Clay soil is a type of soil made up of small, fine, sticky particles. It has high water-holding capacity but can be prone to compaction and poor drainage.
A floodplain is an area that is built up by rich fertile soil left by river floods. This nutrient-rich soil is ideal for agriculture and is replenished each time the river floods, making it a productive and valuable area for farming.
The C horizon in soil is typically composed of partially weathered parent material, such as bedrock or unconsolidated sediment. It is the layer of soil closest to the bedrock and contains little to no organic matter.
The part of a soil profile that is made up of partly weathered rock material is known as the regolith. This layer typically consists of broken rock fragments mixed with soil particles and is an important component in soil formation.
Approximately 58% of soil organic matter is made up of carbon.
