PREFACE and COVER This is the fourth edition of Florida Hydric Soils Handbook; the first was published in 1990 by Florida Association of Environmental Soil Scientists (FAESS) which was founded in 1975. The members of FAESS began, in 1984, working on the concepts of hydric soils and the procedures to identify them. This fourth edition only remotely resembles the first edition and presents the current hydric soil knowledge which is to a large degree the results of the more than two decades of effort in the hydric soil arena by FAESS members. This book is dedicated to the unnamed members of FAESS, the true trailblazers, and users of this book owe them a large debt of gratitude.

FACTORS OF SOIL FORMATION AND FLORIDA SOILS Frank C. Watts and Oren C. Reedy

Soils consist of natural bodies that occur on a landform within a landscape that have properties resulting from the integrated effects of climate and living organisms, acting on a parent material, as conditioned by relief, over a period of time (Jenny, 1941). Each soil, therefore, has a unique morphology that is in dynamic equilibrium with its environment. Knowledge of individual soil properties and precise occurrence of the soil on associated landforms enables us to predict soil behavior under defined management practices and to transfer these predictions to other areas of similar soils. Soil surveys are the only means available for systematically projecting land-use results from one soil area to another.

FACTORS OF SOIL FORMATION

The kind of soil that forms in a given area depends on five major factors (Jenny, 1941, Jenny, 1980). These factors are parent material; climate under which the soil material has existed since accumulation; living organisms, or plant and animal life on and in the soil; relief, or lay of the land; and length of time that these factors of soil formation have acted on the soil material.

The five factors of soil formation are interdependent; each modifies the effects of the others. As a soil forms, it is influenced by the five factors, but one factor may have caused the major differences in the soils in some places. A variation in one or more of the factors results in the formation of a different soil.

Parent Material

The Florida Plateau consists of a core of metamorphic rocks, presumably the continuation of Paleozoic rocks of the Piedmont region. During the Eocene epoch shallow seas, combined with an environment similar to today's Bahaman Banks, resulted in deposits of very pure calcium and magnesium carbonates. Eocene age limestones occur at varying depths throughout the entire state. Additional limestone sediments and clastic sediments derived from the erosion of Appalachia (an ancient Paleozoic land mass) were deposited on this carbonatic plateau during the Oligocene, Miocene, Pliocene, and Pleistocene epochs. Deposits in Florida that have been assigned to the Pleistocene vary greatly in extent and composition. In the southern part of the state they are chiefly limestone derived sediments; elsewhere they are predominantly siliceous sandy materials or finer textured stratified marine sediments.

A very gentle doming (Ocala uplift) has resulted in rocks of north-central Florida occurring closer to the surface than corresponding beds in other parts of the state. During the Pleistocene the Florida Plateau was alternately an exposed land surface or covered by shallow seas. Waves and currents of these shallow seas swept thin veneers of mostly quartz sands with varying amounts of clay and shell fragments over the older formations. As a result, most soils in Florida are sandy and some have loamy and clayey argillic (subsoil) horizons.

Soil parent materials in Florida differ somewhat in physical, chemical, and mineralogical properties. Major physical differences, such as amounts of sand, silt, and clay, can be observed in the field. Chemical and

2

mineralogical soil properties that affect soil formation are usually determined by laboratory analysis. Many differences are inherited from the original deposition of parent materials. Organic soils occurring in Florida have formed from highly decomposed vegetative materials in depressions and on flood plains.

Relief

Relief, or topography, affects soil formation because it influences microclimate and water relationships. Soil temperature is influenced by altitude and by the orientation of slopes toward or away from the sun (aspect). Relief controls drainage, runoff, erosion, soil fertility, and vegetation. Soil formation is slower on steeper slopes because soil material and organic matter tend to gravitate down slope.

Relief has a significant effect on the soils. Because the parent materials of most of the soils in Florida are marine deposits, the soils tend to be sandy. Because sandy soils have low available water capacity and easily become doughty, most of the water available to plants comes from saturated soil. As a result, the depth to seasonal saturation becomes extremely important in determining the type of vegetation that grows in a particular area.

Landscapes in Florida are Coastal Lowlands and Coastal Uplands. The Coastal Lowlands generally occur at elevations that are less than 100 feet above mean sea level while the Coastal Uplands generally occur above these elevations. Major landforms of the Coastal Lowlands are; Tidal marshes, depressions, flood-plains, flats, flatwoods, rises, and knolls. The major landforms of the Coastal Uplands are creeks, depressions, flood plains, rises, rivers, streams, terraces, and uplands (see chapter “Landscapes and Major Landforms of Florida” in this publication for a more in depth discussion of landscapes and landforms).

Depth to seasonal saturation affects internal drainage. On sandy rises and knolls landforms, where seasonal saturation is deep and the soils are highly leached, soluble plant nutrients, colloidal clays, and organic matter are carried rapidly downward through the sandy soil. In flatwoods landforms seasonal high saturation is commonly 0.5 to 1.5 feet below the surface, but during extended droughty periods it drops below 5 feet. Organic matter in a complex with some iron but mostly aluminum is translocated down a short distance and forms a spodic horizon (organic stained subsoil), or a Bh horizon. This horizon is locally referred to as a hardpan. On flats landforms seasonal high saturation is commonly at or very near the surface. In poorly drained mineral soils organic matter content is generally considerably higher than in better drained soils, particularly in surface horizons. In flood plains or depressions landforms, where water is normally above the surface, muck accumulates under the abundant vegetation. As these plants die, they accumulate in water where oxygen is excluded causing slow decay. The amount of muck that accumulates depends primarily on the amount of vegetation and on the depth and duration of standing water. In some wet areas, a thick dark layer high in organic matter has formed instead of a muck surface over the mineral soil.

Topographic relief is the most significant of the five factors of soil formation as it relates to the formation of hydric soils.

Climate

Climate is probably Florida's greatest natural resource. Summers are long, warm, and relatively humid. Winters, although interspersed with periodic invasions of cold air from the north, are usually mild due to the southerly latitude and relatively warm adjacent seawaters. The Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico act as cooling agents in the summer and warming agents in the winter. Average temperatures are about 15oC (59oF) in January and 27oC (81oF) in July; however, no place on the mainland is entirely safe from freezing for more than 24 hours. Some winters pass without widespread freezing in the southern part of the state; whereas other winters may bring several severe cold waves.

3

Precipitation in Florida is quite varied, both in annual amounts and in seasonal distribution. It usually averages 1270 mm (50 in) to 1524 mm (60 in). Generally, more than one-half of the total rainfall occurs during the 4-month period from June to September. Winter rainfall is associated with approaching cold fronts, whereas most summer rainfall is from convective thundershowers. Long summer rains are usually associated with tropical disturbances.

Due to the warm, moist climate of Florida, biological activity and chemical reactions involved in soil formation processes that continue throughout the year resulting in rapid organic matter decomposition on flatwoods, rises, and knolls. Organic matter accumulates in depressions and flood plains due to the ponded water slowing the decomposition of organic matter. Intense rains leach most soils of plant nutrients resulting in highly weathered acid soils. Fine particles of clay and sometimes organic matter are translocated downward, eventually forming subsoil horizons.

Climate is fairly uniform throughout Florida; therefore, climate has not been a major factor contributing to differences among soils.

Living Organisms

Plants, animals and microorganism, such as bacteria and fungi, are important in the formation of soils. Plants furnish organic matter that decomposes, giving a dark color to the surface, and supplying the soil with plant nutrients. Trees and other plants take nutrients from the soil and store them in their roots, stems, leaves, and other parts. When these plants or plant parts die, microorganisms decompose them and the nutrients are returned to the soil. In addition, many metabolic processes of bacteria and fungi release organic acids and other materials that affect the process of soil formation. Earthworms, ants, and other animals mix the soil and influence porosity and other soil properties.

Native vegetation has had a major influence on soil genesis. Unless drastically disturbed by man, soil and natural vegetation have a close relationship, which is readily apparent in Florida. The poorly and very poorly drained soils are in flats, depressions, and flood plains landforms. Xerophytic communities of pines and oaks have somewhat poorly, moderately well, and excessively drained soils on rises, knolls, and upland landforms and pine-palmetto communities dominate the poorly drained soils on the flatwoods landforms. The natural relationship between the soil and the native plants is sometimes disturbed by human activities. Clearing, logging, and burning, for example, have disrupted the natural succession of plants in some areas.

Time

Time is an important factor in soil formation. The slow physical and chemical changes are brought about by climate, living organisms, and relief. The length of time needed to convert raw geologic material into soil varies according to the nature of the material and the interaction of other factors. Some basic minerals, from which soils are formed, weather fairly rapidly, while other minerals are chemically inert and show little change over long periods of time. The translocation (leaching) of fine particles in the soil to form subsoils is variable under different conditions, but the process always takes a relatively long period of time.

In Florida, the dominant geologic material is inert sands. These sands are almost pure quartz and are highly resistant to weathering. The finer textured silt and clay fractions are predominantly composed of quartz, vermiculite-chlorite intergrade, and kaolinite. They are the product of deposition or earlier weathering. Relatively little geologic time has elapsed since the material, in which the soils of Florida formed, was laid down or emerged from the sea. The age of a soil refers to the degree of maturity of that soil, not to chronological or geological time. Because soils are influenced by the other four factors of soil formation, they mature at different rates. Immature soils (soils that show little if any horizonation or development of soil layers)

4

may be on older landscapes than mature soils that show distinct horizonation. Examples of this situation are common throughout Florida.

MAN MADE SOILS

In many areas in recent times, human activity has become a major factor in soil genesis. Tillage and management practices have altered soil structure, porosity, and other physical properties because of the mixing and compaction of the upper part of the soil profile. The addition of lime, fertilizer, and other chemicals has altered chemical properties. Intensive use has sometimes caused removal of soil horizons through erosion and/or compaction of the surface. This process is often accompanied by increased deposition on flood plains and in depressions. In many places, these new soils do not have the normal diagnostic horizons or layers attributed to natural soil forming processes. Soils of urban areas have been thoroughly covered by soil from other locations (fill material) or altered by bulldozers (heavy equipment) during construction of homes, buildings, streets, or other structures. In some places, soils have been altered to support activities on the surface. Little attention has been paid to the physical, chemical, and mineralogical properties of the underlying layers. Such neglect has often resulted in problems that have been costly and difficult to remedy.

FLORIDA SOILS

The entire state of Florida is located within the Coastal Plain physiographic region (Carlisle, 1981). Major areas are as follows: Western Highlands, a region that consists of broad gently rolling uplands trenched by frequent, narrow, steep-walled stream valleys that occur west of the Apalachicola River. Some areas have sinkholes caused by the dissolution of limestone that occurs relatively close to the surface. Others areas have narrow, largely eroded plateaus. The highest natural elevations of Florida occur in this region; Central Ridge, a region that extends through central Florida from the Georgia border south to a point northwest of Lake Okeechobee, consists of rolling uplands interspersed with many depressions and lakes; and Coastal Lowlands, a region that occurs from the northeastern corner of Florida around the southern tip and west along the coast to the Alabama state line, extend inward 48 km (30 mi) to 96 km (60 mi) along the Atlantic, and 16 km (10 mi) to 64 km (40 mi) along the Gulf coast. This region has soils of the flatwoods, organic origin, recent limestone origin, and miscellaneous coastal land types.

Climatic conditions in Florida have been favorable for development of highly weathered, leached, acid soils low in natural fertility. Wetness, extreme sandiness, and a relatively flat topography are commonly occurring features. Major soil areas of Florida and associated land use are shown in Figure 1.

Of the 12 Soil Orders (Soil Survey Staff, 1999), only 5--Andosols, Aridisols, Gelisols, Oxisols, and Vertisols -- are not recognized in Florida. Spodosols are most extensive in area, followed in descending order of extent by Entisols, Ultisols, Histosols, Alfisols, Inceptisols, and Mollisols. Areas of Inceptisols and Mollisols are of insufficient size to be shown on a map of this scale (Figure 1.). Also not shown are the many widely interspersed areas of Alfisols that occur in southern Florida. Within these Orders approximately 19 Suborders, 39 Great Groups, 100 Subgroups, 300 Families, and 500 Series are recognized. New soil Series continue to be added when needed as the progressive soil survey of Florida, currently 99% finished, approaches completion. The various differentiae and criteria in soil classification and interpretation are being tested continuously; therefore, slight changes are inevitable as new knowledge accumulates concerning physical, chemical, and mineralogical soil properties. Seven soil orders recognized in Florida are (as stated above) are Alfisols, Entisols, Histosols, Inceptisols, Mollisols, and Spodosols. Alfisols have medium to high amounts of bases in their loamy and clayey argillic horizons (subsoils). Entisols have had little or no soil development. Histosols have very high organic matter content and thick accumulation of organic matter.

FORMATION OF HYDRIC SOILS AND REDOXIMORPHIC FEATURES

Frank C. Watts and Michael J. Vepraskas Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and subsequent court cases made it necessary for the federal government to define more precisely what constituted wetlands. In response to these legal developments the National Technical Committee for Hydric Soils, which consists of members from universities, Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), US Forest Service, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Bureau of Land Management, and US Army Corps of Engineers (COE), addressed the soils component of wetlands.

FORMATION OF HYDRIC SOILS

Historical Background

The concept of hydric soils is relatively new to soil science. The term "hydric soil" was coined in the late 1970's to designate soils that formed in wetlands; however, since the beginning of the 20th century it was known that wetland soils had different morphologies than upland soils. The term gley was used in Russia more than 100 years ago to describe the gray colors so often found in wet areas (Glinka, 1914). American farmers of the same era described such soils as crayfishy (Hilgard, 1906). During the first three quarters of the 20th century, however, most soils research in the United States was oriented toward drier soils that were usable for agriculture. Only in the past couple of decades, when federal and state laws were enacted to protect wetlands, have these seasonally wet soils received enough attention to merit a special designation of their own.

Formation

Saturation and/or inundation (flooding or ponding) occur in depressions, flood plains, flats, marshes, seeps, and related landforms. When water resides in biologically active soils of these landforms long enough, respiring microbes and plants deplete the soil of free oxygen and the soils become anaerobic. Soils that are kept wet for long periods because of artificial measures are included in the concept of hydric soils. Soils with artificially modified hydrology are also hydric if the soil was hydric in an unaltered state.

The most important difference between hydric and nonhydric soils is obviously that hydric soils are wetter. However, water’s major role in soil formation is an indirect one because water helps to form hydric soils by excluding atmospheric oxygen from the soil. When oxygen is lacking, soil microorganisms respire anaerobically and cause a number of chemical changes to occur in the soil that include dissolution of iron oxide minerals, accumulation of organic matter, and the creation of hydrogen sulfide gas (sensed as a rotten egg odor). The differences in morphology between hydric and nonhydric soils are not due to differences in water content as much as they are due to differences in the chemistry of anaerobic or reduced soils as compared to the chemistry of oxidized soils. Anaerobiosis describes microbiological activity during conditions in which molecular oxygen is virtually absent from the soil. Reduction is when the redox potential (Eh) is below the ferric/ferrous iron threshold as adjusted for pH. This is the point when the transformation of ferric iron (Fe3+) to ferrous iron (Fe2+) occurs. Anaerobiosis occurs at a higher Eh than reduction.

8

The morphological features of hydric soils usually include carbon features (accumulation and/or differential removal of organic carbon materials) or redoximorphic features (accumulation and/or depletion of iron or manganese). Other less common morphological features are the result of the accumulation of marl and the reduction of sulfur compounds. While it is unknown whether anaerobiosis and/or reductions form all the carbon features and marl, redoximorphic features, by definition, form under reducing conditions. The one sulfur hydric soil indicator (presence of hydrogen sulfide) forms under highly reducing conditions.

CARBON FEATURES

Organic Soil Material

The three types of organic material are muck (sapric material), mucky peat (hemic material), and peat (fibric material). Muck is so well decomposed that plant forms are not recognizable after rubbing in over 80% of the material. Muck is generally black, has a greasy smooth feel, and sand grains should not be evident. Peat has mostly brown hues and is relatively undecomposed organic matter with most of the organic material allowing for identification of plant parts. Mucky peat has reddish hues and decomposition intermediate between that of peat and muck. See Glossary for complete definitions and required amounts of organic carbon.

Organic matter accumulates when deposition of fallen leaves, pine needles, bark, and other organic materials exceeds their decomposition. These organic accumulations have been called duff (SCSA, 1982). Over time these leaves, pine needles, bark, etc., accumulate and are matted and held together by fungal hyphae and fine roots so that this layer can be removed intact from the surface using a shovel to cut out a slice or section. This layer has been called a root or leaf mat (Florida Soil Survey Staff, 1992), but is peat or mucky peat (USDA-NRCS, 2006). Peat and mucky peat consist of undecomposed organic matter and moderately decomposed organic matter, respectively, that is usually reddish or brown in color. The thickness depends on the nature of the vegetation and/or rate of removal through disturbance, decay, or fire. Peat and mucky peat occur on both hydric and nonhydric soils. Increased amounts of residual decomposed (black) materials are usually associated with hydric soils. Layers of peat and mucky peat may be thicker on nonhydric soils. When peat and mucky peat decay on upland soils, the well-decomposed organic matter is removed (leached) by rainwater moving through the soil. The resulting mineral surface layer has a salt and pepper appearance. However, in wet soils seasonal saturation causes the well-decomposed black organic matter to accumulate on and/or in the mineral surface layer. The lower boundary of peat and mucky peat layers contact mineral soil material, mucky mineral soil material, or muck. Peat and mucky peat layers can be easily removed intact and have: a) plant remains that are readily identifiable, b) massive or no structure, and c) common to many, medium to coarse roots. Hydric soil determinations are made below peat and mucky peat layers where the layers are not thick enough to constitute a histic epipedon of a Histosol.

Organic materials more than 16 inches thick are Histosols (Soil Survey Staff, 1999), and a histic epipedon has organic materials between 8 and 16 inches thick. Soils with different thicknesses of organic material on the surface may have similar hydrologic regimes if rates of deposition or removal differ. In Florida, the presence of muck in a layer on the surface, or in discrete bodies in the surface layer will identify the soil as a hydric soil on flats and in depressions. On flood plains, muck in stratified material near the surface will identify the soil as a hydric soil.

Mucky Mineral Material

Soils with shorter durations of anaerobiosis than in organic soils often lack enough accumulated carbon to meet the requirements for organic soil material. The term mucky is used as the USDA textural modifier for these mineral soils. The organic carbon content is at least 5% and ranges to as high as 18%. The percentage of organic carbon required is dependent upon the clay content of the soil, the higher the clay content, the higher the organic carbon required to qualify as mucky mineral material (see the figure in the Glossary under the

9

definition of Organic Materials). An example is mucky fine sand, which has at least 5 percent but not more than about 12 percent organic carbon. Mucky mineral soils are best identified by rubbing wet soil between forefinger and thumb. After the second rub, mucky mineral material has a smooth greasy feel but feels gritty upon the third to fifth rub. Mucky mineral materials occurring as layers on the surface, or as discrete organic bodies (formerly accretions) in the surface layer, will identify the soil as a hydric soil. Some soils that are periodically inundated (flooded) and saturated for very long durations (more than 30 days) can develop stratified layers that are seen as thin bands of organic rich soil material layered with strata of organic depleted soil material within several inches of the surface. Organic matter accumulates in these saturated areas to form a mucky mineral texture or muck layer during periods of little flooding. During periods of flooding the water flow has sufficient velocity to carry soil materials (mostly sand in Florida) and when the water flow decreases the soil materials are deposited on top these organic layers. This results in stratified layers of mucky mineral texture or muck covered with thicker layers of deposited sandy soil materials.

The period long is defined as requiring 7 to < 30 days of saturation or inundation, and very long is defined as requiring more than 30 days of saturation or inundation (Schoenberger, 2002). See the chapter Florida’s Hydric Soils: A Guide to Their Recognition for a more thorough discussion of the indicators.

Other Carbon Features

Some hydric soils in Florida have an organic carbon content that is slightly less than that required for mucky mineral material. These hydric soils have a dark colored layer, usually starting at the soil surface, with at least 70% of the observed surface having visible soil particles (sand grains) that are covered, coated, or similarly masked (i.e. more black organic matter seen than white sand grains) with organic material. When a soil lacks the organic carbon content needed for mucky mineral material and the soil has gray to light gray splotches in a matrix of a darker gray, these splotches are called a stripped matrix. Anaerobic bacteria consume organic matter to derive energy for cell metabolism (growth); leaving splotches of lighter color and reduces iron from the oxidized state (reddish color) to the reduced state (color-less). Both C and Fe are then dispersed and diffused out of zone of reduction leaving light-colored splotches with diffuse boundaries in the darker matrix. Iron reduction and depletion will be discussed further in the section on redoximorphic features.

REDOXIMORPHIC FEATURES

Upon saturation of the soil, any oxygen that is trapped in the soil is rapidly consumed by respiring microbes. Microorganisms that are able to use substances other than oxygen for respiration soon dominate the microbial community. After the loss of oxygen (O2) to form water (H2O), anaerobiosis results in the reduction of nitrates (NO3-) to form nitrogen (N2) followed by manganese (Mn4+ to Mn2+), iron (Fe3+ to Fe2+), sulfates (SO4-) to form hydrogen sulfide (H2S), and carbon dioxide (CO2) to form methane (CH4). Conversely, as saturated soils become drier due to moisture loss, aerobic microorganisms become increasingly active and the reduced compounds are oxidized.

Reducing conditions affect the redox status of iron and manganese in the mineral fraction of the soil. Under reducing conditions iron changes from ferric (Fe3+) to ferrous (Fe2+) forms and manganese from manganic (Mn4+) to manganous (Mn2+). Oxidized forms of iron (Fe3+) and oxidized manganic forms of manganese (Mn4+) commonly occur together in soils. Manganic (Mn) is usually effervescent with hydrogen peroxide. Until more is known, the following guidelines should be used for the identification of the various combinations of oxidized iron and manganese oxides (Hurt, 2005):

10

Color and composition of iron and manganese oxides.

< 2 < 2 Manganese

3 3 Iron and Manganese

> 4 > 4 Iron

Reduced Fe2+ and Mn2+ forms are colorless and soluble. Therefore, when a soil has been saturated for a long period, the iron and manganese in it are reduced, dissolved in the saturating water, and moved (leached) through the soil. This causes the mineral material in the soil to turn less red and, usually grayer in color, and seen as the soil having a lower Munsell chroma. The natural color of sand, silt, and clay particles produces the gray color with the reduced Fe2+ form also having some coloring effect (Ponnamperuma, 1972 and Vepraskas, 1994). In Florida, except on flood plains of the Panhandle, redoximorphic manganese is relatively unimportant.

