-6 cm) 4

F (6-0 cm) 
C1 (0-3 cm) 
C2 (3-18 cm) 
C3 (18-65 cm) 
(tundra under extremely cold and humid climate, good natural drainage)

Thank you!

Both of those soils are Regosols, because they do not have B horizon since soil formation is limited in a cold climate.

Hi Maja,

Is absence of B horizon alone enough to classify a soil as Regosol? If, say, there is no B horizon but A horizon is >10cm thick, or there is no B horizon and A horizon is thin but C horizon is gleyed, would these soils still be classified as Regosol?

Thank you
