Formation and Mineralogy of Soils Developed on Different Geological Parent Materials at Different Soil Temperature and Moisture Regimes
Abstract
This study was conducted in six soil profiles to evaluate soil formation and to determine the
dominant clay minerals of soils which are formed on different geological parent materials and
different soil moisture and temperature in Ağlasun (Burdur), Kepez (Antalya), Sandıklı
(Afyonkarahisar), Aksu (Isparta) ve Buldan (Denizli) districts. It was determined that the profiles
were in mesic and thermic temperature regimes, while they are in xeric and ustic moisture regimes in
the study area. While the five of profiles consist of sedimentary rocks which were different geological
age and composition, the last profiles was consisted of metamorphic rocks. It was found that the
defined profiles belonged to Inceptisols (4), Mollisol and Alfisol soil orders and in these profiles,
ochric and mollic surface horizons and cambic, calcic and argillic subsurface distinctive horizons were
defined. In the Inceptisol order, calcification, decalcification, rubification and podzolization; in the
Mollisol soil order, calcification, melanization; in the Alfisol order, rubification processes were found
to be effective separately or in different combinations, depending on main material and deposition
positions of profiles. Smectite was found to be dominant in profiles where they were relatively low
drainage base position. It was determined that illite-smectite intermediate layers minerals were
dominant in other profiles which were sedimentary origin. It was also determined that the kaolinite
mineral was accompanied weathering products of gneiss parent materials.