Terminology

During cycles of fluctuating saturation and repeated wetting and drying, some of the soluble Fe2+ iron migrates in solution through the soil to drier spots within the soil ( i.e. root channels, ped faces, etc.), is oxidized, and then precipitates. After many repetitions, enough iron is removed in the most reduced area for them to become gray and enough iron accumulates at the precipitation points for the soil to become visibly redder. These depletions and accumulations of iron are redox depletions and redox concentrations (Vepraskas, 1994; USDA-NRCS, 2006, and Soil Survey Staff, 1999). A special kind of redoximorphic feature is a reduced matrix. The term mottles is used to describe any color patterns that consist of two or more colors not the result of oxidation/reduction processes. Mottles form from accumulations of organic matter, carbonate, salt, or they are inherited from parent material.

Redox Depletions

Redox depletions occur as grayish zones of soil particles that have been stripped of iron oxide coatings. Where the volume of soil that is gray exceeds 50%, the matrix is said to have a gray matrix or iron depleted matrix. Usually an iron-depleted matrix reflects reducing conditions in loamy and clayey soil material, but may or may not reflect reducing conditions in sandy soil material (as discussed below). Generally, loamy and clayey soils with a depleted matrix with common distinct or prominent redox concentrations in the upper 10 inches are hydric soils.

In sandy soil material, the iron depletions form a stripped matrix where roots die and decompose in a saturated soil. The decomposition produces electrons that serve to reduce Fe3+ surrounding the root. Just as in other soils, the resulting Fe2+ is a soluble form of iron that is dispersed in solution, leached out by lateral flowing of water, and then creates light-colored splotches in the darker gray matrix. The splotches usually contain a black center that is a root residue. Where many roots die and decompose in this manner, the resulting splotches coalesce to form an almost continuous grayish colored stripped area.

Sandy Spodosols often have grayish subsurface layers (E horizons) that appear to fit the characteristics of an iron depleted matrix but do not always reflect reducing conditions. The E horizons in these soils are created by acid-leaching processes. In surface layers (A horizons), organic chelates bind with iron and aluminum oxides which dissolve in water and the dissolved material is leached downward through the soil by water until

11

it precipitates out in lower horizons. This process creates both the grayish E horizons that overlie the zone of accumulation seen as dark colored subsoil horizons (i.e. spodic {Bh} horizons). Most of the iron is removed from these E horizons and as a result redox concentrations do not usually occur. Soils with spodic horizons can be hydric soils, if they have black A horizons, mucky mineral textures, or muck formed by large amounts of organic C accumulation or one of the hydric soil indicators indicative of differential removal and accumulation of C (stripped matrix, polyvalue below surface, or thin dark surface).

Redox Concentrations

Redox concentrations occur as iron masses and/or pore linings. These masses are areas of accumulation in the soil matrix unrelated to structural surfaces in the soil such as cracks, root channels, ped faces, etc. Pore linings are iron accumulations on structural surfaces. Oxidized rhizospheres are pore linings that only develop along live roots of some hydrophytic plants. These plants transport oxygen from the atmosphere down to their roots. If the roots are in reduced soil with Fe2+ iron present, the Fe2+ iron will oxidize and precipitate at points along the root where the transported oxygen is released into the soil. Oxidized rhizospheres and pore linings are dominantly strong brown to yellowish red in color.

The chelation processes that results in the grayish E horizons and darkened Bh horizons discussed above may not occur in some sandy soil materials, and when it does not then iron concentrations may form. In addition, redox concentrations may not occur in sandy material because the soil material lacks structural surfaces necessary to stop the movement of the Fe2+ in solution so it can reoxidize.

Gleyed Colors

All soil materials that have colors on the gley pages of Munsell Soil Color Charts (Gretag Macbeth, 2000) are described as having gley (not gray) colors including soil material that has a hue of N and value 2 or 3. Gley colors (except those with hue of N) can develop when reduced iron (Fe2+) combines with an anion to form a new mineral. These minerals have not been well studied, but one such mineral has been called vivanite, an iron-phosphate mineral (Potsma, 1981). Some gleyed materials contain no reduced iron but the compounds that create the gley colors are not well understood.

Reduced Matrix

Some soils contain reduced iron because the Fe2+ has not been leached or otherwise transported from the soil. Gray and gleyed material that contains Fe2+, when exposed to air, can oxidize and the gley color is lost as it changes to a redder color. Such soil material is called a reduced matrix. Not all reduced matrices have a gley hue because the gley color only occurs when the reduced matrix combines with an anion such as CO32-, PO43-, or SO42- . For hydric soil evaluation, these reduced matrices are treated as iron depleted matrices discussed above.

Nodules and Concretions

When the processes of reduction and oxidization are repeated often enough, especially when wide ranges in conditions of saturation exist (repeated wetting and drying), plinthite nodules and concretions form as discrete bodies that can be removed intact from the soil (Schoenberger, et al, 2002). Plinthite forms initially as iron- manganese masses that are weakly cemented bodies of various shapes (commonly spherical or tubular). Nodules are cemented or hardened plinthite. Concretions are similar to nodules, except for the presence of visible, concentric layers around a point or line. Phosphate nodules (fragments of highly weathered parent material) are common in Florida. Iron-manganese masses should not be confused with the larger, redder, and firmer iron nodules associated with plinthite or with concretions that have sharp boundaries. Iron and manganese in various combinations form redoximorphic nodules and concretions; however, most commonly,

12

they are the result of past, not current, hydrologic cycles and are therefore relict. See the chapter Florida’s Hydric Soils: A Guide to Their Recognition for a more thorough discussion of relict morphology.

Old and New Terminology for Redoximorphic Features in Soils (Vepraskas, 1994, Schoenberger, et al, 2002 and USDA-NRCS, 2006); Old Term New Term Description Bright Redox An area of accumulation of iron due to the Mottle Concentration reduction/oxidation processes. Bright Iron Mass An area of accumulation of iron in the soil matrix, Mottle unrelated to surfaces of peds or other pores. Bright Pore Lining An area of accumulation of iron along a root pore, Mottle ped face, crack, or other structural surface. Oxidized Pore Lining An area of accumulation of iron along a live root. Rhizosphere Nodules and Nodules and Firm to extremely firm bodies of iron/manganese due to Concretions Concretions past reduction/oxidization processes and generally rounded. Grey Iron Depletion An area of low chroma and high value due to Mottle reduction/oxidization processes. Gray Iron Depleted Majority volume of soil has low chroma and high value due Matrix Matrix to reduction/oxidization processes. Gray Reduced Majority volume of soil has low chroma and high value due Matrix Matrix to reduction/oxidization processes and changed color upon exposure to air. Gleyed Iron Depleted Majority volume of soil has colors on gleyed page due to Matrix Matrix reduction/oxidization processes. Gleyed Reduced Majority volume of soil has colors on gleyed page due to Matrix Matrix reduction/oxidization processes and changes color upon exposure to air. Mottle Mottle An area with a color different from the matrix color not due to the processes of reduction/oxidization.

OTHER HYDRIC SOIL FEATURES

Sulfur

Sulfur occurs in soils most commonly in the oxidized sulfate (SO42+) form, and only in the wettest soils is this sulfate reduced to sulfide, dominantly hydrogen sulfide (H2S) which has a rotten egg odor. Tidal marshes are most commonly associated with reduced sulfur, but H2S can occur in other very wet soils where sulfate has been present. The rotten egg odor only develops in saturated and reduced soils, and is absent during extended dry periods.

Marl One additional morphology not associated with oxidation-reduction reactions but associated with hydric soils is the production of marl at the soil surface. Marl is a limnic material deposited in water that forms when algae precipitate calcium carbonate (CaCO3) as defined in Soil Taxonomy (Soil Survey Staff, 1999). In Florida, marl occurs from Indian River County to Collier and Monroe Counties (Noble, 1989). Mineralogical analyses have indicated that almost 100% of the soil minerals are calcite that had precipitated from water saturated with calcium bicarbonate. In fresh water environments, marl is formed when the land is flooded for several months each year in the summer (hydroperiod) followed by a number of dry months during the winter.

13

In saline environments, flooding is tidal and mimics the fresh water hydroperiods and dry periods. During the annual (or daily for saline environments) wet season when these lands are flooded, several hundred species of microalgae (periphyton) grow on the surface water (Ca2+ + 2HCO3 = CaCO3 + H2CO3). Periphyton growth produces marl. Flooding creates anaerobic conditions and increases the accumulation of organic matter. During the dry period, this organic matter is oxidized. The relative lengths of the dry and wet periods are approximately the same and therefore marl normally contains little organic matter and is mostly white in color. The rate of calcite mud (marl) production in present coastal areas, as measured by radiocarbon dating, has averaged 1.2 cm/100 years from 1000 years ago to the present. Generally, marl soils form a layer 5 to 120 cm thick above limestone bedrock (Hurt, 2005).

FLORIDA’S HYDRIC SOILS: A GUIDE TO THEIR RECOGNITION

G. Wade Hurt

In this chapter we discuss hydric soil terminology and hydric soil indicators used to identify and delineate hydric soils in the field.

HYDRIC SOILS

Hydric soils occupy specific landform positions and have features and properties unique to wetlands. Other soils occupy specific landform positions and have features and properties unique to uplands. These are nonhydric soils. Hydric Soil Terminology

We use several terms that are essential to describe specific processes used in hydric soil deliberations.

Some of these are: Hydric Soil Definition, Hydric Soil Criteria, Hydric Soil Lists, Hydric Soil Indicators, and, lastly, hydric soils (Mausbach, 1994; Hurt and Carlisle, 1997). Each term has a specific meaning and use honed from numerous deliberations of the National Technical Committee for Hydric Soils (NTCHS). All hydric soils must satisfy requirements of the Hydric Soil Definition. Hydric Soil Criteria are used to generate Hydric Soil Lists. Hydric Soil Lists contain a listing of soils that have a probability of being hydric. Hydric Soil Lists are not used to identify or delineate soils in the field; that must be done in situ. Hydric Soil Criteria and Hydric Soil Lists are used as off site assessment tools. Hydric Soil Indicators are primarily morphological features used for field identification of hydric soils. A hydric soil is a soil that meets the Hydric Soil Definition; presence of one of the Hydric Soil Indicators is evidence that the definition has been met. Hydric Soil Definition:

The Hydric Soil Definition (Federal Register, July 13, 1994) is: "A hydric soil is a soil that formed under conditions of saturation, flooding, or ponding long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part." This definition replaced the older version (USDA-SCS, 1991) and accomplished two things. First, a soil that is artificially drained or protected (ditches, levees, etc.) is a hydric soil if the soil in its undisturbed state meets the definition of a hydric soil. The hydric status of manipulated soils is based on best professional estimates of the properties thought to exist prior to manipulation. Second, the link between the definition and criteria was removed. Criteria and lists cannot be substituted for the definition.

15

Hydric Soil Criteria*

The Criteria for Hydric Soils (Federal Register, 2002) are: 1. All Histels except Folistels and all Histosols except Folists, or 2. Soils in Aquic suborders, great groups, or subgroups, Histoturbels great group, Albolls suborder, Pachic subgroups, or Cumulic subgroups that are: a. somewhat poorly drained with a water table equal to 0.0 foot (ft.) from the surface during the growing season, or

b. poorly drained or very poorly drained and have either: (1) water table equal to 0.0 ft. during the growing season if textures are

coarse sand, sand, or fine sand in all layers within 20 inches (in.), or for other soils

(2) water table at less than or equal to 0.5 ft. from the surface during the growing season if permeability is equal to or greater than 6.0 in./hour (h.) in all layers within 20 in., or

(3) water table at less than or equal to 1.0 ft. from the surface during the growing season, if permeability is less than 6 in./h. in any layer within 20 in., or

3. Soils that are frequently ponded for long or very long duration during the growing season, or 4. Soils that are frequently flooded for long or very long duration during the growing

season.

*Estimated soils properties that are relevant to the Hydric Soil Criteria are found in the tables Engineering Index Properties, Physical and Chemical Properties of the Soils, and Soil and Water Features of published soil surveys or from data in the National Soil Survey Handbook http://soils.usda.gov/technical/handbook/. Appendix I to this handbook contains a list of hydric soils for each modern soil survey publication of Florida.

The main purpose for establishing the criteria was to create Hydric Soil Lists; however, according to the NTCHS, Criteria 1, 3, and 4 can be used to document the presence of a hydric soil. However, on-site evidence that at least one of the criteria (1, 3, and/or 4) is met must be documented and proof that anaerobic conditions (as required by the definition and defined by the Hydric Soil Technical Standard) exists must also be obtained. Criteria 2 cannot be used to document the presence of a hydric soil; Hydric Soils Indicators must be used to document the presence of a hydric soil for these saturated soils. Hydric Soil Lists:

Hydric Soil Lists are created by comparing estimated soil properties with the criteria. Most commonly the interpretive rating of whether or not a soil has a probability of being hydric is obtained by comparing the estimated soil properties in a published soil survey with the Hydric Soil Criteria. If any portion of the range of estimated properties for a soil is within the criteria that soil appears on Hydric Soils Lists. For example, if a soil with a permeability of less than 6 in./h. has an estimated water table of 1.0 to 2.0 ft. during any portion of the growing season, that soil would be on the hydric soil list, although most of the range in estimated water table (> 1.0 ft.) does not meet the criteria*.

Thus, the presence of a soil on a hydric soil list does not mean that the soil is in fact hydric. This is only an interpretive rating. As with all interpretations based on information in a published soil survey or other

16

sources of estimated soil properties, hydric soil interpretations are confirmed by on-site investigations. The Myakka series, for instance, appears on hydric soil lists, but less than 15% of mapped areas are hydric. Hydric Soil Indicators

Field indicators of hydric soils are routinely used in conjunction with the definition to confirm the presence or absence of a hydric soil. The following discussion is excerpted from the publication Field Indicators of Hydric Soils in the United States (Hurt and Vasilas, 2006) which is the guide that should be applied to identify and delineate hydric soils in the field. The NTCHS is responsible for revising and maintaining the Hydric Soil Indicators. The list of Hydric Soil Indicators is not static. Changes are anticipated as new knowledge of morphological, physical, chemical, and mineralogical soil properties accumulates. Revisions and additions will continue as we continue to gain a better understanding of the relationships between the development of recognizable soil properties and anaerobic soil conditions.

All modifications must be approved by the NTCHS. Proper use of the Indicators requires a basic knowledge of soils, soil-landscape relationships, and soil survey procedures. Most of the Hydric Soil Indicators are landform specific. Professional soil or wetland scientists familiar with local conditions are best equipped to make on-site hydric soil determinations. Hydric Soil Indicator Concept

The Hydric Soil Indicator concept is based on the premise that hydric soils develop and exhibit characteristic morphologies that result from repeated periods of saturation and/or inundation for more than a few days. Such wetness essentially eliminates oxygen. Anaerobic microbiological activity in soils promotes the accumulation of organic matter; reduction, translocation, and/or accumulation of nitrates, manganese, iron, and sulfur; and even carbon (methanogenesis). These processes result in characteristic morphologies that persist in the soil during both wet and dry periods, making them particularly useful for identifying hydric soils.

Because of seasonal and annual variations, the other two components of wetland (hydrology and vegetation) are not as easily assessed as soils.

Hydric soil indicators form by processes that accumulate and/or deplete iron or manganese, accumulate and/or differentially remove organic carbon materials, and reduce sulfur compounds. Examples are redoximorphic features, muck accumulation, and the presence of hydrogen sulfide gas. This last indicator is found in only the wettest sites, i.e., coastal marshes, which contain sulfur. Indicators that accumulate and/or differentially remove organic carbon materials are the most common in Florida. Parent materials of many soils in Florida contain low amounts of iron and manganese. Soils formed in such materials may have low chroma colors that are not related to saturation and reduction. See the chapter Formation of Hydric Soils and Redoximorphic Features for a more detailed discussion on the processes that form hydric soil morphologies. Hydric Soil Indicator Identification Procedure To document a hydric soil, dig a hole and describe the soil profile to a depth of approximately 50 cm (20 inches). Using the completed soil description specify which, if any, of the Indicators have been met. Deeper examination of soil may be required where field Indicators are not easily seen within 50 cm (20 inches) of the surface. It is always recommended that soils be excavated and described as deep as necessary to make reliable interpretations. For example, examination to less than 50 cm (20 inches) may suffice in soils with surface horizons of organic material or mucky mineral material because these shallow organic accumulations only occur in hydric soils. Conversely, depth of excavation will often be greater

17

than 50 cm (20 inches) in Mollisols because the upper horizons of these soils, due to the masking effect of organic material, often contain no visible redoximorphic features. In many sites it is necessary to make exploratory observations to a meter or more. These observations should be made with the intent of documenting and understanding the variability in soil properties and hydrologic relationships on the site. Many of the hydric soil indicators were developed for delineation purposes. During the development of these hydric soil indicators, observations were concentrated near the edge of the wetlands and in the interior of wetlands; therefore, there are wetlands that lack any of the approved hydric soil indicators in the wettest portions of these wetlands. Delineators and other users of the hydric soil indicators should concentrate their observation efforts at the wetland edge where these conditions are suspect. To determine whether an indicator is present or not it is critical to know exactly where to begin looking. Depths, as used in the Indicators, are measured from the muck or mineral soil surface in Florida All colors refer to moist Munsell colors. Soil colors specified in the Indicators do not have decimal points listed; however, colors do occur between Munsell chips. Soil colors should not be rounded to qualify as meeting an indicator. For example: a soil matrix with a chroma between 2 and 3 should be listed as having a chroma of 2+. This soil material does not have a chroma 2 and would not meet any indicator that requires a chroma 2 or less. Particular attention should be paid to changes in topography over short distances (microtopography). Small changes in elevation may result in repetitive sequences of hydric/non-hydric soils and the delineation of individual areas of hydric and non-hydric soils may be difficult. Often the dominant condition (hydric/non-hydric) is the only reliable interpretation. The shape of the local landform can greatly affect the movement of water through the landscape. Significant changes in parent material or lithologic discontinuities in the soil can affect the hydrologic properties of the soil. After exploratory observations have been made sufficient to understand the soil-hydrologic relationships at the site, subsequent excavations may then be shallower if identification of appropriate indicators allows.

The indicators are designed to be regionally specific. Each indicator states the Land Resource Regions (LRRs) in which it can be used; use of other indicators is not permitted without consent of the NTCHS. The geographic extent of LRRs and MLRAs is defined in USDA Ag. Handbook 296 (USDA-SCS. 1993. http://soils.usda.gov/technical/manual/. The indicators approved for use or testing by the National Technical Committee for Hydric Soils are as follows:

LRR Indicators P A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, A9, A11, A12, S4, S5, S6, S7, S9, F2, F3, F6, F8, F12,F13. T A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, A9, A11, A12, S4, S5, S6, S7, S8, S9, F2, F3, F6, F8, F12,

FLORIDA HYDRIC SOIL INDICATORS Hydric soil indicators are divided into two groups. The first group has those indicators normally used to delineate hydric soils. These normally occur at the hydric soil boundary. The second group is often used to identify hydric soils but, because they are maximum expressions of anaerobiosis, they are rarely used for delineation purposes. Hydric Soil Delineation Indicators for All Soils “All soils” refers to soils with any USDA soil texture. All mineral layers above any of the A Indicators have dominant chroma 2 or less, or the layer(s) with dominant chroma of more than 2 is less than 15 cm (6 inches) thick. In addition nodules and concretions are not considered to be redox concentrations. Use the following Indicators regardless of texture. A5. Stratified Layers. For use in all LRRs. Several stratified layers starting within the upper 15 cm (6 inches) of the soil surface. One or more of the layers has value 3 or less with chroma 1 or less and/or it is muck, mucky peat, peat, or mucky modified mineral texture. The remaining layers have chroma 2 or less. Stratified Layers User Notes: Use of this indicator may require assistance from a trained soil scientist with local experience. The minimum organic carbon content of at least one layer of this indicator is slightly less than required for indicator A7 (Mucky Modified Mineral Texture); at least 70 percent of soil material is covered, coated, or similarly masked with organic matter. An undisturbed sample must be observed. Individual strata are dominantly less than 2.5 cm (1 inch) thick. A hand lens is an excellent tool to aid in the identification of this indicator. Many alluvial soils have stratified layers at greater depths; these are not hydric soils. Many alluvial soils have stratified layers at the required depths but lack chroma 2 or less; these do not fit this indicator. Stratified Layers occur in any type soil material. A6. Organic Bodies. For use in all LRRs. Presence of 2% or more organic bodies of muck or a mucky modified mineral texture, approximately 1 to 3 cm (0.5 to 1 inches) in diameter, starting within 15 cm (6 inches) of the soil surface. In some soils the organic bodies are smaller than 1 cm. Organic Bodies User Notes: The percent organic carbon in organic bodies is the same as in the Muck or Mucky Texture Indicators. This indicator includes the indicator previously named “accretions” (Florida Soil Survey Staff, 1992). Many organic bodies lack the required amount of organic carbon and are not indicative of hydric soils. The content of organic carbon should be known before this indicator is used. Organic bodies of hemic (mucky peat) and/or fibric (peat) soil materials do not qualify as this indicator. Material consisting of partially decomposed root tissue does not qualify as the indicator. A7. 5 cm Mucky Mineral. For use in all LRRs. A layer of mucky modified mineral soil material 5 cm (2 inches) or more thick starting within 15 cm (6 inches) of the soil surface. 5 cm Mucky Mineral User Notes: "Mucky" is a USDA texture modifier for mineral soils. The organic carbon content is at least 5 and ranges to as high as 18 percent. The percentage requirement is dependent upon the clay content of the soil; the higher the clay content, the higher the organic carbon requirement. An example is

19

mucky fine sand, which has at least 5 percent organic carbon but not more than about 12 percent organic carbon. Another example is mucky sandy loam, which has at least 7 percent organic carbon but not more than about 14 percent organic carbon. A8. Muck Presence. For use in LRR U. A layer of muck with value 3 or less and chroma 1 or less within 15 cm (6 inches) of the soil surface. Muck Presence User Notes: The presence of muck of any thickness within 15 cm (6 inches) is the only requirement. Normally this expression of anaerobiosis is at the soil surface; however, it may occur at any depth within 15 cm (6 inches). Muck is sapric soil material with at least 12 to 18 percent organic carbon. Organic soil material is called muck (sapric soil material) if virtually all of the material has undergone sufficient decomposition such that plant parts can not be identified. Hemic (mucky peat) and fibric (peat) soil materials do not qualify. Generally muck is black and has a “greasy” feel; sand grains should not be evident. A9. 1 cm Muck. For use in LRRs P, and T. A layer of muck 1 cm (0.5 inches) or more thick with value 3 or less and chroma 1 or less starting within 15 cm (6 inches) of the soil surface. 1 cm Muck User Notes: Unlike Indicator A8 (Muck Presence) there is a minimum thickness requirement of 1 cm. Normally this expression of anaerobiosis is at the soil surface; however, it may occur at any depth within 15 cm (6 inches). Muck is sapric soil material with at least 12 to 18 percent organic carbon. Organic soil material is called muck (sapric soil material) if virtually all of the material has undergone sufficient decomposition to limit recognition of the plant parts. Hemic (mucky peat) and fibric (peat) soil materials do not qualify. Generally muck is black and has a “greasy” feel; sand grains should not be evident. A11. Depleted Below Dark Surface. For use in all LRRs. A layer with a depleted or gleyed matrix that has 60% or more chroma 2 or less starting within 30 cm (12 inches) of the soil surface that has a minimum thickness of either:

a. 15 cm (6 inches), or b. 5 cm (2 inches) if the 5 cm (2 inches) consists of fragmental soil material.

