Physical properties of soils: compressibility, temperature, consistence, permeability, porosity, density, color, electrical resistivity, texture, structure, water absorptivity.

Soil characteristics are features or properties of a soil. These include the soil's color, texture, structure, drainage class, soil horizons, and the presence or absence of the many things we might find in soils.
Soil structure affects the characteristics of soil in many ways. Some soil is not good for farming if it is too rocky. Other soil is perfect for farming and needs little more than regular tending to yield good crops. Different soils yield different organisms as well.

A disturbed sample is one in which the structure of the soil has been changed sufficiently that tests of structural properties of the soil will not be representative of in-situ conditions, and only properties of the soil grains (e.g., grain size distribution, Atterberg limits, and possibly the water content) can be accurately determined. An undisturbed sample is one where the condition of the soil in the sample is close enough to the conditions of the soil in-situ to allow tests of structural properties of the soil to be used to approximate the properties of the soil in-situ.
