e/amples, claci1cation and pod:oli:ation (ta$le ?.1) operate concurrently in
certain $oralfs (gray *ooded soils). ) gi#en procces may tend to maintain the
soil in its current condition or it may tend to change the soil. Some processes,
such as crystal gro*th in a #oid in the interior of a large $oulder and mo#ement
of 3uids inside a large tree root or in a hi$ernating rodent in a soil, are remote
from the acti#e part of the soil and hence, e#en though they take place *ithin
the soil, may $e e/cluded from the long list of soilforming processes. On the

3uids $et*een soil and root hairs, and e/change of gases $et*een dormant
rodents and the soil atmosphere are intimate parts of the processes of soil
genesis. -eochemical *eathering of minerals (2hap.4) is a geologic process in
the formation of initial material of soil and continues in the soil pro1le *here it is
considered to $e a process of soil formation, that is, pedochemical *eathering
(2hap.4). 4edogenic processes include gains and losses of materials from a soil
$ody in accordance *ith the degradational, aggradational, or intermediate
geomorphic character of the site as *ell as translocation *ithin a soil $ody.
) soil, like a house, is put together or dismantled $y speci1c processes. "n #ie* of
the more disorderly and in1nitely more complicated course of soil formation, one
might $etter compare soil formation to the collapse and gradual disintegration,
under in3uence of numerous organisms, of a com$ined chemical storehouse and
natural history museum. .ar$ut (1&3?) suggested that no$ody has e#er seen a
mature soil from in toto. Cet *e do o$ser#e some processes in operation such as
the cracking of clayey soils during dry periods and the incorporation of plants
de$ris into soil $y earth*orms and ants.
+he possi$le num$er of pedogenic e#ents and com$inations and interactions
$et*een them in soils is staggering. )lthough la$oratory e/periments can
demonstrate that speci1c processes can produce speci1c soil features, the actual

soil features are ephemeral, others enduring. ) relati#ely permanent kroto#ina

Ses8uio/ide concretions and nodules may last for millennia in soils. On the other

matter of days or hours.
Work accomplished $y geologic agencies in forming initial materials has
in3uenced their mineralogy and te/ture (Simonson 1&?&). Soils may de#elop
much more rapidly in deep, loose clastic deposits than in solid $edrock. "n each
principal kind of soil, discussed in later chapters, processes of soil formation
occur in uni8ue proportions, intensities, and se8uences. (Dpedologic hal3ifeE). For
e/ample, car$onate concretions are a$undant and lasting in )ridisols (5esert
soils), persist in small num$ers under the clay pan of some al$a8ualfs (4lanosols)
in humid temperate regions, $ut are a$sent in associated of pedogenic processes

1&?(, 1&@1, 1&(G) are kno*n $y pedological terms such as pod:oli:ation and
claci1cation ( 6ellogg 1&3@) (+a$el ?.1). Fundamental pedogenic processes
include $oth generali:ations and speci1c su$di#isions of these.
General Fundamental Pedogenic Processes and Conditions -eneral
fundamental pedogenic processes and conditions (see +a$le ?.1) pro#ide a
frame*ork for later consideration of more speci1c reaction and processes.
+*o o#erlapping trends in soil de#elopment are hori:onation and haploidi:ation.
A
!ori:onation (!ole 1&@1) includes the proanisotropic processes and conditions $y
*hich initial materials are di0erentiated into soil pro1les *ith many hori:ons (as
in 5 pro1les of <orthcote 1&@?). We think of the Spodosol (4od:ol) pro1le (GEA
%hir2) as $eing a hori:onated soil (Fig. ?.1). pronounced hori:onation of some
soils is chie3y mineralogical and may not $e #isi$le to the o$ser#er of a freshly
e/posed pro1le. !aploidi:ation includes proisotropic processes and conditions $y
*hich hori:onation is inhi$ited or decelerated or $y *hich hori:ons are mi/ed or
distur$ed. We think of a Hertisol (-rumusolB %lack 2otton soil) pro1le *ith only )
2 hori:onation as $eing haploid or simple (= soil pro1les of <orthcote 1&@?). )
#ertisol may $e 1G.GGG years old (+horp 1&@?), *hereas a Spodosol may $e no
older than A,A?G years (Fran:meier and Whiteside 1&@3a, 1&@3$). "t may $e
concluded that haploidi:ation is at least as important a general process or
condition as hori:onation.
!elati"el# Speci$c Fundamental Pedogenic Processes 4rocesses of soil
formation include (1) additions of organic and mineral materials to the soil as
solids, li8uids, and gases, (A) losses of these from the soil, (3) translocations of
materials from one point to another *ithin the soil, and (4) transformation of
mineral and organic su$stances *ithin the soil (Simonson 1&?&).
+he list of terms in ta$le ?.1 $egins *ith those that related to item 3, a$o#e.
Evaluation and illuvation (*ords analogous to emigration and immigration) are
phases of translocation distinguished as a se8uence of mo#ement from one part
(usually a hori:on) to another in a soil pro1le. .ore than half of the terms relate
to translocation *ithin a soil $ody. +*o aspect of elu#iation are mo$ili:ation and
translocation. "llu#iation in#ol#es the same translocation processes and their
interruption $y immo$ili:ation of material in a soil hori:on.
Leaching is analogous to elu#iation $y solution $ut connotes remo#al from the
entire solum, although it is common to speak of a leached hori:on. "t is a primary
process, prere8uisite is many soils to translocation of colloids. 2alcium is

part of the lo* mo$ility of these constituents. 5epth of leaching of car$onates in soil
pro1les is of 1rst importance in landscapes originally $lanketed *ith calcareous materials
such as limestone, dolomitic sandstone, loess, and glacial drift.
Enrichment may $e *ith respect to hori:ons $ut is usually taken in the sense of the entire
soil recei#ing material from surrounding pedons as in depressional parts of the landscape
or $y air from remote areas. =nder a humid temperate climate, such soils in areas of
slightly leached initial material are typically enriched in palnt nutrients and car$onate $y
laterally mo#ing *ater from surrounding areas. "n highly leached terrains *ithout
calcareous or fertile initial materials, the depressional soils are typically not eriched, $ut
rather are the most acid and leached of the entire landscape.
Surfcial erosion refers to lateral remo#al of surface layers of soil as $y raindrop splash,
runo0 *aters, *ind, soli3uction, creep, and other processes of mass*asting.
Cumulization (Fr. CumulusB to heap) is o0ered as a term to e/press the accumulation of
mineral material into the surface of the soil $y either air or *ater. "n fact, this may $e
considered a geogenic rather than a pedogenic process. +he e0ects of this process are
most e#ident in depressional areas *here material eroded from soils upslope has
accumulated.
Decalcifcation is speci1cally used for the elu#iation of car$onates *ithin a soil $ody. +he
process may lead to the complete remo#al of car$onates from the entire pro1le, as is
common in more humid areas, or $e accompanied $y claci1cation, *hich is the
accumulation of car$onates commonly o$ser#ed in more arid regions. +he general