Loamy/clayey layer(s) above the depleted or gleyed matrix must have value 3 or less and chroma 2 or less. Any sandy material above the depleted or gleyed matrix must have value 3 or less, chroma 1 or less, and at least 70% of the visible soil particles must be covered, coated or similarly masked with organic material. Depleted Below Dark Surface User Notes: This indicator often occurs in Mollisols but also applies to soils with umbric epipedons and dark colored ochric epipedons. For soils with dark colored epipedons greater than 30 cm (12 inches) thick, use Indicator A12. Redox concentrations including iron/manganese soft masses and/or pore linings are required in soils with matrix colors of 4/1, 4/2, and 5/2. A, E and calcic horizons may have low chromas and high values and may therefore be mistaken for a depleted matrix; however, they are excluded from the concept of depleted matrix unless common or many, distinct or prominent redox concentrations as soft masses or pore linings are present. Hydric Soil Delineation Indicators for Sandy Soils “Sandy soils” refers to those soils with a USDA texture of loamy fine sand and coarser. All mineral layers above any of the S Indicators except for Indicators S6 and S9 have dominant chroma 2 or less, or the layer(s) with dominant chroma of more than 2 is less than 15 cm (6 inches) thick. In addition, nodules and concretions are not considered to be redox concentrations. Use the following sandy Indicators for sandy mineral soil materials:

20

S5. Sandy Redox. For use in all LRRs. A layer starting within 15 cm (6 inches) of the soil surface that is at least 10 cm (4 inches) thick, and has a matrix with 60% or more chroma 2 or less with 2% or more distinct or prominent redox concentrations as soft masses and/or pore linings. Sandy Redox User Notes: Distinct and prominent are defined in the Glossary. Redox concentrations include iron and manganese masses (reddish mottles) and pore linings. Included within this concept of redox concentrations are iron/manganese bodies as soft masses with diffuse boundaries. The iron/manganese masses are 2 to 5 mm in size and have value 3 or less and chroma 3 or less; most commonly they are black. Iron/manganese masses should not be confused with concretions and nodules associated with plinthitic or relict concretions. Common to many redox concentrations are required. S6. Stripped Matrix. For use in all LRRs. A layer starting within 15 cm (6 inches) of the soil surface in which iron/manganese oxides and/or organic matter have been stripped from the matrix exposing the primary base color of soil materials. The stripped areas and translocated oxides and/or organic matter form a faint diffuse splotchy pattern of two or more colors. The stripped zones are 10% or more of the volume; they are rounded and approximately 1 to 3 cm (0.5 to 1 inches) in diameter. Stripped Matrix User Notes: This indicator includes the indicator previously named “polychromatic matrix” as well as the term “streaking.” Common to many areas of stripped (uncoated) soil materials are required. The stripped areas are approximately 1 to 3 cm (0.5 to 1 inches) in size; they may be smaller. Commonly the splotches of color have value 5 or more and chroma 1 and/or 2 (stripped) and chroma 3 and/or 4 (unstripped). The matrix may lack the 3 and/or 4 chroma material. The mobilization and translocation of the oxides and/or organic matter is the important process and should result in splotchy coated and uncoated soil areas. S7. Dark Surface. For use in all LRRs. A layer 10 cm (4 inches) thick starting within the upper 15 cm (6 inches) of the soil surface with a matrix value 3 or less and chroma 1 or less. At least 70% of the visible soil particles must be covered, coated, or similarly masked with organic material. The matrix color of the layer immediately below the dark layer must have the same colors as above or any colors with chroma 2 or less. Dark Surface User Notes: The organic carbon content of this indicator is slightly less than required for “mucky.” An undisturbed sample must be observed. A 10X or 15X hand lens is an excellent tool to help aid this decision. Many wet soils have a ratio of about 50 percent soil particles that are covered or coated with organic matter and about 50 percent uncoated or uncovered soil particles, giving the soil a salt and pepper appearance. Where the percent of coverage is less than 70 percent, a Dark Surface indicator is not present. S8. Polyvalue Below Surface. For use in LRRs T and U. A layer with value 3 or less and chroma 1 or less starting within 15 cm (6 inches) of the soil surface underlain by a layer(s) where translocated organic matter unevenly covers the soil material forming a diffuse splotchy pattern. At least 70% of the visible soil particles in the upper layer must be covered, coated, or masked with organic material. Immediately below this layer, the organic coating occupies 5% or more of the soil volume and has value 3 or less and chroma 1 or less. The remainder of the soil volume has value 4 or more and chroma 1 or less to a depth of 30 cm (12 inches) or to the spodic horizon, whichever is less. Polyvalue Below Surface User Notes: This indicator describes soils with a very dark gray or black surface or near surface layer less than 10 cm (4 inches) thick underlain by a layer where organic matter has been differentially distributed within the soil by water movement. The mobilization and translocation of organic matter results in splotchy coated and uncoated soil areas as described in the Sandy Redox and Stripped Matrix Indicators except that for S8 the whole soil is in shades of black and gray. The chroma 1 or less is critical because it limits application of this indicator to only those soils which are depleted of iron. This indicator includes the indicator previously termed “streaking.”

21

S9. Thin Dark Surface. For use in all LRRs. A layer 5 cm (2 inches) or more thick within the upper 15 cm (6 inches) of the surface, with value 3 or less and chroma 1 or less. At least 70% of the visible soil particles in this layer must be covered, coated, or masked with organic material. This layer is underlain by a layer(s) with value 4 or less and chroma 1 or less to a depth of 30 cm (12 inches) or to the spodic horizon, whichever is less. Thin Dark Surface User Notes: This indicator describes soils with a very dark gray or black near-surface layer at least 5 cm (2 inches) thick underlain by a layer where organic matter has been carried downward by flowing water. The mobilization and translocation of organic matter results in an even distribution of organic matter in the eluvial (E) horizon. The chroma 1 or less is critical because it limits application of this indicator to only those soils which are depleted of iron. This indicator commonly occurs in hydric Spodosols; however, a spodic horizon is not required. Hydric Soil Delineation Indicators for Loamy and Clayey Soils “Loamy and clayey soils” refers to those soils with USDA textures of loamy very fine sand and finer. All mineral layers above any of the F Indicators except for Indicators F8 and F12 have dominant chroma 2 or less, or the layer(s) with dominant chroma of more than 2 is less than 15 cm (6 inches) thick. Also nodules and concretions are not considered to be redox concentrations. Use the following loamy and clayey Indicators for loamy or clayey mineral soil materials: F3. Depleted Matrix. For use in all LRRs. A layer with a depleted matrix that has 60% or more chroma 2 or less that has a minimum thickness of either: a. 5 cm (2 inches) if 5 cm (2 inches) is entirely within the upper 15 cm (6 inches) of the soil, or b. 15 cm (6 inches) and starts within 25 cm (10 inches) of the soil surface. Depleted Matrix User Notes: Redox concentrations including iron/manganese soft masses and/or pore linings are required in soils with matrix colors of 4/1, 4/2, and 5/2. A, E and calcic horizons may have low chromas and high values and may therefore be mistaken for a depleted matrix; however, they are excluded from the concept of depleted matrix unless common or many, distinct or prominent redox concentrations as soft masses or pore linings are present. The low chroma matrix must be due to wetness and not a relict or parent material feature. F6. Redox Dark Surface. For use in all LRRs. A layer at least 10 cm (4 inches) thick entirely within the upper 30 cm (12 inches) of the mineral soil that has: a. matrix value 3 or less and chroma 1 or less and 2% or more distinct or prominent redox concentrations as soft masses or pore linings, or b. matrix value 3 or less and chroma 2 or less and 5% or more distinct or prominent redox concentrations as soft masses or pore linings. Redox Dark Surface User Notes: Redox concentrations in high organic matter mineral soils with dark surfaces are often difficult to see. The organic matter "masks" some or all of the concentrations that may be present. Careful examination is required in order to see what are often brownish "mottles" in the darkened materials. In some instances, drying of the samples makes the concentrations (if present) easier to see. Dried colors, if used, need to have matrix chromas of 1 or 2 and the redox concentrations need to be distinct or prominent. In soils which are wet due to subsurface saturation, the layer immediately below the dark epipedon should have a depleted or gleyed matrix. Soils which are wet due to ponding or shallow perched layer of saturation may not always have a depleted/gleyed matrix below the dark surface. It is recommended that delineators evaluate the hydrologic source and examine and describe the layer below the dark colored epipedon when applying this indicator. Redox concentrations including iron/manganese soft masses and/or pore linings are required in soils

22

with matrix colors of 4/1, 4/2, and 5/2. A, E and calcic horizons may have low chromas and high values and may therefore be mistaken for a depleted matrix; however, they are excluded from the concept of depleted matrix unless common or many, distinct or prominent redox concentrations as soft masses or pore linings are present. F8. Redox Depressions. For use in all LRRs. In closed depressions subject to ponding, 5% or more distinct or prominent redox concentrations as soft masses or pore linings in a layer 5 cm (2 inches) or more thick entirely within the upper 15 cm (6 inches) of the soil surface. Redox Depressions User Notes: This indicator occurs on depressional landforms such as: vernal pools, playa lakes, rainwater basins, “Grady” ponds, and potholes: not micro-depressions on convex or plane landscapes. F10. Marl. For use in LRR U. A layer of marl with a value 5 or more starting within 10 cm (4 inches) of the soil surface. Marl User Notes: Marl is a limnic material deposited in water by precipitation of CaCO3 by algae as defined in Soil Taxonomy (USDA, NRCS, Soil Survey Staff. 1999). It has a Munsell value 5 or more and reacts with dilute HCl to evolve CO2. Marl is not the carbonatic substrate material associated with limestone bedrock. Some soils have materials with all the properties of marl except they lack the required Munsell value. These soils are hydric if the required value is present within 10 cm (4 in) of the soil surface. Normally this indicator occurs at the soil surface. F12. Iron/Manganese Masses. For use in LRRs P, and T. On flood plains, a layer 10 cm (4 inches) or more thick with 40% or more chroma 2 or less, and 2 percent or more distinct or prominent redox concentrations as soft iron/manganese masses with diffuse boundaries. The layer occurs entirely within 30 cm (12 inches) of the soil surface. Iron/manganese masses have value 3 or less and chroma 3 or less; most commonly they are black. The thickness requirement is waived if the layer is the mineral surface layer. Iron/Manganese Masses User Notes: These iron/manganese masses are usually small (2 to 5 mm in size) and have a value and chroma 3 or less. They can be dominated by manganese and therefore have a color approaching black. The low matrix chroma must be due to wetness and not be a relict or parent material feature. Iron/manganese masses should not be confused with the larger and redder iron nodules associated with plinthite or with concretions that have sharp boundaries. This indicator occurs on flood plains of rivers such as the Apalachicola, Congaree, Mobile, Savannah, and Tennessee Rivers. F13. Umbric Surface. For use in all LRRs. In depressions and other concave landforms, a layer 25 cm (10 inches) or more thick starting within 15 cm (6 inches) of the soil surface in which the upper 15 cm (6 inches) must have value 3 or less and chroma 1 or less, and the lower 10 cm (4 inches) of the layer must have the same colors as above or any other color that has a chroma 2 or less. Umbric Surface User Notes: Thickness requirements maybe slightly less than those required for an umbric epipedon. Microlows are not considered to be concave landforms. Umbric surfaces on higher landscape positions, such as side slopes dominated by Humic Dystrudepts, are excluded. Hydric Soil Identification Indicators for All Soils “All soils” refers to soils with any USDA soil texture. All mineral layers above any of the A Indicators have dominant chroma 2 or less, or the layer(s) with dominant chroma of more than 2 is less than 15 cm (6 inches) thick. In addition nodules and concretions are not considered to be redox concentrations. Use the following Indicators regardless of texture.

23

A1. Histosol (For use in all LRRs) or Histel (For use in LRRs with permafrost). Classifies as a Histosol (except Folist) or as a Histel (except Folistel). Histosol User Notes: A Histosol has 40 cm (16 inches) or more of the upper 80 cm (32 inches) as organic soil material. Organic soil material has an organic carbon content (by weight) of 12 to 18 percent, or more, depending on the clay content of the soil. These materials include muck (sapric soil material), mucky peat (hemic soil material), or peat (fibric soil material). A2. Histic Epipedon. For use in all LRRs. A histic epipedon underlain by mineral soil material with chroma 2 or less. Histic Epipedon User Notes: Most histic epipedons are surface horizons 20 cm (8 inches) or more thick of organic soil material. Aquic conditions or artificial drainage are required. A3. Black Histic. For use in all LRRs. A layer of peat, mucky peat, or muck 20 cm (8 inches) or more thick starting within the upper 15 cm (6 inches) of the soil surface having hue 10YR or yellower, value 3 or less, and chroma 1 or less underlain by mineral soil material with chroma 2 or less. Black Histic User Notes: Unlike indicator A2 this indicator does not require proof of aquic conditions or artificial drainage. A4. Hydrogen Sulfide. For use in all LRRs. A hydrogen sulfide odor within 30 cm (12 inches) of the soil surface. Hydrogen Sulfide User Notes: This "rotten egg smell" indicates that sulfate-sulfur has been reduced and therefore the soil is anaerobic. In most hydric soils, the sulfidic odor is only present when the soil is saturated and anaerobic. A12.Thick Dark Surface. For use in all LRRs. A layer at least 15cm (6 inches) thick with a depleted or gleyed matrix that has 60% or more chroma 2 or less starting below 30cm (12 inches) of the surface. The layer (s) above the depleted or gleyed matrix must have value 2.5 or less and chroma 1 or less to a depth of at least 30cm (12 inches) and value 3 or less and chroma 1 or less in any remaining layers above the depleted or gleyed matrix. Any sandy material above the depleted or gleyed matrix must have at least 70% of the visible soil particles covered, coated, or similarly masked with organic material. Thick Dark Surface User Notes: This indicator has a black layer 30 cm (12 inches) or more thick and has value 3 or less, chroma 1 or less in any remaining layers immediately above a depleted matrix or gleyed matrix. This indicator is most often associated with overthickened soils in concave landscape positions. Redox concentrations including iron/manganese soft masses and/or pore linings are required in soils with matrix colors of 4/1, 4/2, and 5/2. A, E and calcic horizons may have low chromas and high values and may therefore be mistaken for a depleted matrix; however, they are excluded from the concept of depleted matrix unless common or many, distinct or prominent redox concentrations as soft masses or pore linings are present. Hydric Soil Identification Indicators for Sandy Soils “Sandy soils” refers to those soils with a USDA texture of loamy fine sand and coarser. All mineral layers above any of the S Indicators except for Indicators S6 and S9 have dominant chroma 2 or less, or the layer(s) with dominant chroma of more than 2 is less than 15 cm (6 inches) thick. In addition, nodules and concretions are not considered to be redox concentrations. Use the following sandy Indicators for sandy mineral soil materials: S4. Sandy Gleyed Matrix. For use in all LRRs. A gleyed matrix which occupies 60% or more of a layer

24

starting within 15 cm (6 inches) of the soil surface. Sandy Gleyed Matrix User Notes: Gley colors are not synonymous with gray colors. Gley colors are those colors that are found on the gley page (Gretag/Macbeth, 2000). They have hue N, 10Y, 5GY, 10GY, 5G, 10G, 5BG, 10BG, 5B, 10B, or 5PB with value 4 or more. The gleyed matrix only has to be present within 15 cm (6 inches) of the surface. Soils with gleyed matrices are saturated for a significant duration; this is why no thickness of the layer is required. Hydric Soil Identification Indicators for loamy and Clayey Soils “Loamy and clayey soils” refers to those soils with USDA textures of loamy very fine sand and finer. All mineral layers above any of the F Indicators except for Indicators F8 and F12 have dominant chroma 2 or less, or the layer(s) with dominant chroma of more than 2 is less than 15 cm (6 inches) thick. Also nodules and concretions are not considered to be redox concentrations. Use the following loamy and clayey Indicators for loamy or clayey mineral soil materials: F2. Loamy Gleyed Matrix. For use in all LRRs. A gleyed matrix that occupies 60% or more of a layer starting within 30 cm (12 inches) of the soil surface. Loamy Gleyed Matrix User Notes: Gley colors are not synonymous with gray colors. Gley colors are those colors that are found on the gley pages (Gretag/Macbeth. 2000). They have hue N, 10Y, 5GY, 10GY, 5G, 10G, 5BG, 10BG, 5B, 10B, or 5PB, with value 4 or more. The gleyed matrix only has to be present within 30 cm (12 inches) of the surface. Soils with gleyed matrices are saturated for a significant duration; this is why no thickness of the layer is required. F7. Depleted Dark Surface. For use in all LRRs. Redox depletions, with value 5 or more and chroma 2 or less, in a layer at least 10 cm (4 inches) thick entirely within the upper 30 cm (12 inches) of the mineral soil that has: a. matrix value 3 or less and chroma 1 or less and 10% or more redox depletions, or b. matrix value 3 or less and chroma 2 or less and 20% or more redox depletions. Depleted Dark Surface User Notes: Care should be taken not to mistake mixing of an E or calcic horizon into the surface layer as depletions. The "pieces" of E and calcic horizons are not redox depletions. Knowledge of local conditions is required in areas where E and/or calcic horizons may be present. In soils which are wet due to subsurface saturation, the layer immediately below the dark surface should have a depleted or gleyed matrix. Redox depletions should have associated microsites redox concentrations that occur as Fe pore linings or masses within the depletion(s) or surrounding the depletion(s). Summary

The hydric soil definition has been established and tested by the NTCHS. All hydric soils must meet the definition. Hydric soil criteria are used to develop hydric soil lists. Hydric soil lists, in turn, are used for off site analysis of the potential presence of hydric soils. Indicators are used to identify hydric soils on-site. A hydric soil exists if an on-site determination identifies the presence of a hydric soil indicator. References Environmental Laboratory. 1987.

HYDRIC SOILS OF FLORIDA HANDBOOK FOURTH EDITION

FLORIDA ASSOCIATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL SOIL SCIENTISTS

in cooperation with UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA- SOIL AND WATER SCIENCE DEPARTMENT

USDA-NATURAL RESOURCES CONSERVATION SERVICE

DELINEATING HYDRIC SOILS IN FLORIDA

G. Wade Hurt Introduction

For centuries wetlands in Florida were regarded as little more than habitat for mosquitoes, snakes, and other pests. Since attaining statehood, efforts to alter Florida’s wetland ecosystems, typified by the massive drainage projects in the Everglades, have been extensive. Today, in addition to recognizing wetlands as habitats for a variety of wildlife species (including mosquitoes and snakes), we are aware that wetlands are the nurseries for our fisheries, and that they filter pollutants, reduce flooding, protect against erosion, provide timber products, recharge groundwater reserves, and furnish society with educational, scientific, recreational, and aesthetic benefits. Local, state, and federal governments have enacted laws that regulate the use of wetlands to preserve these public benefits.

To be regulated, wetlands must first be identified and delineated. Most regulated wetlands must have three essential components: 1) hydrophytic vegetation, 2) hydric soils, and 3) wetland hydrology (Cowardin et al., 1979; Tiner and Burke, 1995; Environmental Laboratory, 1987; and Hammer, 1992). Technical criteria for each of these components must be met before an area can be identified as a regulated wetland (Environmental Laboratory, 1987; USDA-NRCS, 1994; and Gilbert et al,. 1995). When anaerobic conditions prevail in wetland soils for long enough periods during the growing season predominance of hydrophytic vegetation is favored. Undrained hydric soils with natural vegetation should support a dominant population of ecologically facultative wetland and obligate wetland plant species and drained hydric soils without natural vegetation retain the ability to support a dominant population of ecologically facultative wetland and obligate wetland plant species once hydrologic modifications are removed or are not maintained.

We present approaches and methods for identifying and delineating hydric soils for purposes of

implementing Chapter 62-340 Florida Administrative Code (FAC), Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA), and the Food Security Act of 1985 as amended by the Food, Agriculture, Conservation, and Trade Act of 1990 and the Federal Agriculture Improvement and Reform Act of 1996 (jointly referred to as FSA). Our design is to assist readers in making wetland determinations and delineations using hydric soils as the defining component. Separate sections are devoted to preliminary off-site investigations and detailed examination and delineation procedures. A special section deals with problem hydric soil delineations. We also include our observations and recommendations for delineating hydric soils that were developed and tested over a period of 30 years.

27

WETLAND COMPONENTS Hydrology

Water is the key component for the presence or absence of wetlands. Unfortunately, annual and seasonal variations in hydrology make the direct use of this component for delineating wetlands in the field very difficult, time consuming, and costly. In addition, requirements for recognition of wetland hydrology vary greatly among regulating agencies. Inundation and/or saturation to the soil surface for 5 to 12.5% of the growing season is a requirement by one agency (Environmental Laboratory, 1987). Requirements by another agency are inundation for 7 days, or saturation for 14 days, or inundation for 15 days, or inundation for 10% of the growing season (USDA- SCS, 1994). Faulkner et al. (1991) found that more than 14 consecutive days to as many as 28 consecutive days of surface saturation annually may be required to induce sufficient anaerobic conditions for developing hydric soil morphology.

