Aridisol, n. Soil Sci.|əˈrɪdɪsɒl|
[f. arid a. + -i- + -sol.]
A soil of an order comprising usually saline and alkaline soils containing very little organic matter, characteristic of arid regions.
1960Soil Classification: 7th Approximation (U.S. Soil Conservation Service) 156/1 Included in Aridisols are most soils that have been called Desert Soils and Red Desert soils [etc.]. 1972J. G. Cruickshank Soil Geogr. iv. 142 Some Aridisols do have a clay-rich sub-surface horizon, but most are composed of larger size particles and stones. 1980E. A. FitzPatrick Soils v. 138 Some Aridisols occur in semiarid areas because the soils are slowly permeable and most of the water is lost by run-off. |
