example 12 coarse-silty,
mixed, superactive, frigid Calcic Haploxeroll
(Rexburg
series)
These soils are formed in a thick deposit of
calcareous loess. Calcium carbonate has been
leached deeper in the profile, creating calcic
horizons. The cold, dry climate has slowed soil
development and very little neoformation or
subsoil accumulation of clay has taken place.
This soil is related to the Palouse series (see Image 14) of
Washington and Idaho; however, because of a
warmer and wetter climate, the Palouse series
contains nearly twice as much clay.