Hydrological records of several or more years are required to accurately assess the hydrology of a site. Skaggs et al. (1994) documented a site that required 48 years of data to determine that wetland hydrology was present in 24 of those years and therefore met wetland requirements. However, wetland hydrology was not present for the other 24 years and several consecutive years lacked wetland hydrology. These types of data (years to decades) are desirable, but rarely available for borderline sites and most delineation edges. Determination of the hydrologic status of a site must often be based on secondary indicators and, sometimes, short term saturation records. The reliability of short term saturation monitoring to determine whether wetland hydrology exists for a given site is suspect (Skaggs et al., 1991). Most often the assumption is made that wetland hydrology exists if both hydric soils and hydrophytic vegetation are present. Vegetation

Presence or absence of wetland vegetation is based on lists of plants (Reed, 1988 and Gilbert et al., 1995) that grow in areas with insufficient concentration of oxygen for root respiration. Reed (1988) recognized four types of indicator plants that occur in wetlands: 1) obligate wetland plants that occur in wetlands 99% of the time, 2) facultative wetland plants that occur in wetlands 67 to 99% of the time, 3) facultative plants that occur in wetlands 34 to 66% of the time, and 4) facultative upland plants that occur in wetlands 1-33% of the time. Failure of this plant list to accurately correlate with wetlands has been well documented. In north-central Florida six sites were investigated (Best et al., 1990); four were wetlands (based on the three component approach) and two were uplands. Based on agency methodology for implementation of FAC, CWA, and FSA, vegetation at all six sites was hydrophytic. In addition, vegetation is difficult to assess in dormant seasons and seasonal and annual variation exists. Situations exist where vegetation cannot be used as a means of identifying a wetland. For example: 1) areas with vegetative cover that no longer consists of natural plant species, 2) site-prepared areas denuded of vegetation, 3) ecotones, and 4) dredge and/or fill areas. Hydric Soils

Soils provide a reliable method of delineating wetlands especially in areas with unreliable or unavailable hydrology, in areas of transitional vegetation, and in areas where use of the plant list does not provide delineation assistance (Florida Soil Survey Staff, 1992; Hurt and Brown, 1995; and Segal et al., 1995). According to Field Indicators of Hydric Soils in the United States (Hurt et al, 1998), “Nearly all hydric soils exhibit characteristic morphologies that result from repeated periods of saturation and/or inundation for more than a few days. Soil saturation or inundation activates anaerobic microbiological activity that results in a depletion of oxygen. This anaerobiosis promotes biogeochemical processes such as the accumulation of organic matter and the reduction, translocation, and/or accumulation of iron and other reducible elements.” These processes are responsible for the formation of characteristic soil morphologies that persist during both

28

wet and dry periods, making them particularly useful for identifying hydric and other wet soils (Vepraskas, 1994 and Mausbach and Richardson, 1994).

Relationships and limitations of the hydric soil definition, criteria, and hydric soil indicators must be thoroughly understood to facilitate accurate field identification and delineation of hydric soils. See the chapter Florida’s Hydric Soils: A Guide to Their Recognition for a more thorough discussion concerning hydric soil terminology.

PRELIMINARY OFF-SITE INVESTIGATIONS

Before any on-site identification or delineation of hydric soils, all available off-site information should be evaluated. Off-site information available for most non-federal lands in Florida includes the published soil surveys of the National Cooperative Soil Survey, National Wetlands Inventory Maps produced by the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), topographic quadrangle series of maps produced by the US Geological Survey (USGS), and maps of areas subject to flooding produced by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Reviewing these sources of information before attempting to identify or delineate hydric soils can significantly reduce time spent in the field. This information also facilitates actual on-site identification and delineation procedures.

Published Soil Surveys and Hydric Soil Lists

The published soil survey is an excellent place to initiate off-site investigation before making on-site

wetland determinations. Soil surveys have been completed for 99% of the private and non-federal lands in Florida at a scale of 1:12,000 to 1:24,000. Hydric soil lists for each survey area are also available. Hydric soil lists are found in the back of this handbook (Appendix II). These lists contain components of soil survey map units that have a high probability of being hydric. The lists were developed by comparing the estimated soil properties in a published soil survey with the hydric soil criteria. Hydric soil lists must be used with caution because they have at least three limitations. First, the scale limitation must be considered. Most soil surveys do not show soil bodies that are less than about 2-5 acres in size. Second, the presence of a soil on a hydric soil list does not mean that the soil is in fact hydric; this is only an interpretive rating and must be verified in the field (see the chapter Florida’s hydric soils: a guide to their recognition for a more thorough discussion concerning use limitations of hydric soil lists). Finally, most soil surveys were produced prior to development of the hydric soil concept. National Wetland Inventory Maps

Also available for off-site examination are National Wetland Inventory (NWI) maps produced by the USFWS. These maps contain wetland delineations as defined in Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al., 1979) at a scale of 1:24000. The NWI maps were produced by interpreting high altitude aerial photography; usually at a scale of 1:80,000 to 1:40,000. They have three limitations for wetland delineation. First, the definition of wetlands used to produce the NWI maps is not the same as the definitions used to delineate jurisdictional wetlands: jurisdictional wetlands are determined based on three components (soils, hydrology, and vegetation) whereas NWI wetland maps may have delineations based on only one parameter and often fails to delineate cropped fields, pastures, and borderline wetlands. Second, many NWI maps were produced from poor quality aerial photography. Finally, scale limitations do not allow for delineation of areas less than about 2 acres.

29

Topographic Maps

Another source of information is the topographic quadrangle series of maps produced by USGS. These maps contain topographic features including swamp and marsh symbols at a scale of 1:24000 and may be useful as a source of off- site wetland information. Limitations of these maps for wetland delineation include the following. First, not all areas with marsh and swamp symbols are wetlands, conversely, there are areas of wetlands that lack marsh and swamp symbols. Second, quality of the topographic maps varies from quadrangle to quadrangle and within any given quadrangle; however, the degree of field verification is indicated on the legend for each map. Finally, the scale limitation is the same as mentioned for the NWI maps. Federal Emergency Management Agency Maps

Another source of information is the topographic quadrangle series of maps produced by the FEMA. These maps contain delineations of areas FEMA has determined to be flood prone at a scale of 1:24000. The limitations of FEMA maps for wetland delineation include the following. First, flood prone areas delineated contain many areas of uplands flooded as rarely as once every one to five hundred years. Although many areas of wetlands will be within areas delineated as flood prone areas there will also be many areas of uplands. Second, saturated wetlands and many depressional wetlands are not identified on these maps. Finally, the scale limitation is approximately the same as for NWI maps and USGS topography quadrangle maps.

Because of the limitations listed above, on-site investigation is recommended to decide if hydric soils occur and to determine the exact location and extent of hydric soils. However, valuable insight can be gained by reviewing these sources of information before attempting hydric soil delineations, and lessen the time needed to locate and delineate hydric soils.

DETAILED EXAMINATION AND DELINEATION PROCEDURES Landform Recognition

A landscape is the land surface that an eye can comprehend in a single view (Tuttle, 1975 and Soil Survey Division Staff, 1993). Most frequently it is a collection of landforms. Landforms are physical, recognizable features on the earth's surface that have characteristic shapes produced by natural processes. Hydric soils occur on various landforms (Soil Survey Staff, 1996) that include backswamps, bogs, depressions, estuaries, interdunes, marshes, flats, flood plains, oxbows, meander scars, seep slopes, and swamps. Landform recognition is one of the most important factors in hydric soil determination and delineation.

Hydric soils develop because water saturates the soil or collects on the soil surface, which leads to oxygen depletion. A concave surface frequently augmented by slower permeability of subsurface horizons allows this process to occur. Hydric soil indicators normally appear at a concave slope break and continue throughout the extent of the wetland although concavity may not exist throughout the wetland. The concave slope break may be very subtle but it is present in most all natural landscapes. Wetland delineators need to become familiar with the landscapes and hydrology of their area in order to recognize the often subtle slope breaks. Delineators need to anticipate where inundated or saturated soils are likely to occur. Water is the driving force behind the development of hydric soils (wetlands); landscape hydrology must be understood to make hydric soil determinations and delineate wetlands efficiently.

30

Hydric Soil Indicators

Hydric soil indicators are formed predominantly by accumulation, loss, or transformation of iron, manganese, sulfur, or carbon compounds. The H2S (rotten egg) odor is a strong indicator of a hydric soil, but this indicator is found in only the wettest and highly reduced sites. Iron depletions or concentrations are the most common field indicators, but they rarely form in soils with parent materials that contain low amounts of iron. Soils formed in such materials may have low chroma colors (2 or less) that are not related to saturation and reduction. For these soils, features related to accumulations of organic carbon are most commonly used.

Field indicators of hydric soils are routinely used in conjunction with the hydric soil definition to confirm the presence or absence of a hydric soil. The publication Field Indicators of Hydric Soils in the United States (Hurt and Vasilas, 2006) is the current guide that should be applied to identify and delineate hydric soils in the field. The National Technical Committee for Hydric Soils (NTCHS) is responsible for revising and maintaining the hydric soil indicators. See the chapter Florida’s hydric soils: a guide to their recognition for a more thorough discussion concerning field indicators currently approved for identifying and delineating hydric soils in Florida.

The list of hydric soil indicators is not static. Changes are anticipated as new knowledge of morphological, physical, chemical, and mineralogical soil properties accumulates. Revisions and additions will continue as we gain a better understanding of the relationships between recognizable soil morphological properties and anaerobic soil conditions.

To apply indicators properly, basic knowledge of soil science, soil landscape relationships, and soil survey procedures are necessary. Professional soil or wetland scientists familiar with local conditions are best equipped to make an on-site hydric soil determination. Each Land Resource Regions (LRR) in Florida has a list of indicators that have been approved by NTCHS for use as follows: LRR Indicators P A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, A9, A11, A12, S4, S5, S6, S7, S9, F2, F3, F6, F8, F12, and F13. T A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, A9, A11, A12, A16 (MLRA 150A), S4, S5, S6, S7, S8, S9, F2, F3,

F6, F8, F12, and F13. U A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, A8, A11, A12, S4, S5, S6, S7, S8, S9, F2, F3, F6, F10, and F13.

Geographic extent of LRRs and MLRAs in the United States and Puerto Rico has been defined in USDA Ag. Handbook 296 (USDA-SCS, 1981). LRR U occurs south of a line from St. Augustine, through Gainesville, to Cedar Key; LRRs T and P are north of this line. Discharge vs. Recharge Hydric Soils

Discharge hydric soils release ground water to the land surface through springs, seeps, and other discharge zones. Recharge hydric soils transmit water to the ground water/aquifer and sometimes to discharge hydric soils. Hydric soils in the Florida generally are recharge hydric soils; however, they may function as seasonally dependent discharge systems. There are small areas made up entirely of discharge hydric soils and discharge hydric soils occur at wetland boundaries upstream from regional flow. Both recharge and discharge hydric soils exist in the sub humid to arid midwestern, southwestern, and western parts of the United States. The significance to hydric soils is that discharge systems generally have different morphological indicators than recharge systems.

31

Classic discharge hydric soils have morphologies that reflect water moving to the soil’s surface. Discharge water carries materials, such as reduced Fe 2+, and these materials are precipitated at or near the soil surface. In semiarid and arid climates calcium carbonate, gypsum, or more soluble salts accumulate. Discharge hydric soils often lack evidence of saturation, below a depth of about 20 inches, because additions of Fe2+ occurs in zones with low available organic matter which is needed to drive microbial activity. The following are examples of discharge hydric soil indicators:

A11 (Depleted Below Dark Surface) S5 (Sandy Redox) S8 (Thin Dark Surface) S9 (Polyvalue Below Surface) F6 (Redox Dark Surface) F8 (Redox Depressions F12 (Iron/Manganese Masses).

Recharge hydric soils are wettest at the surface and remain so longer than discharge hydric soils. The

amount of organic matter and microbial activity is very high and these hydric soils have maximum expressions of anaerobiosis. Recharge activities often leach soils creating acidity. The acidity may be reflected in plants that produce tannin. Tannins in turn create organic surfaces that aid in holding water and promote anaerobiosis (Collins and Kuehl, 2001). Classic recharge indicators include:

A1 (Histosols) A3 (Black Histic) A12 (Thick Dark Surface) S7 (Dark Surface) S2 (Sandy Gleyed Matrix) F2 (Loamy Gleyed Matrix) F3 (Depleted Matrix) where Indicators not specifically designated as discharge or recharge hydric soil indicators can form under

either discharge or recharge hydrology or form in hydric soils that exhibit seasonally dependent discharge and recharge. For example, indicator F3 (Depleted Matrix) occurs in both discharge and recharge hydric soils. In recharge hydric soils, the depleted matrix is not the surface layer and is continuous. In discharge hydric soils, the depleted matrix is the surface layer. Other indicators that may occur in discharge and recharge situations include A4 (Hydrogen Sulfide) and F7 (Depleted Dark Surface). It is recommended that delineators evaluate the hydrologic source and flow patterns and examine soils accordingly. Vertical and Horizontal Soil Variability

Soil variability occurs both vertically within a soil and horizontally across the landscape. Vertical variability is related to parent material and soil forming processes. Horizontal (lateral) variability is related to stratigraphy and to changes in one or more of the soil forming processes. Therefore, in most soils that occur on simple landforms soil variability is relatively unimportant in making a hydric soil determination. Most soils identified as hydric on a specific landform are hydric throughout the extent of that landform and wherever that landform occurs. Nonhydric soils occur on adjacent higher landforms (uplands). For example, flood plains can be a landscape and have multiple landforms. Some flood plain landforms (oxbows, meander scars, backswamps) may be hydric and some (levees, stream terraces, flood-plain splays) may be nonhydric. Conversely, a flood plain may be a single landform and have hydric (or nonhydric) throughout it’s extent.

Hydric Soil Indicators for Delineation and Identification

Indicators recognized as identification indicators usually occur in the wettest of wetlands, which are

normally saturated or inundated for much of most years. Those recognized as delineation indicators occur at the much drier delineation boundary. Many hydric soil indicators are landform specific. We differentiate those indicators used primarily for delineation from those used primarily for identification and indicate landform specificity as follows:

Restricted to Hydric Soil Indicator Type of Indicator Landform A1 Histosol Identification A2 Histic Epipedon Identification A3 Black Histic Identification A4 Hydrogen Sulfide Identification A5 Stratified Layers Delineation A6 Organic Bodies Delineation A7 5 cm Mucky Mineral Delineation A8 Muck Presence Delineation, south Florida A9 1 cm Muck Delineation, north Florida A11 Depleted Below Dark Surface Delineation A12 Thick Dark Surface Identification S4 Sandy Gleyed Matrix Identification S5 Sandy Redox Delineation S6 Stripped Matrix Delineation S7 Dark Surface Delineation S8 Polyvalue Below Surface Delineation S9 Thin Dark Surface Delineation F2 Loamy Gleyed Matrix Identification F3 Depleted Matrix Delineation F6 Redox Dark Surface Delineation F7 Depleted Dark Surface Delineation F8 Redox Depressions Delineation Depressions F10 Marl Delineation F12 Iron/Manganese Masses Delineation Flood Plains F13 Umbric Surface Delineation Depressions

Indicators A1 (Histosols), A2 (Histic Epipedon), and A3 (Black Histic) are not normally used to identify the delineation boundary of hydric soils. Other indicators with organic soil material (A8, and A9) are used more often to delineate hydric soils. If indicator A1 is used to identify hydric soils, organic soil material and Histosol requirements contained in Soil Taxonomy must be met (Soil Survey Staff, 1999). If indicator A2 is used to identify hydric soils, all the requirements contained in Soil Taxonomy must be met (Soil Survey Staff, 1999). Unlike indicators A1 and A2 no taxonomic requirements exist for A3. Indicator A3 identifies those histic epipedons that are always wet in natural conditions.

Indicators A4 (Hydrogen Sulfide), S4 (Sandy Gleyed Matrix), and F2 (Loamy Gleyed Matrix) are not normally used to identify the delineation boundary of hydric soils. Presence of the “rotten egg” odor for A4 and the gleying required for S4 and F2 indicate that the soils are highly reduced for much of each year and

33

therefore identifies only the wetlands saturated or inundated for very long periods. These three indicators normally occur inside the delineation line established by the delineation indicators.

Indicator A5 (Stratified Materials) is routinely used to delineate hydric soils on flood plains and some

flats. Soils on the nonhydric side of delineations are either stratified with chroma in one or more layers of 3 or higher (flood plains), or the surface layer has a salt and pepper appearance (flats).

Indicator A6 (Organic Bodies) is routinely used to delineate hydric soils dominantly on flats. Soils on the nonhydric side of delineations usually have organic accreted areas but these bodies lack the required amount of organic carbon.

Indicators A7 (5 cm Mucky Mineral) and A8 (Muck Presence) or A9 (1 cm Muck) are routinely used to delineate hydric soils dominantly on flats and depressions. Soils on the nonhydric side of delineations usually lack the required amount of organic carbon.

Indicator A11 (Depleted Below Dark Surface) is often used to identify the delineation boundary of

hydric soils particularly in north Florida. Soils on the nonhydric side of delineations usually lack the required dark surface ands redox concentrations.

Indicator A12 (Thick Dark Surface) is not normally used to identify the delineation boundary of hydric

soils. This indicator normally occurs inside the delineation line established by indicators F3, F6, and/or F13.

Indicators S5 (Sandy Redox), S6 (Stripped Matrix), and S7 (Dark Surface) are routinely used to delineate hydric soils throughout Florida. Soils on the nonhydric side of delineations usually lack chroma 2 or less within 6 inches of the surface (S5), have a layer that meets all the requirements of a stripped matrix except depth (S6) or the surface layer has a salt and pepper appearance (S7).

Indicators S8 (Polyvalue Below Surface) and S9 (Thin Dark Surface) are not normally used to locate the delineation boundary of hydric soils. These two indicators normally occur within the hydric soil area established by indicators S5, S6, and/or S7; however, they may occur at delineation boundaries especially following long periods of droughty conditions.

Indicators F3 (Depleted Matrix), F6 (Redox Dark Surface), and F13 (Umbric Surface) are routinely used to delineate hydric soils throughout various regions of Florida. F7 (Depleted Dark Surface) is rarely used to delineate or identify hydric soils in Florida. Soils on the nonhydric side of delineations usually lack chroma 2 or less within the required depths or lack the required amounts and kinds of redox features (F3 and F6) or the surface layer is too thin or not dark enough (F7 and F13).

Indicator F8 (Redox Depressions) is rarely used to delineate hydric soils that occur in closed depressions subject to ponding in Florida. Soils on the nonhydric side of delineations usually lack any redox features within the required depths.

Indicator F10 (Marl) is used to delineate hydric soils in southern Florida. Soils on the nonhydric side of delineations may meet all the requirements of marl but the chroma is 2 or more, or they are dry Histosols (Folists).

34

Indicator F12 (Iron/Manganese Masses) is used to delineate hydric soils that occur on flood plains that frequently flood dominantly in the panhandle of Florida. Soils on the nonhydric side of delineations usually lack any redox features within the required depths. Hydric Soil Determination and Delineation

The procedure to determine the presence of a hydric soil is to first remove all loose leaf matter, bark, and other easily identified plant parts (often called “duff”) to expose the soil surface. Then follow the procedures outlined in the chapter Florida’s hydric soils: a guide to their recognition.

The process of delineating hydric soil boundaries on undisturbed landscapes is really rather simple in concept, but it can be difficult in practice. Where the landscape is undisturbed, the upland boundary of hydric soils is at a landform change, a convex to concave slope change. Hydric soils occur at and below the concave slope change and nonhydric soils occur at and above the convex slope change. The slope change may be very subtle or hidden by vegetation but it will be there. Often the wetland boundary delineates an intricate pattern of small areas of hydric soils and nonhydric soils.

The easiest way to delineate hydric soils is to begin on the upland side of a suspected wetland and traverse toward the wetland. Look for vegetative clues and convex to concave slope changes. Observe the soil each time the slope changes shape. Use the procedures outlined above to document one of the delineation indicators. Not all convex to concave slope changes delineate hydric soils; however, the hydric/nonhydric boundary of undisturbed soils almost always is where a concave surface begins. See the section on Disturbed Soils for an explanation of how to delineate soils that have been disturbed. Once the boundary is located, use vegetation or, where vegetation is absent, the landform change (convex to concave slope change) to assist in completing the delineation. Most often, if natural vegetation is present, one or two species can be correlated to the hydric soil boundary and thereby used to provide the key to a correct delineation. For example, in the flatwoods and associated landform areas, the uplands have the shrub saw palmetto (Serenoa repens L.) that disappears near the hydric soil boundary and is replaced on hydric soils by other shrubs such as gallberry (Ilex glabra L.) and fetterbush (Lyonia lucida L.) in north Florida or by herbaceous plants such as blue maidencane (Amphicarpum mulenbergianum L.) in south Florida.

Field indicators have been tested and are known to identify hydric soils. They were developed by observing soil pedons both inside and outside ecological wetlands. For example, S7 (Dark Surface) requires a layer 4 inches or more thick, starting within the upper 6 inches of the soil surface with a matrix value 3 or less and chroma 1 or less. In this layer at least 70% of the visible soil particles must be covered, coated, or similarly masked with organic material and the matrix color of the layer immediately below the dark layer must have chroma 2 or less. This does not mean that pedons outside the hydric soil boundary have all requirements of this indicator except thickness of the dark surface. It means that, because of the convex to concave slope change, pedons outside the line are normally very dissimilar to pedons inside the line. Normally, neighboring pedons outside the line have a surface layer with a salt and pepper appearance and is more of a 50/50 mixture of soil material covered, coated, or masked with organic material (pepper) and soil material not covered, coated, or masked (salt).

PROBLEM HYDRIC SOIL DELINEATIONS Marl and Marly Modified Mineral Soils

Soils with marl or marly modified mineral material often may be delineation and classification challenges. These soils occur in Collier, Dade, and Monroe counties. The indicator F10 (Marl) was developed

35

to identify and delineate these soils; however, problems exist. Soil materials of some highly saline wetlands are frequently flocculated by salts resulting in the formation of near surface reddish brown fluffy materials. These areas are identified as meeting the indicator F10 by having the required colors; however; one mm below the surface these required colors no longer exist. An additional problem is that, while the limnic marl is almost 100 percent CaCO3 in it’s southernmost extent (Lignumvitae and Cudjoe soils on the Monroe County Keys), the percent CaCO3 decreases progressively north and west of this area. In Dade County, the content of CaCO3 of Biscayne, Perrine, and other marl soils, ranges from near 100 percent in the south to 60 percent in the north. In Collier County, west of Big Cypress National Preserve, CaCO3 content in marly mineral soils is only 20-40 percent (Pennsucco soils and some of the Ochopee soils). In addition, color requirements for F10 are not strictly met. The authors recommend that, for delineation of hydric soils, soils with a CaCO3 content of 51 to 100 percent be considered marl, soils with 15-50% CaCO3 be considered marly mineral material, colors of 4/1 be included in the hydric soil concept, and all these conditions be considered as meeting the concept of F10. Additionally, we recommend that soils with < 15% CaCO3 be considered and classified mineral soils and therefore delineated by other, more appropriate, hydric soil indicators.

See the chapter Problem Soils: Man-Altered and Natural for additional information on problem hydric soils. Disturbed Soils

Hydric soil determinations and delineating hydric soils in areas that have been filled, dredged, land leveled, or otherwise disturbed can be difficult and an extremely challenging assignment. In some instances of disturbance the vegetation has been destroyed or removed; therefore, soils are the only on-site indicator of predisturbance hydrology and the only feasible means of identifying wetlands. Where upturned soil disturbance is recent, sufficient clods of various soil horizons may remain that will aid experienced soil scientists in verifying the original soil morphology. Predisturbance soil surveys should be consulted where available. Undisturbed areas in the vicinity may be examined to provide information of predisturbance soil morphology. Small areas of unaltered soil may be found at the base of remaining trees; however, most frequently, the disturbance is more extreme. Fill materials spread on disturbed sites usually compound the difficulties of making hydric soil determinations. Guidelines (see table below) have been established to determine the hydric status of disturbed soils after varying amounts of fill materials have been added. These guidelines are based on insights and observations and are not to be considered official guidance for FAC, CWA, and FSA use.

