Abstract

Kireçtaşları üzerinde oluşmuş olan toprakların ana materyallerinin oluşumu karmaşık bir durum arzeder. Bunun sebebi, kireçtaşlarının tecezziye uğradıkları zaman çok az miktarda erimeyen bir artık bırakmaları ve bu artığın genellikle suda eriyen kısımla beraber ortamdan uzaklaştırılmalarıdır. Bu nedenle, kireçtaşları üzerindeki toprakların oluşumunda, taşınmış ve birikmiş materyallerin önemli bir rolü vardır. Bu materyaller direk olarak kireç taşlarının tecezzisinden oluşabileceği gibi ince toz, lös ve volkanik materyaller gibi rüzgarlarla taşınmış da olabilir.

Formation of the Parent Materials in Soils over Limestone Terrains

Abstract

Derivation of the parent material in soils over limestone terrains is a complex process. It is because limestone usually gives a small amount of insoluble residue, and the insoluble residue is usually eroded away along with dissolved material. Therefore, on limestone terrains drift material plays an important role on the formation of soils. This drift material can be originated from the weathering of limestone directly or/and can be an airborne material, such as dust, loess and volcanic ash originating from different sources.

Keywords

Parent Material, Limestone, insoluble residue
