Abstract/Description: | The field morphology rating scale was used to compare adjacent horizons with each other to give a comparison of the relative distinctness of horizons or to compare horizons in the solam with the C-horizon to give a relative profile development in soils occurring on alluvial landscape of Siwalik Hills. Relative horizon distinctness (RHD) in soil ranged from 1-14. The RHD of young undifferentiated soils varied according to consistence, coarse fragments and the nature of horizon boundary in the solum, whereas the same for older well developed soils varied according to colour, texture, structure and consistence in the profile. Relative profile development (RPD) of the younger soil developed on unstable landforms were low and maximum values were observed in A-horizon, while the values were higher in the soils developed on stable landforms and maximum values were in B-horizon. |