Hydric soil requirements are the same in disturbed areas as for areas that have not been disturbed. Most significantly, the hydric soil definition must be satisfied (Federal Register, July 13, 1994). This is normally exemplified by the presence of a Hydric Soil Indicator (Mausbach, 1994; Hurt and Carlisle, 1997). If fill material has hydric characteristics, consider whether the hydric soil indicator formed in place or is a relict feature form the fill source. The amount of fill that can be placed on a hydric soil and that soil continue to be considered hydric is directly related to the hydric soil indicator and the reason (inundation or saturation) it was hydric prior to filling.

Although the areas that meet criteria 1, 3, and 4 usually have a hydric soil indicator, this is not a requirement. According to the deliberations of NTCHS, areas that satisfy criteria 1, 3, or 4 are considered hydric if they have anaerobic conditions (see the chapter Determining the Hydric Status of a Soil) in the upper part regardless of whether an indicator is present or not (Federal Register, 2002). It is important to remember that the criteria must be met based on actual data and not the estimated soil properties such as those found in the National Cooperative Soil Survey publications.

36

For areas that meet the requirements for Histosols except Folists (applicable part of Criteria 1), fill can be placed on the soil surface to the extent that the soil, after the placement of the fill, still meets the taxonomic requirements of Histosols (Soil Survey Staff, 1999). Therefore, the maximum amount of fill material that can be added to a hydric Histosol and that soil retain its hydric status is 16 inches. The resulting soil must have organic soil material in more than 16 inches of the upper 32 inches. For Histosols with thinner organic layers to maintain their hydric status the thickness would be less. The indicator that meets the applicable part of Hydric Soil Criteria 1 is A1 (Histosol).

For soils that are frequently ponded for long or very long duration during the growing season (Criteria 3), or soils that are frequently flooded for long or very long duration during the growing season (Criteria 4) to maintain their hydric status after filling, the added fill can range from thick to very thin. The thickness of the fill must be slightly less than the height of frequent ponding or flooding of long duration (more than 7 days). This height may be either measured or estimated. If estimated, professional judgment that the definition (anaerobiosis) is met must be carefully exercised. Although any of the indicators may occur on inundated landforms, indicators F8 (Redox Depressions), F12 Iron/Manganese Masses), and F13 (Umbric Surface), are restricted to inundated landforms.

For other soils that are hydric due to saturation (Criteria 2) an indicator should be present (Hurt and

Vasilas, 2006). The depth of fill that can be placed on these soils in order to retain their hydric status is variable. The range is from slightly less than 6 inches to 0 inches in soils with sandy soil materials and the range is from slightly less than 12 inches to 0 inches in other soils. After fill materials are added an indicator must be present in the original soil material within the prescribed depths in order for that soil to retain its hydric status. The following can be used to determine the depth of fill material that would adversely affect the hydric status of a soil that is hydric due to saturation:

Depth to Type of Thickness of Hydric Indicator Indicator Fill Material Status Surface All, Sandy Up to 6 inches Hydric Surface All, Sandy More than 6 inches Nonhydric Surface Loamy or clayey Up to 12 inches1 Hydric Surface Loamy or clayey More than 12 inches1 Nonhydric 6 inches All, Sandy Zero Hydric 6 inches2 All, Sandy More than zero Nonhydric 6 inches Loamy or clayey Up to 6 inches2 Hydric 12 inches1 Loamy or clayey Zero Hydric 12 inches1 Loamy of clayey More than zero Nonhydric

1Depths and thicknesses would be 10 inches if the indicator present is F3 (Depleted Matrix). 2Depth would be 4 inches if the indicator present is F3 (Depleted Matrix).

The above information is not to be used for indicator A1, and the indicators restricted to inundated

landforms (F8, F12, and F13).

Soils with an indicator that starts at a depth that is intermediate to those listed above can have an intermediate amount of fill without changing the hydric status of the soil. For example, a soil with a stripped matrix starting within 4 inches can have up to 2 inches of any type fill material placed on the surface without changing the hydric status of the soil. Conversely, more than 2 inches of fill would change the status of the soil to nonhydric.

37

To determine the hydric status of land leveled areas the same procedure as outlined above is used.

Soils that are hydric due to criteria 1, 3, or 4 prior to land leveling are evaluated after land leveling to determine their hydric status. Soils that are hydric due to saturation prior to land leveling are evaluated by applying the guidelines outlined above to determine their hydric status. The presence of structures that provide increased drainage (ditches, tile drains, etc.) and protection from ponding and/or flooding (dikes, levees, etc.) do not alter the hydric status of a soil.

Cautions These guidelines are applicable to the identification of the hydric status of all disturbed soil areas regardless of whether the disturbance was intentional or unintentional. Intentional disturbance may alter the hydric states of a soil; however, the disturbance may be a violation of federal, state, and/or local rules and regulations and the area may be required to be restored to it predisturbed condition or the disturbance mitigated. Unintentional disturbance (such as erosional deposition) also may alter the hydric status of a soil; however, the disturbed area if it originally has hydric soils may still be eligible for federal, state, and local programs such as USDA’s Wetland Reserve Program.

USING SOIL MORPHOLOGY FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF SEASONAL HIGH SATURATION

G. Wade Hurt, Frank C. Watts, and John M. Galbraith

Introduction Wetlands are lands where the water table is at or near the surface long enough during the year to produce hydric soils and support the growth of hydrophytic vegetation. Wetlands perform vital ecological functions, including floodwater storage and water supply, water quality improvement through filtering of sediment and contaminants and excess nutrient removal, and high biological diversity through unique wildlife and vegetative habitats (Mitsch and Gosselink, 1993). More than half of the 220 million acres of wetlands that existed in the 1600s have been drained and converted to other uses, and losses continue at a rate of about 60,000 acres per year (Environmental Protection Agency, 2002). Part of the continued acreage loss occurs from failure of wetland mitigation projects to be designed correctly, constructed according to design, or constructed at all. "Wetland restoration" refers to the reestablishment of a wetland from a disturbed or altered condition because of human activity to a previously existing condition (Mitsch and Gosselink, 1993). Restoration success depends on properly restoring the former hydrology. "Wetland creation" refers to the conversion of an upland or water area into a wetland by human activity (Hammer, 1997). Most created wetlands fail to reproduce the biological and hydrological functions of the destroyed wetlands they are meant to replace (Environmental Protection Agency, 2002). Wetland mitigation (both restoration and creation) projects frequently fail or fall short of expectations because the hydrology of the proposed site was not properly assessed (Kusler and Kentula, 1990; Mitsch and Gosselink, 1993; Mitsch et al., 1998). Experience gained from wetland construction projects has shown that proper interpretation of soil morphology will maximize the likelihood of successfully restoring or constructing wetland hydrology (Maltby, 1987; Kentula et al., 1992). Repeated cycles of saturation, reduction, translocation, mineralization, and oxidation in the soil leaves distinct morphology traces that can be interpreted to reveal long-term SHS. Biogeochemical Processes The principal morphological differences between wetland soils and upland soils can be attributed to the fact that, in wetlands, specific biogeochemical processes take place because soil water frequently fills the soil pores and void spaces, resulting in saturated conditions. Hydric soils are saturated near the surface and/or inundated (i.e., free water occurs above the surface) long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part (Hurt and Vasilas, 2006). Soil saturation or inundation activates anaerobic microbiological activity that results in a depletion of oxygen. This anaerobiosis promotes biogeochemical processes such as the accumulation of organic matter and the reduction, translocation, and/or

41

accumulation of iron and other reducible elements. Distinctive soil morphology (redoximorphic features) forms by oxidation–reduction (redox) reactions, provided water is not moving through the profile and the microbes are active (warm temperature) and have an available food source (Vepraskas and Faulkner, 2001). These organic and redox features are positive indicators of anaerobiosis and other biogeochemical processes. These biogeochemical processes are responsible for the formation of characteristic soil morphological organic and redox features that persist during both wet and dry periods, making them particularly useful for identifying hydric and other wet soils (Mausbach and Richardson, 1994). The features do not form in all anaerobic soil horizons. In those horizons, dye indicators or electrodes may be used to confirm current reducing conditions (http://soils.usda.gov/ follow links to Hydric Soils, Technical Notes, and finally Technical Note 11: Technical Standards for Hydric Soils). Distinctive Morphology—Organic and Redox Features Zones and horizons may become stripped of oxidized forms of Fe, Mn, or C because the reduced forms are soluble in anaerobic soil water. The leaching of reduced forms of these elements leaves a depleted background color (depletion) of neutral gray, the natural color of uncoated mineral soil particles after they have been stripped of all oxidized coatings. Anaerobic decomposition rates of organic matter (on the order of 10–30% of aerobic decomposition rates) result in reduced mineralization and accumulation of organic matter and/or carbon compounds (Hammer, 1997; DeBusk and Reddy, 1998). Soils with frequent or long duration near surface saturation and/or inundation are most likely to build up thick organic soil materials at the surface. Drier soils may accumulate organic carbon at the surface through reduced mineralization, resulting in formation of mucky modified mineral textures in surface horizons. Organic compounds cover, coat, and mask the majority of the sand grains in sandy textures. Aerobic soils lack appreciable organic accumulation, thereby producing a “salt and pepper” appearance. Soluble, reduced forms of Fe or Mn may oxidize and accumulate to form concentrations of soft masses, pore linings, concretions, and nodules (Vepraskas 1994), provided the soil solution contains available Fe or Mn. In sandy subsoils, both depletion and concentration of organic and Fe or Mn compounds may occur within the same horizon to produce a distinctive splotchy pattern. Contemporary vs. Relict Redoximorphic Features Contemporary carbon and redox features identified in saturated soils are described below: 1. Depletions of oxidized forms of Fe, Mn, or C (and possibly clay as well) as coatings, linings, and zones, ranging in volume from a few percent to the entire horizon, leaving a background color of neutral gray, Munsell colors value of 4 or more with chroma of 2 or less (Gretag/ Macbeth, 2000), or 2. Concentrations of Fe or Mn as soft masses and continuous pore linings, with browner, redder, or yellowier colors than the depleted areas in the same horizon, or 3. Concentrations of Fe or Mn as hardened nodules or concretions with diffuse boundaries, irregular surfaces, and smooth and round surfaces with red to yellow corona, or 4. Concentrations of organic carbon as very dark colored zones, aggregates, horizons, or layers (Vepraskas, 1994), or 5. Pore linings of oxidized Fe or Mn that are continuous. Relict redoximorphic features are no longer actively functioning due to geologic changes. Only on close examination is it evident that hydric soil morphologies do not exist. Several morphological characteristics that can distinguish between contemporary and relict redoximorphic features (Vepraskas, 1994) are described below.

42

1. Contemporary hydric soils may have nodules or concretions with diffuse boundaries, irregular surfaces, and if smooth and round surfaces exist, red to yellow corona should be present. Relict hydric soils may have nodules or concretions with abrupt boundaries and smooth surfaces without accompanying corona. 2. Contemporary hydric soils may have Fe depletions along stable macropores in which roots repeatedly grow that are not overlain by iron rich coatings (redox concentrations). Relict hydric soils may have Fe depletions along stable macropores in which roots repeatedly grow that are overlain by iron rich coatings (redox concentrations). 3. Contemporary hydric soils may have iron enriched redox concentrations with Munsell colors of 5YR or more yellow with value and chroma 4 or more. Relict hydric soils may have iron enriched redox concentrations with colors redder than 5YR and value and chroma less than 4. 4. Contemporary pore linings may be continuous while relict pore linings may be broken. Interpreting Seasonal High Saturation from Soil Morphology Interpreting soil morphologies has facilitated the establishment of hydric soil indicators that are used to identify hydric soils and predict wetness characteristics in other (nonhydric) soils in the field. Soil morphology (organic and contemporary redox features) provides reliable evidence for delineating wetlands, especially in areas with unreliable or unavailable hydrologic data, where transitional vegetation exists, or where use of the list of plant species that occur in wetlands (Reed, 1988) does not provide delineation assistance (Florida Soil Survey Staff, 1992; Hurt and Brown, 1995; Segal et al., 1995). The published soil survey is an excellent tool for initiating off-site investigation before making on-site wetland determinations, especially because the contents include soil series and map unit descriptions, and water table data. Visual interpretations of the soil maps may aid in identifying possible inclusions of wetter soils. Onsite wetlands investigations frequently require the determination of depth to SHS, which is characterized in Soil Taxonomy (Soil Survey Staff, 1999) as the depth to zero or positive pressure in the soil water, which can be determined by observing free water in an unlined auger hole. This method of estimating SHS is applicable to those areas lacking hydrologic modifications and areas with modifications where the intent is to remove the modifications, because dikes, levees, ditches, and pavement can make the soil either wetter or drier (Bicki and Brown, 1990). Only rarely are conditions (wet season of year and during a normal precipitation year) such that free water accurately reflects the SHS. The prediction of SHS depth is most accurately based on the contemporary organic and redoximorphic features above and the morphological features (but not the depths or thickness) required for the identification of a hydric soil (Hurt and Vasilas, 2006) because these features represent repeated saturation levels and biogeochemical process. Table 1. Morphology index and key to seasonal high saturation (SHS) depths in soils, based on soil morphology and definitions in Field Indicators of Hydric Soils Ver. 6.0 (Hurt and Vasilas, 2006). Organic and redox features listed below give evidence of SHS† or inundation‡ in soils without hydrologic modifications. A. In soils with an approved hydric soil indicator (HSI), the SHS is the shallowest of the following: 1. Soils with the following HSIs have SHS at the soil surface or are inundated above the soil surface: A1 (Histosols other than Folists and Folistels), A2 (Histic Epipedon), A3 (Black Histic), A4 (Hydrogen Sulfide), A7 (2 in. Mucky Mineral), A8 (Muck Presence) for south Florida, A9 (1 cm Muck) for north Florida, A12 (Thick Dark Surface), and F10 (Marl). 2. Soils with the following HSIs have SHS within 6 in. of the soil surface: A5 (Stratified Layers), A6 (Organic Bodies), S4 (Sandy Gleyed Matrix), S5 (Sandy Redox), S6 (Stripped Matrix), S7 (Dark Surface), S8 (Polyvalue Below Surface), S9 (Thin Dark Surface), and F13 (Umbric Surface).

43

3. Soils with the following HSIs have SHS within 12 in. of the soil surface: A11 (Depleted Below Dark Surface), F2 (Loamy Gleyed Matrix), F3 (Depleted Matrix), F6 (Redox Dark Surface), and F7 (Depleted Dark Surface). 4. Soils with the following HSIs have inundation above the soil surface; F8 (Redox Depressions) and F12 (Iron/Manganese Masses). These indicators have features that are poor estimators of SHS. B. In soils without a HSI, the SHS is the shallowest of the following: 1. Soils that meet all the requirements of a HSI except depth have SHS at the depth that meets all the requirements of a HSI. 2. In loamy and clayey soil material the depth to SHS is the depth to common or many, distinct or prominent redox depletions with value 5 or more and: a. chroma 2 or less, if the depletions occur between 12 and 40 inches, or b. chroma 3 or less, if the depletions occur below 40 inches. 3. In sandy soil material with a chroma 3 or more the depth to SHS is the depth to common or many, distinct or prominent redox concentrations with hue 10YR or redder, value 5 or more, and chroma 6 or more and occurs below 12 inches. C. In soils without the above morphological expressions§, SHS does not occur within the observed depth. †SHS exists where soil water pressure is zero or positive; the above depths are the deepest expected normal depth to SHS; duration is long enough to produce anaerobic conditions. ‡Inundation exists where free water occurs above the soil surface; duration is long enough to produce anaerobic conditions. §Soils with relict redoximorphic features are included in Type C soils. Summary and Recommendations Positive proof that a wetland once existed at a particular site is the presence of an approved hydric soil indicator (Hurt and Vasilas, 2006) at the site. Restoration efforts should therefore be limited to those soils that have Type A morphology in Table 1 (hydric soils). Type A soils that have altered hydrology must have water tables restored to pre-altered conditions to function as wetlands. Wetlands may be created on uplands by excavating and removing soil layers above the SHS depth in soils with Type B morphologies in Table 1 (nonhydric soils) and backfilled with a few inches of topsoil. Creation of wetlands in Type C soils is unlikely to succeed without extensive (and expensive) soil and hydrology manipulation because there is no morphological evidence that the site is capable of maintaining saturated conditions in the soil. Wetland creation may also require establishment of hydrophytic vegetation if removal of the surface soil occurs. Guidelines to Predict Seasonal High Saturation The following guidelines can be used to apply the morphology index and key to predict SHS off-site from published soil survey information and on-site from direct observation. 1. Begin all wetland planning projects by obtaining detailed soil survey information from the library, the local or state USDA-NRCS office, the land-grant university, or from online sources (http://soils.usda.gov/ link to Online Surveys). USDA-NRCS office locations and contact information can also be found on the Internet (http://soils.usda.gov/ link to Contact Us). 2. If no detailed maps are available, obtain general soil survey data from the STATSGO maps available by request from the nearest USDA-NRCS state office and compile a list of the soil series used in STATSGO and download copies of the official series descriptions from the online source (http://soils.usda.gov/ link to Official Soil Series Descriptions).

44

3. Use Table 1 to predict the SHS and whether inundation normally occurs. Inundation information is described in the soil survey or in the Official Series Description and in the tables that accompany STATSGO. The Field Indicators of Hydric Soils in the United States (Hurt and Vasilas, 2006) contains a glossary of all terms needed to identify contemporary organic and redox features and is available online (http://soils.usda.gov/ link to Hydric Soils). 4. Use the latest version of the Field Indicators of Hydric Soils in the United States to determine if the soil is Type A(hydric soil), Type B (nonhydric soil), or Type C (nonhydric soils that have no contemporary organic or redox features within the observed depths). 5. Record the information for the probable soils to be found on the site to be visited and take along copies of the soil survey or the Official Series Descriptions. 6. Conduct an on-site determination using the established procedures and record a full soil description. Information concerning soil descriptions is available online (http://soils.usda.gov/ link to Hydric Soils and then to Field Book for Describing and Sampling Soils) (Schoeneberger et al., 2002). 7. Use Table 1 to predict SHS from the on-site morphology and use the data in planning and construction efforts. 8. Consult a professional soil or wetland scientist familiar with local conditions to verify on-site hydrologic predictions. Conclusions Based on the previous discussion of hydric soil morphology and the adopted conventions for determining hydric soils, some general recommendations for wetland construction and restoration can be made: 1. Wetland restoration efforts must (by definition) be limited to hydric soils. These are the soils with Type A morphology (Table 1). 2. Wetlands can be created by excavating to or below depths indicated by morphological evidence on nonhydric soils and backfilling with a few inches of topsoil. These are the soils with Type B morphology (Table 1). Although wetlands can be created on nonhydric Type B soils without excavating, an external source of water must be readily available and maintained. 3. Created wetlands on Type B and C soils that require saturation above the shallowest SHS features will require soil and hydrologic manipulation and a maintained water supply. Understanding and application of the basic concepts of hydric soil morphology and wetland soil biogeochemistry can provide an invaluable tool for siting and design of restored or constructed wetlands. The SHS depths predicted from Table 1 indicate depths where soil saturation reliably occurs, or did occur on a regular basis before site modifications. Restoring or supplying and maintaining the hydrology to the shallowest SHS depth gives the highest chances for long-term success. The probability of success for the restoration and creation of wetlands will be greatly increased if the starting guidelines presented in this paper are tested and improved upon.

LANDSCAPES AND MAJOR LANDFORMS OF FLORIDA

Frank C. Watts

A landscape is a collection of related natural landforms and it usually comprises the land surface that the eye can comprehend in a single view (Jackson 1997, Tuttle, 1975, Soil Survey Staff, 2005). A landform can in turn be described as a physical, recognizable form or feature on the earth's surface that has a characteristic shape and range of composition and is produced by natural causes (Tuttle 1975, Soil Survey Staff, 2005). The landscapes in Florida are Coastal Lowlands and Coastal Uplands.

Figure 1. Coastal Lowlands and Coastal Uplands of Florida

COASTAL LOWLANDS LANDSCAPE

Coastal (South Atlantic and Gulf) Lowlands of Florida (Watts et al. 2001) predominately occur in the shape of as an irregular belt that surrounds central, peninsula-shaped coastal uplands (Figure 1). Coastal Lowlands generally occur at elevations that are usually less than 100 feet above mean sea level. Isolated areas of these landforms are also interspersed in landscapes at somewhat higher elevations. Major landforms of the Coastal Lowlands are depressions, flood plains, flats, rises, and knolls (Watts and Carlisle, 1997, Watts et al. 2001). Marshes are included within this landscape. Subtle differences in local relief and somewhat impervious,

48

deeper geological strata, which have profoundly affected soil hydrology and subsequent soil formation, have primarily influenced the evolution of these differing landforms (Figures 2 and 3).

Figure 2. Schematic drawing of a typical Coastal Lowlands landscape and parent materials where the soils of the flatwoods are dominantly underlain by deep spodic horizons. This landscape is interspersed with depressions, flood-plains, flats, flatwoods, and rises landforms.

Figure 3. Schematic drawing of a typical Coastal Landforms landscape and parent materials where the soils of the flatwoods are dominantly underlain by deep argillic horizons. This landscape is interspersed with depressions, flood-plains, flats, flatwoods, and knolls.

49

Depression Landform

Depressions are typically sunken parts of the earth's surface, have concave relief, and do not have natural outlets for surface drainage (Jackson, 1997, Soil Survey Staff, 2005). Depressions typically are 6 to 12 inches or more lower than the surrounding landforms. Characteristic native vegetation is cypress and water-tolerant hardwoods, though some depressions consist of treeless expanses of grasses, sedges, rushes, and other herbaceous plants; others are dominated by shrubs.

Soils are very poorly drained, hydric, have seasonal high saturation at the surface and have seasonal inundation (ponding) for 3 to 9 months or more.

Flood-Plain Landform

Flood-plains are constructional (alluvial) landforms resulting from sediments deposited during overflow and lateral migration of streams or creeks (Jackson 1997, Soil Survey Staff, 2005). They have nearly level concave relief behind slightly elevated natural levees along the waterways. Elevations of flood-plains are usually much lower (1 foot or more) than the surrounding higher landforms. Flood-plains generally are subject to inundation from flooding during periods of high rainfall. Characteristic native vegetation consists primarily of water-tolerant hardwood trees.

Soils are poorly or very poorly drained, mostly hydric, have seasonal high saturation near or at the surface, and are frequently flooded during periods of high rainfall.

Flats Landform

Flats are typically low-lying, exposed flat lands that are slightly depressional with poorly defined outlets that slowly release water to adjacent depressions or flood-plains (Jackson 1997, Soil Survey Staff, 2005). They are typically 3 to 12 inches lower in elevation than adjacent higher landforms. Characteristic native vegetation consists of mixed hardwood and pine with a dense under story of shrubs and saplings in this landform’s northern range of occurrence and, in its southern range of occurrence, an open canopy of pine and an under story of grasses and/or herbs devoid of shrubs. Flats are the most difficult landform of the Coastal Lowlands landscape for untrained observers to recognize because relief changes between the adjacent higher landforms and associated landforms are subtle and vegetation is often dense, especially in the northern range of this landform’s occurrence.

Soils are poorly drained, hydric, and have seasonal high saturation at the surface. They may be seasonally inundated.

Flatwoods Landform

Flatwoods typically have broad, nearly level to gently sloping flat to convex relief (Watts and Carlisle, 1998, Watts et al. 2001). Concave relief frequently occurs when flatwoods border such landforms as the rises and knolls. The most extensive landform of the Coastal Lowlands landscape is the flatwoods (Abrahamson and Harnett, 1990). Flatwoods typically occur as broad expansive areas interspersed with rises, knolls, depressions, flood plains, and/or flats, though they also occur as narrow bands between these associated landforms (Watts, et al 2001). Characteristic native vegetation includes slash, longleaf, and loblolly pines, saw palmetto, gallberry, wax myrtle, panicums, bluestems, and pineland threeawn.

Soils are poorly drained, mostly nonhydric, and the seasonal high saturation is at a soil depth of 6 to 18 inches.

50

Rises and Knolls Landforms

Rises and knolls both have gently sloping convex relief. A rise is an imprecise term for a landform that has a broad summit and gently sloping sides, whereas a knoll is a landform that occurs as a small, low, rounded, isolated area rising above lower landscapes (Jackson 1997; Soil Survey Staff, 2005). Elevation of rises and knolls are typically at least 6 inches higher than the surrounding wetter ground (Usually flatwoods landform). The characteristic vegetation of rises and knolls consists of mixed mesic hardwood and pine forests with sparse shrub and herbaceous layers.

Soils of rises and knolls are somewhat poorly to excessively drained, nonhydric and have seasonal saturation below a depth of 18 inches.

COASTAL UPLANDS LANDSCAPE

Coastal Uplands (Jackson 1997, Soil Survey Staff, 2005) occur as an extensive region of peninsula-shaped higher ground that is far from the coast and is in the interior part of central and south Florida (Figure1). This landscape generally has elevations that range from 100 to 345 feet above mean sea level. Coastal Uplands are named various "ridges" and "hills" on the central highlands in south, central, and northeast Florida; in north and northwestern Florida the Coastal Uplands are named Northern Highlands, Tallahassee Hills, and various other hill slopes, and ridges, Marianna Lowlands, and Western Highlands (White, 1970). Major landforms of the Coastal uplands are marshes, depressions, flood-plains, flats, rises, knolls, and terraces. In some areas seeps occur within the head and side slopes of the uplands and also narrow strips of flats and flatwoods landforms occur between depressions and rises and knolls.

Uplands Landform

Uplands landforms (Jackson 1997, Soil Survey Staff, 2005) consist of land that is at relative higher elevations than the flood-plains, depressions, and terraces. Uplands can be best described with surface morphometry using elevation, slope aspect, slope gradient, slope complexity, slope shape, hillslope profile position, and geomorphic component (Schoenberger, et al 2002) Elevation is the height of a point on the Earth’s surface, relative to mean sea level (MSL). Slope aspect is the compass bearing (in degrees, corrected for declination) that a slope faces, looking downslope. Slope gradient is the angle of the ground surface (in percent) through the site and referred to as slope. Slope complexity describes the relative uniformity (smooth linear or curvilinear or simple) or irregularity (complex) of the ground surface leading downslope through the point of interest (Figure 4; Schoenberger, et al, 2002, Wysocki, et al, 2000). Slope Shape is described in two directions: 1) up and down slope [perpendicular (normal) to the contour] and across slope (along the horizional contour) using the terms, linear (L), convex (V), and concave (C) (Figure 5; Schoenberger, et al, 2002, Wysocki, et al, 2000). Hillslope profile position uses two-dimensional descriptors of parts of the line segments (i.e., slope position) along a transect that runs up and down the slope; e.g., backslope or BS and is best applied to transects or points, not areas (Figure 6; Schoenberger, et al, 2002, Wysocki, et al, 2000). Geomorphic component is three dimensional descriptors of parts of landforms or microfeatures that are best applied to areas (figure 7; Schoenberger, et al, 2002, Wysocki, et al, 2000).

Soils of uplands are somewhat poorly to excessively drained, nonhydric and have seasonal saturation below a depth of 12 inches Soils in north central and west Florida soils have thin layers of sand underlain by loamy and clayey materials while peninsular soils are frequently composed entirely of thick layers of sand with

The dominant native vegetation is a variety of small oaks, scattered pines, and wiregrass.

TERRACE LANDFORMS

Terraces are step-like surfaces, bordering a stream that represents the former position of a flood-plain (Bates and Jackson, 1997; Soil Survey Staff, 1996). Native vegetation consists primarily of a mixed mesic hardwood forest.

Soils are mostly somewhat poorly drained, nonhydric, and have seasonal saturation at a depth of 12 to 42 inches.

SUMMARY

Two landscapes occur in Florida: I) Coastal Lowlands and II) Coastal Uplands. Major landforms of the Coastal Lowlands are depressions, flood-plains, flats, flatwoods, rises and knolls. Major landforms of the Coastal Uplands are depressions, flood-plains, terraces, and uplands. Hydric soils are most likely to occur in marshes, depressions, flood-plains, and flats. Conversely, hydric soils are least likely to be on flatwoods, rises, knolls, Terraces, and uplands.

ECOLOGICAL COMMUNITIES OF FLORIDA

G. Wade Hurt and Frank C. Watts

Introduction

The ecological community concept is based on the awareness that a soil type occupies a landform and commonly supports a specific vegetative community. Each specific community may have many different types of soils, but each of these soils has similar characteristics and responds to management similarly. These ecological communities form recognizable units on the landscape, most of which are apparent to the casual observer after only a little training. Even without botanical training, an observer can soon distinguish between pine flatwoods and longleaf pine-turkey oak hills; between upland hardwood hammocks and cypress swamps; and between mangrove swamps and salt marsh. Once the community is recognized, information can be found concerning the general characteristics of the soil in which it occurs and the types of plants and animals that are commonly associated.

For example, more than 50 different soil series occur in the South Florida Flatwoods Ecological Community. All of these soils are seasonally wet and are acid in the surface layer. Some are hydric, however, most are nonhydric. More than 50 soil series occur in the Longleaf Pine - Turkey Oak Hills Ecological Community. All of these soils are droughty, sandy, and nonhydric. Some communities such as Freshwater Marsh and Ponds have more than 100 soil series. These soils are hydric, but the soils range from shallow to very deep and from organic to sandy to clayey. 26 Ecological Communities of Florida

As early as 1970, Florida’s plant and soil scientists of USDA's Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) began to collect existing information on the vegetative communities most often encountered by NRCS personnel in their work. Field studies were conducted, in addition to reviewing research and reference materials. Twenty-six different ecological communities were identified. This is hardly a complete listing of communities occurring in Florida. Strictly aquatic communities (such as rivers, lakes, and bays) were not included, and the 26 identified could obviously be subdivided (or grouped together), depending on which characteristics are of most interest. These 26 communities were selected because knowledge about them would be most useful to individuals (such as wetland delineators) involved in environmental evaluations.

The communities described are those that occur in nature where human influence has not greatly altered them. They have evolved through natural plant succession over long periods. Under this concept, even a cropped field would be expected, with sufficient time, to revert to a specific type of ecological community if human influence was removed. For example, a corn field on a Norfolk soil in northwest Florida would return to the original Mixed Hardwood and Pine Ecological Community within 25 to 50 years if the row cropping was abandoned.

55

A Hontoon soil in south Florida that has been drained and is being used to produce vegetables would revert to its original Freshwater Marsh Ecological Community within only a few years if the drainage ditches were filled. This anticipated reversion is the reason this soil would still be considered hydric even with the presence of the drainage ditches. Another reason is that human influences are often temporal, variable, and the effects are often over estimated. Most drainage, even if maintained annually, affects the duration of seasonal high saturation (SHS) but not the depth to that SHS. Field Identification of Ecological Communities

The following is a brief description of vegetation, landforms, and location of each ecological community within the state. The probability of the occurrence of hydric soils and the SHS range are also discussed. Additional information concerning ecological communities is in 26 Ecological Communities of Florida (Florida Soil Conservation Staff, 1984). Ecological Community No. 1 - North Florida Coastal Strand

North Florida Coastal Strand ecological communities occur on dunes and interdunes along the Atlantic Ocean from north of Sebastian Inlet in Indian River County north to St. Marys River in Nassau County and along the Gulf of Mexico from Perdido Bay in Escambia County to Alligator Point in Franklin County. These communities parallel coastal beaches, bays, and sounds and encompass the area affected by salt spray from the ocean, gulf, and salt water bays.

Few soils (mostly in interdunal swales) that support this community are hydric. S6 (Stripped Matrix) is the most common delineation indicator. Nonhydric soils adjacent to hydric soils usually meet all the requirements of S6 except depth (more than 6 inches). Depth to SHS is highly variable in most nonhydric areas and may be deeper than 80 inches. Ecological Community No. 2 - South Florida Coastal Strand

South Florida Coastal Strand ecological communities occur on dunes and interdunes along the Atlantic Ocean from south of Sebastian Inlet in Indian River County south to Key West in Monroe County and along the Gulf of Mexico from the Anclote River in Pinellas County south to Naples in Collier County. These communities parallel coastal beaches, bays, and sounds and encompass the area affected by salt spray from the ocean, gulf, and salt water bays.

Few soils (mostly in interdunal swales) that support this community are hydric. S6 (Stripped Matrix) is the most common delineation indicator. Nonhydric soils adjacent to hydric soils usually meet all the requirements of S6 except depth (more than 6 inches).

USDA - NATURAL RESOURCES CONSERVATION SERVICE

DETERMINING THE HYDRIC STATUS OF A SOIL

G. Wade Hurt and Michael J. Vepraskas Introduction The National Technical Committee for Hydric Soils (NTCHS) has approved three methods for determining whether a soil is hydric which are: 1) having an official “for use” hydric soil field indicator, 2) meeting the Hydric Soil Technical Standard (HSTS) as defined in this chapter, or, 3) meeting hydric soil criteria 3 (ponding) or criteria 4 (flooding) and the anaerobic conditions requirement of the HSTS as defined in this chapter. Hydric Soil Indicators The first method that can be used to assess whether a particular soil is hydric is to determine if it has an official “for use” hydric soil field indicator. The NTCHS has defined all official field indicators of hydric soils (Hurt and Vasilas, 2006) and considers them to be “test positive.” This means that a soil is hydric if it has an official use indicator. The NTCHS does not consider the field indicators to be “test negative” in that, if an official field indicator is not present, then the soil may still become saturated and anaerobic long enough to be a hydric soil even though it does not have a currently recognized field indicator. For these soils and others that have a hydric status that is questionable, NTCHS developed the HSTS. Hydric Soil Technical Standard The second method to for determining whether a soil is hydric uses the Hydric Soil Technical Standard (HSTS). The HSTS requires that a hydric soil meet two conditions; 1) Anaerobic Conditions and 2) Saturated Conditions. According to NTCHS, the HSTS can be used; 1.) to evaluate weather wetland restoration, mitigation, creation, and construction projects are successful or not, or 2.) to determine whether a soil is hydric or not, or 3.) to validate, invalidate, revise, or add hydric soil indicators regionally. However; if the soil meets an indicator, the HSTS cannot be used to exclude the soil from being considered a hydric soil on a site specific basis on sites which have hydrological alteration. Anaerobic Conditions- Platinum Electrodes The NTCHS has approved three methods to confirm the presence of Anaerobic Conditions. The first of these is confirmation by Redox Potential (Eh) data which are obtained by the installation of platinum electrodes. Platinum electrodes are actually insulated copper wires tipped with platinum and are these available from several commercial vendors. Examples of vendors are Jensen Instruments (2021 S. 7th St., Tacoma, WA 98405 and Cypress Systems (http://www.cypresshome.con/). The University of Florida’s Soil and Water Science Department has soil and wetland scientists who construct platinum electrodes.

63

The HSTS requires that five electrodes are installed at a depth of 25cm in most loamy and clayey soil material, 12.5cm in sandy soil material, and 10cm in soils such as Sharkey in Mississippi and Flemington in Florida that inundate (pond or flood) but do not saturate to a significant depth. Electrodes are installed at the appropriate depth (25cm, 12.5 cm, or 10cm) as measured from the muck (sapric soil material) or mineral surface in Florida and not from the mucky peat (hemic soil material) or peat (fibric soil material) surface.

A reference electrode and a volt meter are also needed. Volt meters are available at most radio and electronic supply stores. Volt meters contain two clips. One clip is connected to the platinum electrode and one to the reference electrode (described below). Both are in contact with the soil. Possible readings range from +1000 to -1000 mv. Remember to set the reading for mv, record the reading including + or - sign, and add approximately 200 to the results. Exact correction values vary with type of electrode, electrolyte, and temperature. There are various reference electrodes available from commercial vendors (mercury, calomel, and silver/silver chloride in varying strengths of KCL). Correction factors are needed to convert voltages measured in the field to redox potentials (Eh values). Eh values are obtained by adding the correction factor to the field reading. Correction factors vary with the type of reference electrode and electrolyte (Light, 1973) as shown in the table below. All correction factors are in millivolts (mv). The most common type of electrode and electrolyte is Silver/Silver Chloride in Saturated KCL.

For a soil to meet the Anaerobic Conditions part of the HSTS based on platinum electrode data Eh measurements of less than or equal to 175mv at pH 7 must exist. Eh requirements are adjusted for in-situ pH on a line with a slope of negative 60. This Eh-pH line is used for soils with a pH of 3-9. When soils become saturated their pH values change and tend to move toward neutral (pH 7). As a result, in-situ values are used to locate the precise point on the Eh/pH line. In-situ pH values are obtained by allowing all the free water to drain from a sample of saturated soil and adding equal amounts (by volume) of soil and deionized water (saturated paste). Values of pH may be obtained by use of commercially available dyes or pH meters. In Florida water pH values cannot be used since water pH values are significantly lower than saturated paste values. The graft of this line is shone on the next page.

64

When the daily Eh values for at least three of the five Pt electrodes indicate that anaerobic conditions exist, then the soil is considered anaerobic for that day. At least 14 consecutive days of anaerobic conditions are normally required. This means that when measurements are made once per week, anaerobic conditions must occur for three consecutive weeks. Anaerobic Conditions- Indication of Reduction in Soils Tubes The second method the NTCHS has approved for confirming the presence of Anaerobic Conditions is the use of Indication of Reduction in Soils (IRIS) tubes. IRIS tubes are 40cm long 1 inch (outside diameter) PVC pipes with the lower 30cm of coated with an iron hydroxide paint. IRIS tubes are available commercially or they may be constructed. Construction details are given in the appendix. IRIS tubes available commercially from: InMass Technologies www.IRISTUBE.com 765-583-4217 Five IRIS tubes are installed vertically such that the coated 30cm is in direct contact with the soil. A soil meets the Anaerobic Conditions part of the standard when at least three of the five IRIS tubes have iron removed from 30% of a zone that is 15cm long. The top of zone of iron removal must be within 15cm of the soil surface for all soils. Anaerobic Conditions- Indication of Reduction using alpha-alpha-Dipyridyl Dye The third method NTCHS has approved to confirm the presence of Anaerobic Conditions is the use of alpha-alpha-Dipyridyl dye. When alpha-alpha-Dipyridyl dye is sprayed onto a soil sample the presence of reduced iron (Fe+2) is confirmed if the sample turns pink or red. For a soil to meet the Anaerobic Conditions part of the standard a positive reaction to alpha-alpha-Dipyridyl is the dominant (60% or more) condition of a specific layer at least 10cm of the upper 30cm for most loamy and clayey soil materials, at least 1/2 of the upper 12.5cm for most sandy soil materials, or at least 1/2 of the upper 10cm for soils such as Sharkey in

Mississippi and Flemington in Florida that inundate (pond or flood) but do not saturate to a significant depth for at least two of the three required samples. Saturated Conditions The NTCHS has approved one method to confirm the presence of Saturated Conditions that uses a combination of wells and piezometers. One open well to 2 m (preferably auto-recording), two piezometers at 25cm and, two piezometers at 100 cm are installed. All are measured at least weekly. Piezometers allow water to enter at the area of interest whereas open wells allow water entry throughout their entire length below the soil surface. For a soil to meet the Saturated Conditions part of the standard, free water has to exist within both of the shallowest piezometers (25 cm). Measurement Period The NTCHS recommends a measurement period of one year; however, the minimum measurement period should capture a dry (moist)-wet-dry (moist) period which includes unsaturated-saturated-unsaturated soil conditions in the zone of soil that must be anaerobic. For peninsular Florida this would be May to December. For portions of the panhandle such as Washington and Holmes counties this may be November to April. Data Assessment For at least 14 consecutive days, Anaerobic Conditions (confirmed by one of the three methods described earlier) and Saturation Conditions must exist for a soil to be considered hydric. The 14 day requirement is met if anaerobic conditions are confirmed at least once per week for three consecutive weeks. Saturated conditions and anaerobic conditions must occur in over half the years (more than 1 in 2 years). Three methods are approved to evaluate precipitation (Sprecher and Warne. 2000): 1. Direct Antecedent Rainfall Method; precipitation data for the three months prior to the most saturated and reduced period are evaluated. 2. Moving Total Antecedent Rainfall Method; precipitation data during the most saturated and reduced period are evaluated. 3. Combining 1 and 2 above (Adjusted Moving Total Antecedent Rainfall Method); precipitation data for the three months prior to and during the most saturated and reduced period are evaluated. An example of the Direct Antecedent Rainfall Method is shown on the nest page. WETS rainfall data are used to establish a range of normal rainfall which has been defined as rainfall amounts between the 30th and 70th percentile of a long-term data record. WETS data are available for thousands of locations nationwide at the NRCS, National Water and Climate Center (http://www.wcc.nrcs.usda.gov/water/ wetlands.html) The NTCHS, although it approved the three methods of evaluating precipitation, recommends that the first (Direct Antecedent Rainfall Method) be utilized. For that reason an example of the Direct Antecedent Rainfall Method is provided (next page) and examples of the other two methods are not provided.

Hydric Soil Criteria 3 or 4 and Anaerobic Conditions The third method to name a particular soil hydric is that it meets hydric soil criteria 3 (ponding) or criteria 4 (flooding) and meets the anaerobic conditions requirements of the HSTS defined above. Anaerobic conditions can be confirmed by either Redox Potential (Eh) data which are obtained by the installation of platinum electrodes, or IRIS tubes data, or alpha-alpha-Dipyridyl dye data. Criteria 3 and 4 require that the inundation (either ponding or flowing) be of long or very long duration during the growing season. “Long” is more than 7 days and “very long” is more than 30 days (Soil Survey Division Staff, 1993). Inundation data collected to prove that either of the two criteria is met must be during the growing season. Florida has three growing season regimes. The first is south of a line from Florida City to Everglades City where the growing season is from January through December. The second growing season regime is north of the line described above to a line from Cedar Key, through Gainesville, to St. Augustine where the growing season is from February to December. The third regime is north of the Cedar Key to St. Augustine line where the growing season is from February to October. Data collected during the non-growing season do not suffice for proving that inundation of at least 7 days occurred. Summary There are three methods for determining that a soil is hydric: 1) it has an official for use hydric soil field indicator, 2) it meets the Hydric Soil Technical Standard (HSTS) as defined in this chapter, or, 3) it meets hydric soil criteria 3 (ponding) or criteria 4 (flooding) and the anaerobic conditions requirement of the HSTS. Each of these methods has specific requirements and must occur during an acceptable rainfall period. Although, a given site will not have acceptable normal climatic conditions each year, an acceptable period will probably be found in most years if the monitoring period is long enough. The HSTS is an appropriate method to use to update field indicators of hydric soils in the United States (Hurt and Vasilas, 2006) had to be developed. This method is available for use.

Appendix Quick (7 day) IRIS Tube Paint Recipe and Construction Procedure

by: Martin C. Rabenhorst,

University of Maryland, Dep. of Environmental Science and Technology

1. Dissolve 16g of anhydrous FeCl3 in 0.5 L of distilled water (approximately 0.2M) in a 2 L beaker. Add a magnetic stir bar and place on a magnetic stirrer. The initial pH of this solution will be approximately 1.6. While stirring, monitor the pH as you add approximately 370 mL of 1M KOH until you reach a pH of 12 (use pH buffers of 7 and 10 (or higher) to standardize the pH meter rather than 4 and 7). At around pH 4, the Fe oxides will begin to precipitate rapidly and the suspension will become very thick. You will need to speed up the stir bar and continue to adjust it in order to maintain a stirred suspension. Continue adding the KOH until the pH reaches 12.0, adding it more slowly and carefully as you approach the final pH. Allow the suspension to stand for approximately 30 minutes, then restart the stirring and check the pH. If it has dropped below 12.0, add additional KOH dropwise to bring it back to the target pH. The total volume of suspension should be approximately 900 mL. 2. Transfer the suspension equally into four 250 mL nalgene bottles and centrifuge at approximately 1000 rpm for 5 min to concentrate the Fe oxides. Discard the supernatant. Transfer the contents of the four tubes into two 250 mL tubes and centrifuge wash the precipitated Fe oxide 2 times with distilled water, discarding the supernatant each time. 3. After the 3rd centrifugation, resuspend the Fe oxides with distilled water and transfer to dialysis tubing. Place the dialysis tubing into basins filled with distilled water and replace the water at approximately 6 hr intervals during the first day and then at approximately 12 hr intervals for a total of 3 days. Transfer the Fe oxides from the dialysis tubing to a nalgene storage bottle and keep in the dark. The suspension should be suitable for painting IRIS tubes approximately 1 week (7 days) after the initial synthesis of the Fe oxides (this will vary based upon a number of factors including laboratory and storage temperature). 4. To get the paint to the right consistency, place the paint in a 250 mL centrifuge bottle and centrifuge at approximately 1000 to 1500 rpm for approximately 5 minutes. After centrifugation, decant the supernatant so that there is approximately the same volume of supernatant as the volume of the Fe oxide “cake” at the bottom of the bottle (see figure). Then thoroughly resuspend the Fe oxide and the paint should be at approximately the correct consistency for painting tubes. 5. Paint is applied to the tubes (½ inch schedule 40 PVC that has been cleaned with acetone to remove ink and lightly sanded with very fine sandpaper) using a 2" foam brush while the tube is spun using a cordless drill (typically we use 60 cm tubes and paint the lower 50 cm). Before painting a large number of tubes, be sure to test the paint by painting one or two prepared PVC IRIS tubes and allowing the paint to dry overnight. If the paint on the tubes is resistant to abrasion (does not rub off easily on your fingers) then proceed to paint and prepare IRIS tubes. 6. Once the paint has been tested, it should be stored in the refrigerator to minimize mineralogical alteration over time (Rabenhorst and Burch, 2006). Approximate shelf life when stored cold (refrigerated) is a couple of months. Tubes that have been painted have a long shelf life (a year or perhaps even up to several years) as long as they are kept dry.

SOIL MORPHOLOGY

Joseph N. Schuster

Hydric soils are identified in the field by the near surface morphology of the soil. Soil MORPHOLOGY refers to the characteristics that soils have formed from or are inherited from the parent material and that can be observed. Only morphological indicators that are easily observed or measured in the field should be used to identify hydric soils. Where quantitative estimations of morphological components result in borderline or inconclusive determinations, the advice of a professional soil scientist should be sought. Although identification of soil morphology can be conducted at any soil moisture condition, hydric soil morphology is determined in the moist condition. The primary morphological unit in a soil is called a HORIZON. A soil horizon is a layer that is nearly parallel to the soil surface. The combined set of soil horizons from the soil surface to the lower depth of the soil description is called the soil PROFILE. Some soil horizons are easy to distinguish from another horizon that lies above or below because there is a sharp boundary between the two layers. Other horizons change so gradually with depth that it is difficult to determine their boundaries. During a soil investigation the soil scientist has the option of lumping together horizons containing only slight dissimilarities, or subdividing the soil profile into many thin horizons. It is generally advantageous to use more horizon subdivisions for a hydric soil investigation. Soil is composed of five basic components which include minerals, organic matter, gasses, water, and living organisms. Morphological characteristics based upon each of these components can be observed and described, however the morphology of mineral and organic soil material is the most useful for identifying the presence of hydric soil indicators. Visual and tactile assessment are most commonly used to identify and describe soil morphology, however field detection of odor is used to identify the presence of gaseous components of the soil such as the presence of hydrogen sulfide gas. Soil Minerals, Particle Size, and Texture Mineral material is the most abundant component of most soils. Two important ways to classify minerals are by the SIZE of the mineral particle and by the TYPE of the mineral particle. Although mineral type is very important, many of the physical properties of the soil are size dependent. The three basic sizes of soil mineral particles are SAND size, SILT size, and CLAY size. Each basic particle size has distinguishing properties that can be observed even when the individual particles cannot be seen. Sand, Silt, and Clay size particles comprise the FINE EARTH fraction of soil material, whereas larger sizes of minerals which are greater than 2.0 mm in diameter are called COARSE FRAGMENTS. Most Florida soils contain few coarse fragments and therefore coarse fragments will not be discussed in this chapter.

71

Sand size minerals are predominantly smaller particles weathered from larger rocks. Sand is the largest soil particle, ranging in size from 0.05 millimeters to 2.0 millimeters in diameter. Individual sand particles can be seen by the naked eye. Sand feels gritty when rubbed, and barely holds together when moist. Water moves through sand rapidly to very rapidly. Quartz is the dominant type of mineral of most sand size particles in Florida and it is nearly inert (it has very low chemical activity). Sand supplies few or no nutrients to plants. The sand particle can be subdivided into more detailed classes. These are very coarse sand (1.0 -2.0 mm), coarse sand (0.5-1.0mm), medium sand (0.25-0.5mm), fine sand (0.1-0.25mm), and very fine sand (0.05-0.1mm). Individual particles of very fine sand are so small that is difficult to see them without the aid of a magnifying glass. Fine sand and medium sand (medium sand is referred to simply as "sand") are the most common of the sand sizes that are found in Florida soils. Coarser sands are not as common in Florida soils and are more likely found on beaches, banks of swift flowing rivers and in soils formed from parent materials deposited in these types of paleoenvironments. The SILT sized particle is intermediate in diameter between sand and clay. The diameter of an individual silt particle is 0.002 to 0.05 millimeters. Individual particles of silt are difficult to see without magnification. When moist, silt feels smooth and silky and when dry it resembles flour. It holds together well when molded, but cannot be formed into a RIBBON (a ribbon is a thin, flat, elongated form that can be molded from materials containing clay). Silt is somewhat chemically active. In Florida, soils dominated by silt are not common. Silt particles are primarily found on the floodplains of large rivers, in some tidal marshes, and in broad areas of the southernmost part of the Florida Peninsula. The smallest soil mineral particle is the CLAY sized particle. Individual particles of clay have diameters that are smaller than 0.002 millimeters. Individual particles of clay are so small that they can only be viewed using powerful microscopes. Clay is chemically active, and may provide a large amount of nutrients to plants. Water moves slowly through materials dominated by clay particles. Clay is easily molded into shapes, or into a long ribbon that will hold together without easily breaking. It is often sticky when moist depending on the mineralogy. Nearly all soil materials are a mixture of the three particle sizes. For example, a sample obtained from a specific soil horizon might contain soil material that is 75 percent sand, 10 percent silt, and 15 percent clay. We refer to this mixture of particle sizes as particle size distribution, or more commonly, SOIL TEXTURE. Soil texture can be accurately determined in the laboratory using various measurement techniques or soil texture can be estimated in the field by rubbing a moist sample between the fingers. It is generally impractical, time consuming, and costly to send site investigation samples to the laboratory; however with practice, the tactile field method, also called the touch texture method, can be quite accurate. This is the standard method for determining soil texture when conducting soil surveys or making hydric soil determinations. Because each different size of mineral particle has unique properties, soil material that is a mixture of sand, silt, and clay will have properties that are influenced by each of the different particle sizes. For example, soil material that is 40 percent sand, 40 percent silt, and 20 percent clay will have some grittiness, like sand; some stickiness, like clay, and be able to hold a substantial amount of water, like silt. The USDA SOIL TEXTURE TRIANGLE (see textural triangle on next page) is a 3-axis graph that groups soil texture distributions into twelve classes. A LOAM is a mixed textural class that has properties nearly equally derived from each of the three particle sizes. Loam is somewhat gritty, a bit sticky, yet also

72

smooth when rubbed. It contains 7 to 27 percent clay, 28 to 50 percent silt, and less than 52 percent sand. The Loam class is located at the lower center of the textural triangle. Other textural classes are positioned to the left, right, or above the loam class on the textural triangle. Classes to the left of loam contain a higher percentage of sand particles; classes to the right contain a higher percentage of silt particles and classes above contain a higher percentage of clay particles. For soil materials that are dominantly sand, dominantly silt, or dominantly clay, there are soil textural classes by the same name as the dominant particle: the SAND class, the SILT class, and the CLAY class. The SAND textural class contains mostly sand particles, but may contain some silt particles and clay particles. Similarly, the SILT textural class contains mostly silt particles, and the CLAY textural class contains mostly clay particles. Other soil textural classes include SILT LOAM, CLAY LOAM, and SANDY LOAM; LOAMY SAND, SANDY CLAY, and SILTY CLAY; SANDY CLAY LOAM and SILTY CLAY LOAM. The most common soil textures in Florida are fine sand, sand, loamy fine sand, loamy sand, fine sandy loam, sandy loam, sandy clay loam, and sandy clay. Less frequently, the textures clay, clay loam, and loam are encountered. In most parts of the state, it is extremely rare to find soil materials with textures silt loam, silty clay loam, silty clay, and silt. Note that the most commonly encountered soil textures in Florida soils are those depicted on the lower left corner of the USDA textural triangle.

73

Only the textural classes sand, loamy sand, and sandy loam are modified by the sand size subdivisions. Examples of the modified classes are fine sand, loamy very fine sand, loamy coarse sand, and very fine sandy loam. Mineral particles that have a diameter greater than 2.0 millimeters are called coarse fragments. Coarse fragments include gravels, boulders, and stones. While coarse fragments are not counted towards the percentage of soil mineral particles in the textural classification, they can be used as a modifier. For example, a sample of soil having a texture of sandy loam and containing an additional 15 percent of gravels (by volume, not weight), is called a GRAVELLY sandy loam. If the sample contains a minimum of 35 percent gravels, the modified textural classification would be VERY GRAVELLY sandy loam. Coarse fragment modified soil textures are not common in the surfaces of most Florida soils. Two textural categories are used to determine the set of indicators that are applied when conducting a hydric soil investigation. These are not true categories of the USDA Soil Textural Classification system, but categories developed specifically for the use of hydric soil indicators. In this grouping, SANDY soils are comprised of material that has a USDA soil texture of loamy fine sand and coarser. LOAMY AND CLAYEY soils are comprised of material that has a texture of loamy very fine sand and finer. A third category is not texture dependent, and called ALL SOILS. Engineering and geology disciplines use particle size classification systems that differ considerably from the USDA system. Each system has advantages and disadvantages, however most classification schemes were developed for specific groups of applications. For describing soil morphology, only the USDA system should be used.

Relationship of Particle Size Classes of Five Different Systems (excerpted from USDA Soil Survey Manual, 1993) When estimating the soil textural class by the touch texture method, the sample must be moist. A moist sample will not become significantly darker when water is added to the sample, and it will not glisten. A sample that is too wet will glisten in the sunlight, or the water puddles on the sample. If the soil material is too wet, it should be allowed to dry. If the soil material is too dry, it should be moistened, preferably using a misting bottle or other systems that delivers water in small doses. Avoid using dry or wet soil material because samples at this moisture content do not feel the same as moist soil material, and the texture estimation will likely be incorrect.

74

75

The moist soil material should then be manipulated by thumb and forefinger. Observe how gritty the sample feels when rubbed, and how well the sample holds together. Note the length of a molded ribbon that can be formed, and if the sample feels silky or sticky. Use the textural flow chart guide provided (on the previous page) to assist with tactile recognition. Proficiency in touch texturing is possible only with experience and practice. The flow chart should be used to determine textural groups in conjunction with the textural triangle. Soil samples with known laboratory determined particle size distribution can be valuable learning tools for reference. Soil Organic Matter ORGANIC MATTER is the second solid component of soils. Organic matter consists primarily of a heterogeneous mixture of plant debris in various states of decay or transformation facilitated by microbial and chemical processes. Since most organic matter is derived from plants, it is concentrated predominantly on the soil surface. Soil organic matter has a profound effect on soil morphology, especially in the soil surface where the soil is examined to determine if hydric soil morphology is present. The soil layer called topsoil is a mineral layer that is dark colored because it contains a relatively small amount of well decayed organic matter, generally less than 2 percent. Organic matter is normally black or brownish colored and so it imparts a black or brownish color to the soil. Organic matter is also recognized by its tactile characteristics. Well decomposed organic matter feels smooth and silky, much like the tactile properties of the silt particle. Percent Organic Carbon is the measurement standard used in the classification of solid soil material containing organic matter. Where the percentage of clay is 0, the impact of organic material on the classification of solid soil materials is as follows: soil materials containing less than 5 percent organic carbon matter are mineral soils materials; organic modified mineral material contains 5 to 12 percent organic carbon and organic soil material which contains greater than 12 percent organic matter (see chart in Glossary). As clay content increases in the mineral fraction, the organic carbon content requirement increases. For more detail on this relationship, please refer to the glossary in the Hydric Soils Manual of Florida. In dry sandy soils, very little organic matter accumulates in the topsoil and there is a corresponding lack of black or brownish coloration to the topsoil. In contrast, wet soils often have dark colored layers containing large amounts of organic matter. Some wet soils, especially those in swamps and marshes, have thick horizons of organic soil material. This morphological relationship that correlates soil drainage with organic matter content is the foundation for many of the hydric soil indicators. Hydric soil indicators based upon the relationship of soil wetness and organic matter are called CARBON FEATURES. MUCK and PEAT are terms used to describe organic soil materials based upon their degree of decomposition. Peat is a type of organic soil material in which individual fragments of material are easily determined to be derived from living plants. In many cases the type of plant from which the peat formed can be determined. Muck is used to describe a greater state of decay than peat, and it cannot be determined by visual field observation that the material formed from decomposed plant debris. Mucky Peat is an organic soil material where the state of decomposition is intermediate between muck and peat. Most organic soil materials in Florida are classified as muck, although many Florida soils also have a thin layer of peat on the surface. It is important to remember that texture refers to mineral soil materials only, but if the soil material is muck or peat, it is used in place of texture. If a sandy soil material

76

contains about 5 to 12 percent organic matter (depending on clay content of the mineral fraction), the terms MUCKY or PEATY are used as textural modifiers. For example, a mineral soil material with the texture fine sand, and containing about 10 percent organic carbon would be called MUCKY FINE SAND. Where a soil surface layer comprised of organic soil material is greater than about 8 to 24 inches, this layer is called a HISTIC EPIPEDON. If more than about half of the upper 32 inches of the soil is comprised of organic soil material, the soil is classified as a HISTISOL or an ORGANIC SOIL. For more specific information concerning the classification of histic epipedons and Histosols, please refer to Soil Taxonomy (Soil Survey Staff, 1999). Although organic carbon content generally decreases with depth in mineral soils, there are several important exceptions in Florida soils. Soil surfaces can become buried by sedimentation caused by natural or accelerated erosion. Sedimentation that occurs as a result of flooding can create stratified layers of mineral soil material with organic or mucky mineral soil material creating the hydric soil indicator A5-Stratified Layers. A subsoil increase in organic carbon is also present in soils of the taxonomic order of SPODOSOLS, and in soils that are transitional between Spodosols and some other soil order. The spodic horizon and similar subsoil horizons have sand grains that are made cohesive to varying degrees by solid coatings of humic acids complexed with aluminum, with or without iron. The humic complexes are leached from decomposing organic debris, much like dark colored liquid dissolved in water from a tea bag or coffee grounds. Spodosols are common in many areas throughout Florida, comprising an estimated 8.4 million acres throughout the state (Carlisle and Brown, 1982). Although the majority of Florida Spodosols are poorly drained, the presence of a spodic horizon is neither a hydric soil indicator nor an indicator of the depth to seasonal high saturation (SHS). Soil Color Soil color is likely the most easily observed descriptor of soil morphology and it is an indicator for a wide range of soil properties. Soil scientists describe both the color of the MATRIX for each horizon, and the color of any contrasting features lying within the matrix. Certain colors or color patterns can be correlated with soil properties such as organic matter content, soil drainage and mineralogy. Black or brownish colors are characteristic of organic rich surface horizons or spodic horizons. Lighter colored surface horizons are often correlated with drier soils, and darker colored surface horizons are more likely in wetter soils. Uniformly red colors are typically indicative of better drainage, whereas gray, blue or green colors are indicative of wet soil conditions. The attributes of color patterns can also be an indication of soil properties. Vertical linear or dendritic features suggest association with plants roots. Concentrations of reddish or yellowish hued ferric iron along root rhizospheres indicate at least periodic saturation. Horizontal features with sharp boundaries in contrasting colors sometimes suggest the influence of depositional events. Sharp boundaries between rounded features and the matrix can suggest relict conditions not associated with contemporary soil drainage. More gradual feature boundaries such as those expressed as halos of yellower hues encompassing reddish hued redoximorphic features are reliable indicators of SHS and an important component of the Sandy Redox hydric soil indicator (Hurt and Vasilas, 1996). For some carbon features sharp boundaries between the matrix and the feature or between features can disqualify a feature from being used as a hydric soil indicator. For example, the Stripped Matrix hydric soil indicator requires a diffuse splotchy pattern between areas of two or more colors.

77

Because an individual’s perception of color names differs between observers, soil scientists utilize a standard reference and notation for describing soil color. The MUNSELL® color system utilizes a standard set of color plates and three descriptive elements called HUE, VALUE, and CHROMA (Gretag-Macbeth. 2000). For example, in the Munsell color ‘10R 4/5’, 10R is the hue, 4 is the value, and 5 is the chroma. The individual colors in this system are organized into a book of color plates, or “chips” called the Munsell Color Book. Pages of chips are similar to color strips used by paint stores. Hue identifies the basic spectral color or wavelength (the relationship to the colors Red, Yellow, Green, Blue and Purple). In soils, these are the hues Red, designated by a capital R and Yellow, designated by a capital Y. Halfway between the Hue R and the Hue Y, is the hue YR, which represents yellow-red. Each hue consists of a different page in the Munsell color book. All of the colors on a single page have the same hue. The basic hues are supplemented by several intermediate hues. The typical hues in progression from red to yellow are 10R, 2.5YR, 5YR, 7.5YR, 10YR, 2.5Y and 5Y. There are two supplemental pages in the Munsell charts called the GLEY pages. These pages group many of the grayish, bluish, and greenish colors often found in very wet mineral soils. The gley chart contains several hues on one page which are indicated at the bottom of each column of color chips. Page Gley 1 contains only chips that have chroma 1 or 0 except for a column of hue 5G that is chroma 2; page Gley 2 contains only chips that have chroma 1. Where the chroma is 0, the hue and chroma are neutral and Munsell colors are designated by the capital letter N followed by the value as in the example color “N4”. In older versions of the Munsell Color Book, colors with chroma of 0 appear on some of the single hue pages. Since neutral colors have chroma 0 and no hue, they could appear as the first column on any Munsell page if there was space. Value indicates the degree of lightness or darkness. Note in the Neutral column on page Gley 1, that value increases from black at the bottom of the page, through the grays, to nearly white at the top of the page. Pure white has a value of 10 in the Munsell scale and pure black has a value of 0. Chroma is the relative strength or purity of the color. As chroma increases, the color becomes more intense. The scales of chroma extend from 0, which indicates no strength, or the lack of spectral color, to 20 which has the greatest amount of spectral color. In soil colors, chroma ranges from 0 to 8. Recall that when chroma equals 0, the hue is classified as neutral and therefore specified as "N" in the notation. That means for example that the color 2.5YR 3/0 is exactly the same color as 7.5YR 3/0, but the Munsell expression should be written N3. When measuring soil color, the observer should stand with the sun to their back. Sunglasses or any type of tinted lenses should not be worn. Very early morning or late afternoon measurements are not accurate and should be avoided. Measurements should not be taken under artificial light. The sample should be moist (does not become darker when water is added), never dried out, but not too wet (sample does not glisten in sunlight). The sample should be placed behind the holes on the color chart and compared to the color chip that is most like the color of the soil sample. It is understood that an exact match is not likely, but that the closest color match will be used. For hydric soil determinations, a decimal approximation must be used and the color is never round to the nearest value or chroma because many of the indicators contain “equal to or less than” expressions. For example, if the hue is 10YR, the value is 4, and the chroma is approximately halfway between 2 and 3, the color should be written as 10YR 4/2.5. When using the Munsell Color Book in Florida, it is usually best to start on the 10YR page and make page turns to the left if the hue is not red enough, or make page turns to the right if the hue is not

78

yellow enough. When the closest match is found, write the color notation using the hue (page) first, followed by value (left column), then write a slash, followed by the chroma (look to the bottom of the page); for example, "10YR 4/4". Care must be exercised to keep the color chips clean. The Munsell Book must be used in its original form, meaning that no photocopies, laminated copies, or approximations should be used. The Munsell Color Book is easily obtained from companies that sell forestry or environmental supplies. CONTRAST is the visual distinction between the matrix and a feature or between two features. Three USDA classes of contrast are FAINT, DISTINCT, and PROMINENT. Faint contrast is evident only on close examination. Hue is usually the same, but chroma differs by 1 or 2 units and value is typically differs within 1 unit. Distinct contrast is easily observed though hue is typically the same between features or a feature and the matrix. Value or chroma differences are typically 2 to 4 units. Where hue differs by up to one page, value or chroma should not differ by more than 1 unit of chroma or 2 units of value. Prominent contrast is easily observed as a strong difference in color and often detected at some distance between the observer and the soil profile or sample. If value and chroma are similar, then hue varies by 2 or more pages. If hue is similar, then chroma or value differ by 4 or more units. The QUANTITY of features is also classified in three USDA classes. These classes are FEW, COMMON, and MANY. ”Few” is used when features occupy less than 2 percent of the surface area. “Common” is used when features occupy 2 to 20 percent of the surface area, and “many” indicates that features are greater than 20 percent. Some hydric soil indicators rely on estimations of quantities that are greater than 20 percent. For example, The S7-Dark Surface indicator which requires that 70 percent of visible soil particles must be covered with organic material. The Charts for Estimating Proportions of Mottles and Coarse Fragments appears in the front of the Munsell Soil Color Charts and is an excellent reference. The chart provides examples of 12 different quantities as percentage of surface area occupied. Although there are many additional characteristics of soil morphology that can be described, only those characteristics that are important for the identification of hydric soil indicators have been discussed in this chapter. Additional descriptors of soil morphology can be found in the USDA Soil Survey Manual and other references. References Carlisle, V.W. and R.B. Brown (eds.) 1982. Florida Soil Identification Handbook.

THE SOIL PROFILE AND HORIZON DESIGNATIONS

Joseph N. Schuster

The PEDON is the smallest 3-dimensional body of soil that can be classified (Soil Survey Staff, 1999). The SOIL PROFILE is a 2-dimensional vertical side or section of the pedon. The soil profile is comprised of nearly parallel layers called HORIZONS.

The description of a soil profile consists primarily of descriptions of its horizons. For each soil horizon,

the foundation of the description is the beginning and ending depth or the horizon, the color of the matrix and features lying within the matrix, and the texture or organic classification of the horizon. Other descriptors include the distinctness of the boundaries between horizons, the nature and alignment of features, type and degree of structural aggregation, consistence of the material, biological features, and many other morphological characteristics that have formed or have been inherited from the parent material. The process by which the soil forms from parent material is called PEDOGENESIS.

Soil profiles and their morphology are best observed in freshly excavated pits although they are also

studied in road cuts, old barrow pits, and other types of excavations. Although only the upper horizons are observed for identification of hydric soils morphology, the concept of soil profile descriptions and horizon designations is more easily understood describing entire soil profiles

Each of the major horizons, called MASTER horizons, is associated either with a specific expression

of pedogenic processes or the absence of pedogenic morphology (Soil Survey Division Staff, 1993). The A horizon for example, is a mineral layer characterized by the addition or accumulation of organic matter. The master horizons are designated by a capital letter of the alphabet and can be defined more precisely using one or more lower case alphabetic character suffixes as in the example of the Bt horizon. Each master horizon or subordinated master horizon can be numbered sequentially if necessary as in the example: Bt1, Bt2. Transitional horizons are designated by combining two master horizons when a layer exhibits properties of two different master horizons as in example of the AB horizon (the AB horizon would have properties similar to both an A horizon and a B horizon, but slightly more similar to the A horizon; where the horizon is more similar to a B, the designation would be BA).

Some additional symbols are used for special cases. A prime symbol is used to designate a second

occurrence of a master horizon as in the example: A, E, Bt, E’, B’t, BC, C. Double or triple prime symbols may be used for additional occurrences of the same master horizon. An Arabic number proceeding a master or subordinated horizon is used to indicate a lithologic continuity or abrupt change in parent material. For example, in the sequence A, C1, C2, 2Ab, 2Eb, 2Btb, 2C, the A-C sequence might be describing a profile formed in recent wind blown sands over a more stable profile formed in near shore coastal deposits. The use of a / (forward slash) between two master horizons indicates the occurrence of discrete areas from each specified horizon intermingled in one horizon. In the example A/E, there is a mixture of material from both the

80

A horizon and the E horizon in one layer. The dominant material is designated first; in the preceding example, there is more A horizon material than E horizon material in the A/E horizon. By convention, transitional horizons and horizons utilizing a forward slash are typically not subordinated by a suffix. Master Horizon Designation for Soil Profiles

Prior to 1982, an older system of horizons designations was utilized in soil descriptions. Florida soil surveys published prior to 1986 used the old system of horizon designations. In the current system, the capital letters O, A, E, B, C, L, R and W represent the master horizons (USDA-NRCS, 2002). The master horizons are defined as follows: O Horizons - Layers dominated by organic soil material, except limnic layers that are organic. Nearly all

mucky O horizons are saturated with water for long periods or were once saturated but are now artificially drained; Peat and Mucky Peat O horizons can be present both in hydric and upland soil profiles.

A Horizons - Mineral horizons darkened to varying degrees by accumulation of organic matter, and formed

at the surface or below an O horizon. In areas developed by humans they exhibit properties resulting from cultivation, pasturing, or similar kinds of disturbance.

E Horizons - Mineral horizons characterized by the loss of silicate clay, iron, aluminum, or other

substances resulting in a zone that contains less of the leached substance than in the layer below. E horizons are often lighter in color than the layers above and below, and an E horizon can only be designated if underlain at some depth by a B horizon.

B Horizons - Horizons characterized by an accumulation of silicate clay, iron, aluminum, humus,

carbonates, gypsum, or silica, alone or in combination; (2) evidence of removal of carbonates; (3) residual concentration of sesquioxides; (4) coatings of sesquioxides that often make the horizon conspicuously lower in value, higher in chroma, or redder in hue than overlying and underlying horizons without apparent illuviation of iron; (5) alteration that forms silicate clay or liberates oxides or both and that forms granular, blocky, or prismatic structure if volume changes accompany changes in moisture content; or (6) brittleness. In the mineral soil, the B horizon exhibits the maximum expression of pedogenesis.

C Horizons - Non-pedogenic horizons or layers, excluding hard bedrock, that are little affected by soil

forming processes and lack properties of O, A, E, or B horizons. The material of C layers may be either like or unlike that from which the solum presumably formed. The C horizon may have been altered; however it lacks evidence of pedogenesis. Some C horizons consist of weathered bedrock that still exhibits rock structure.

R Layers - A non-pedogenic layer comprised of hard consolidated bedrock. W Layers - A non-pedogenic layer of water in the profiles, in liquid or frozen form, excluding water

above the soil surface. L Horizons - Limnic Horizon. Sediments accumulated in a subaqueous or tidal environments

consisting of organic materials derived from aquatic plants, animals, bacteria and fecal material (marl). In Florida, modern marl formation occurs only in soil surfaces in the

81

extreme southern portion of the state. Paleo-accumulations of marl and diatomaceous earth are present in soils and strata throughout the state.

Suffix Designations for Master Soil Horizons

The following suffixes are typically used to subordinate the master horizon in Florida soils:

Organic Soil Materials; used only with an O horizon: a - Highly decomposed organic materials; sapric soil material (muck). e - Organic material of intermediate decomposition; hemic soil material (mucky peat). i - Slightly decomposed organic materials; fibric soil material (peat). Mineral Soil Materials: b - Buried genetic horizon c - Concretions or nodules d - Physical root restriction caused by natural or human compaction. g - Strong graying or gleying typically indicative of prolonged saturation and anaerobic

conditions h Illuvial accumulation of organic matter. Used with B to designate Spodic horizon or layer

transitional to a spodic horizon. j - Jarosite accumulation. Iron sulfate mineral often indicative of current or past acid sulfate

conditions. k - Pedogenic accumulation of carbonates. m - Cementation or induration p - Tillage or other disturbance. Only used with the A horizon. r - Weathered or soft bedrock. Used only with C horizon. s - Illuvial accumulation of sesquioxides and organic matter. Used to designate another type of spodic horizon that is generally not recognized in Florida. ss - Presence of slickensides. Found in soils with high content of shrink-swell clays.

Slickensides are not common in Florida. t - Accumulation of silicate clay. Used only with B horizon. v - Plinthite. Iron rich mass that hardens to ironstone when exposed to air. w - Development of color or structure The following suffixes are not used in Florida: s - Residual accumulation of sesquioxides y - Accumulation of gypsum z - Accumulation of salts more soluble than gypsum f - Permanently frozen soil or ice; continuous ice ff - Permanently frozen soil; no continuous ice jj - Evidence of cryotubation n - Accumulation of sodium q - Accumulation of silica x - Fragipan character

82

Classification and Typical Horizon Sequences of Soil Orders in Florida Soils are classified in a hierarchical system called SOIL TAXONOMY (Soil Survey Staff, 1999). Soil orders commonly found in Florida are discussed briefly below. HISTISOLS. These are the organic soils (they are almost always very wet soils). The formative suffix for this order is ist, as in the suborder Saprist. ENTISOLS. These are weakly developed soils or soils that are sandy throughout. The formative suffix for this order is ent, as in the suborder Aquent. SPODOSOLS. These are sandy soils with a subsoil accumulation of organic acids called a spodic horizon. The spodic horizon is sometimes called an organic hardpan, but this term should be used carefully because not all spodic horizons are hard and dense. Myakka fine sand, the state soil of Florida, is a Spodosol. The formative suffix for this order is od, as in the suborder Aquod. MOLLISOLS. These are alkaline or non-acid soils with thick black surfaces. In Florida, they are usually wet soils. The formative suffix for this order is oll, as in the suborder Aquoll. INCEPTISOLS. In Florida, these are essentially soils that do not fit well into the other soil orders. It includes soils similar to Mollisols that are acid instead of alkaline and some floodplain soils. The formative suffix for this order is ept, as in the suborder Aquept. ALFISOLS and ULTISOLS. These are soils with loamy or clayey subsoils that underlie horizons with less clay. Alfisols have higher base saturation in the subsoil (typically alkaline) and Ultisols have lower base saturation in the subsoils (typically acid). The formative suffixes are alf and ult, as in the suborders Aqualfs and Aquults. Typical Horizon Sequences Each of the Florida soil orders has a typical sequence of horizons. It must be stressed however that numerous variations of the basic sequence are possible. For the sequences given below, those horizon designations (or parts of the designation) delineated in bold, are most diagnostic for the specified soil order. Histosols Oa, Oe, C1, C2. Entisols A, C1, C2, C3. Spodosols A, E, Bh1, Bh2, BC, C. Mollisols Ap, A1, A2, AC, C. Inceptisols Ap, E, Bw, BC, C. Alfisols and Ultisols Ap, E1, E2, Bt1, Bt2, BC. Major Epipedons of Florida Soils EPIPEDONS consist of the horizons that form at the soil surface and include the upper part of the soil that is darkened by organic matter or the upper eluvial horizons or both. There are specific surface and subsurface horizons that are diagnostic for describing certain soils as follows:

83

A. Surface: Major Features: (1) Mollic epipedon Thick; dark colored; high base saturation; (2) Umbric epipedon Same as Mollic except low base saturation (3) Ochric epipedon Light colored; low organic matter content; too thin to be Mollic,

Umbric, or Histic (4) Histic epipedon Very high organic matter content; typically wet during some part of

the year Horizon Designations for Organic Materials and Limnic Materials

Horizon designations for organic horizons and Limnic materials differ from those of mineral soils as follows: A. Organic Layers:

Oa - Sapric (highly decomposed) Oe - Hemic (intermediate decomposition) Oi - Fibric (minimum decomposition)

B. Limnic Materials:

Lk - Marl Lco - Coprogenous earth (sedimentary) Ldi - Diatomaceous earth

SOIL SURVEY

Joseph N. Schuster

A soil survey is a set of soil maps and accompanying attributes for the kinds of soils depicted on the maps. This definition excludes soil maps that only depict single or limited attributes. Since the origin of the earliest US soil survey program began in the late 1800’s, the soil survey has evolved from generalized small scale maps to the modern digital iteration. The most common form of the soil survey is prepared according to the guidelines of the National Cooperative Soil Survey Program (NCSS). The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) leads NCSS efforts to produce the soil survey. The well known NRCS product is typically produced for county-wide service areas, and consists of a book containing soil maps and attribute data in text and tabular form. In the NRCS soil survey, the spatial extent of different kinds of soils are depicted on black and white aerial photography as base maps at scales ranging from 1:12,000 to 1:24,000. In recent years, digital soil surveys have supplemented or replaced the published editions.

The entity that is mapped, or the kind of soil that is delineated, is called the MAP UNIT. The map unit

is typically comprised of one or more SOIL SERIES. Although the soil series lies outside the classification system of Soil Taxonomy, it is in some respects the most detailed level of that system. The most detailed recognized class of Soil Taxonomy is the FAMILY. Typically the soil series is a subset of the family, grouping soils with properties that exhibit minor morphological or interpretive distinctions from other series in the same family. The differences between soil series in the same family are often not pedogenetically significant. The map unit also has a PHASE attached which more specifically defines some interpretive aspect of the map unit. Common types of phases include slope class, characterization of coarse fragments on the surface, and flooding frequency. The default phase is the texture of the soil surface. Taxonomic categories higher than the family level are frequently used in map units of generalized small scale soil survey maps.

The soil series is named after a geographic location such as the name of a town or water body, and it is

linked with the phase to define the map unit name as in the map unit “Myakka fine sand”. In this example, “Myakka” is the series name and “fine sand” is the surface texture phase. The map unit must be designed in such a way that it can be consistently delineated along with other map units to produce a soil survey.

Soil variability and the precision of soil surveys are defined by the percentage of INCLUSIONS within

a delineation that differs from the named component(s). Inclusions can be similar or dissimilar. SIMILAR inclusions typically differ by some soil property that does not appreciably affect soil use and management such as soil color variations or minor differences in the depth to a diagnostic horizon. DISSIMILAR inclusions have different use and management interpretations. Dissimilar inclusions are often recognized during the initial process of field mapping but cannot be practically depicted on a map at the planned publication scale. An example of a dissimilar inclusion might be a hydric soil lying in a small ponded depression in a flatwoods

85

landscape matrix of upland soils. The percentage of similar and dissimilar inclusions is documented in the text of modern soil surveys. In general, the percentage of inclusions in a soil survey increases as the scale of the mapping becomes smaller.

There are four types of map units defined by NRCS for use in NCSS soil survey products. The

CONSOCIATION is a map unit comprised of a single phased taxon as in the map unit “Myakka fine sand”. The ASSOCIATION and the COMPLEX are multi-taxa map units comprised of two or more dissimilar taxons that are each correlated to specific parts of a landscape or are in a regular repeating pattern. In the association, each of the components could be identified separately and depicted on a map at a scale of approximately 1:24,000. In the complex, each component of the map unit cannot be separated at a scale of approximately 1:24,000. For example, in the Leon-Pickney-Mandarin Association, Leon soils are on the Flatwoods landscape matrix, Pickney soils are in depressions, and Mandarin soils are on slight knolls. If the same soils were present on the landscape but could not be easily separated in mapping, the map unit might be called Leon-Pickney-Mandarin Complex, 0 to 2 percent slopes. The fourth type of map unit is the undifferentiated group. In the multi-taxa UNDIFFERENTIATED GROUP, two or more soils are present on the landscape but they are not correlated with specific segments of the landscape nor are they in a regular repeating pattern. Each of the components is present in most delineations of the map unit; however, the proportions of each component are not predictable. The components of an undifferentiated group are mapped together because use and management interpretations are similar. Although not recognized as a type of map unit, MISCELLANEOUS AREAS differ enough from typical map units to be described here. Miscellaneous areas are used in place of a taxon to designate non-soil areas, and they may be part of a consociation, association, complex or undifferentiated group. Examples of miscellaneous areas include water, rock outcrop, urban land and pits.

The intensity of a NCSS soil survey ranges from generalized maps of the world to detailed maps of the

soil on an individual homeowner’s lot. The levels of intensity are called ORDERS OF SOIL SURVEY. The traditional published NCSS soil survey product is order 2. High intensity soil surveys (order 1) are often conducted with the intention of producing specific interpretations. County level General Soils Maps are typically high order 3 or low order 4, whereas state level General Soils Maps are order 5. The five orders are presented in Table 1 on the next page:

Soil survey attributes appear in the NCSS published soil survey as both text and tabular data. The

MAP UNIT DESCRIPTION includes a description of the setting, the nature of the delineation and inclusions, a non-technical description of the soil profile, and general interpretive statements about the components of the map unit. The TAXONOMIC UNIT DESCRIPTION includes a horizonated soil profile description, range of characteristics for the series in the survey area, classification of the soil, associated soils and how they differ from the named taxon. Other data in text form includes information on use and management of the soils and an explanation of tabular attributes. Data that appears in soil survey tables includes a wide range of physical and chemical properties, specific interpretations for a variety of land uses, and both silivicultural and agronomic yield data. Conducting the Soil Survey

The traditional order 2 (county level) soil survey published by NRCS has been conducted using similar procedures for over 60 years. Upon commencement of a survey, the soil scientist reviews existing data to develop a strategy for conducting the field work. Ideally, a rough draft of a general soils map is prepared using available geologic survey data and limited field investigations. For each distinct general soils map landscape, transects are conducted to determine the relationship of soil morphology to landform or segments of the landscape. The general soils map is continuously refined as the field mapping progresses.

Conceptual models are developed called CATENAS, or sequences. There are many types of sequences including TOPOSEQUENCES, HYDROSEQUENCES, and GEOSEQUENCES. The TOPOSEQUENCE is most like the traditional concept of the catena, correlating differences in soil morphology to specific segments of a hillslope. In Florida, the toposequence and hydrosequence are intimately associated. These conceptual sequences are based on the relationship of the water table to the landscape segment. In one simple model, soils are better drained on higher landscapes, and more poorly drained on lower landscapes. Differences in morphology include higher chroma colors in better drained upslope soils, and lower chroma colors in the downslope, more poorly drained soils. In addition, the downslope soil profiles might exhibit thicker darker A horizons, while the upslope soil profiles exhibit thinner, lighter colored A horizons. Using this model, the soil scientist can use landscape position to delineate the appropriate map unit.

Armed with conceptual models, the soil scientist next reviews other data sources, most importantly the 7.5 minute US Geological Survey (USGS) quadrangles and aerial photography. A base map is chosen, usually an aerial photograph, upon which delineations can be made. Typically the soil scientist correlates soil morphology to qualities of the aerial photograph such as photo texture and tone, or color patterns if color infrared (CIR) or true color imagery is used. Before conducting any field work, some tentative lines are drawn on the base map.

Field work consists primarily of testing and refining the conceptual model and obtaining documentation. Using a bucket auger, probe, spade, or other sampling device along with examination of road or excavated cuts, the soil scientist describes soil profiles and records the location using both a global positioning unit (GPS) and visually estimated position on the field map. Additional documentation is recorded during sampling including vegetative composition and landscape characteristics. A final map is prepared in the office.

Before the manuscript and interpretive tables are prepared, additional information about each map unit must be obtained. Transects to determine the variability of map units are conducted within a minimum number

87

of delineations. The number of transects increases as the total acreage mapped for each map unit increases. In a typical transect, 10 points are examined at evenly spaced intervals and a soil profile is obtained at each point. Where feasible, ground penetrating radar (GPR) or other geophysical methods can also be used. Analysis of the transect data results in variability statements that quantify map unit precision by describing the percentage and nature of similar and dissimilar inclusions in each of the map units.

Interpretive data can be obtained from direct measurements by the soil scientist or through acquisition

of existing data. Typical data acquisition might include yields for specific agricultural crops or silivcultural growth indices. Some data is obtained about map units containing the same soil series in other survey areas. Additional interpretive data is calculated or extrapolated by analyzing expected behavior of horizons and profiles with specific physical properties.

High intensity soil surveys (order 1) are often conducted so that specific interpretations can be

developed. Many states require order 1 surveys for on-site sewage treatment and disposal system (OSTDS) permitting. Order 1 surveys can also be used to develop a wide range of other interpretations including those for precision agriculture and seasonal high saturation depths. Limitations of the Soil Survey

Although the NRCS soil survey data is among the most useful in the public domain, the user must understand the limitations of the data. Perhaps the most common error committed by users is the failure to understand soil variability and the application of soil survey data without proper in situ investigation. The error becomes even more problematic when soil maps are enlarged to scales smaller than the publication scale. Order 2 soil surveys cannot be used in most cases for specific site interpretations (Obreza and Hurt, 2006). Order 2 surveys and higher are most suitable for estimations and planning purposes.

Order 2 soil surveys have notable limitations and uses for jurisdictional wetland determination. Even as a tool for the estimation of jurisdictional wetlands, order 2 surveys often have only limited utility. The vast majority of soil surveys were conducted prior to the conceptualization of hydric soils, and therefore hydric status was not considered in the map unit design. The most current data regarding the hydric status of soil survey map units was prepared after most surveys were completed. The data appears in the Hydric Soil List chapter of the Hydric Soils of Florida Handbook, 4th edition. The list compensates for map unit design deficiencies by defining the hydric status of the named component and the dominant inclusions.

The best use of soil survey data with respect to jurisdictional wetland issues is the comparative value of

overlaying wetland estimation/delineations and soil survey data. Possible conflicts between the two data sets should be investigated to determine if the wetland assessment is accurate. Most importantly, it must be recognized that a final wetland determination that relies upon hydric soil identification must be conducted in the field. The Digital Soil Survey

Pilot digital conversions of soil survey maps were conducted by the Soil Conservation Service (SCS) at their Greenbelt Maryland cartographic facility in the early 1970’s; however, it was not until the development of PC based Geographic Information Systems (GIS) applications in the late 1980’s that the demand for digital data prompted large scale efforts for digital conversion of soil survey data. As of early 2007, the majority of existing county level NCSS soil survey data has been digitized and certified by the NRCS program called SSURGO. In late 2003, the NRCS introduced an internet site dedicated to free distribution of SSURGO data

88

for download called the Soil Data Mart. In addition, a web based application for viewing SSURGO data called Web Soil Survey was also introduced. Despite the analytical power of GIS and the distribution capabilities of the internet, the traditional published NCSS soil survey remains a popular tool for many users.

PROBLEM SOILS: MAN-ALTERED AND NATURAL

James R. Cooper, Frank C. Watts, Dar-Guam Cheng, and Zhongyan Lin

Hydric soil determinations use specific soil morphologies as indicators (signatures) of the presence of a shallow seasonal saturation for extended periods. Generally hydric soil indicators are within 6 inches of the soil surface for sandy soils and within 12 inches of the soil surface for loamy and clayey soils (Hurt and Vasilas, 2006). Since these indicators are at such a shallow depth, they are very vulnerable to any physical disturbance of the soil surface (A and O horizons) and sometimes to the subsurface (E and B horizon) layers. Although it is generally agreed that relief (the landform position in the landscape) has the greatest influence of the five soil forming factors in developing hydric soil morphology, organisms can greatly affect the soil surface layers through physical disturbances. Rooting animals such as wild hogs and armadillos, burrowing animals such as crayfish, pocket gophers, and gopher tortoises, grazing animals such as deer and cattle, and tree throws are but a few examples of natural small-scale disturbances that can greatly affect the hydric signatures of a soil. Since these disturbances are usually in relatively small areas it is easy and accurate to move just a few feet away and look at adjacent soils for hydric soil indicators. The reliability of a hydric soil determination increases as soil disturbance decreases. It is strongly recommended that a local, qualified soil scientist make the hydric soil determination in disturbed and altered soils. Relative to the time required for soil formation man can rapidly and over large areas drastically alter the soil surface and the morphological features through farming, forestry, and developmental activities. This chapter will address those soils that have had their surface morphology altered by man induced activities. This chapter will not address those soil changes caused by drainage. This chapter will also briefly address the natural problem soils in Florida (alluvial, seepage areas, marl, and flats of south Florida {formally known as sloughs}) that due to some special set of soil forming conditions lack or have hydric soil indicators that require additional understanding for interpretation.

MAN-ALTERED SOILS Supplemental Site Information: With any soil investigation a site visit is necessary to collect site specific information that cannot be obtained from aerial maps, photographs, surveys or personal communications. However in many instances human impacts have destroyed or totally removed the vegetation while mixing or totally removing the surface layers of soil. Comparison sites, aerial maps and photographs, and personal communications may be necessary as supplemental information for a hydric soil determination for any site where the soil has been mixed, buried, or scraped. Comparison Sites:

90

Comparison sites are used to make determinations on disturbed sites where evidence required for making a determination including soils, vegetation, or hydrology has been altered or destroyed. A comparison site is a less disturbed site (more natural) than the site in question, on the same landform and one where a hydric soil determination is possible. Examples of comparison sites include adjacent fields, woods, fencerows, or pastures. The hydric soil determination on the comparison site is applied to the disturbed site. Comparison sites should be located as close as possible to the disturbed site. The comparison site must have similar soils, landscape position, and general features as the site in question. This procedure should not be used where the correlation between sites cannot be adequately supported (National Food Security Act Manual, 1994 and Gilbert et al., 1995). Aerial Maps and Photographs: Landscape patterns from man-made features and plant signatures on aerial photographs can provide important information about vegetation, soils, land use, and drainage. A review of all available maps such as soil survey, topographic, National Wetland Inventory (NWI) or aerial photographs (black and white, infrared, etc.) can provide valuable information. The older aerial photographs are often the best since they often show the land before the native plant communities and drainage have been altered. Soil surveys produced by the USDA-National Resources Conservation Service delineate the land into soil map units. These maps along with their text description of the soils provide preliminary, off-site information that can supplement the site visit. A comprehensive list (by county) of soil map units with hydric soils can be found in Appendix II of this handbook. Old soil surveys often provide mapping prior to site disturbances providing important information on native vegetation from the aerial photograph interpretation. Aerial photographs flown during preceding decades can be obtained from the United States Geological Survey (1-800-USA-MAPS). The University of Florida, Archives Map Library and the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) also have aerials that may help in determining when the soil disturbance occurred, age of the fill material, past land uses, native plant cover, or the adjacent land uses that may in the past or that are still influencing the site. Personal Communication: Important information may be obtained by consulting with present and past property owners, adjacent property owners, and any other people in the area who may be familiar with the history of the site concerning farming, forestry operations, flooding, fires, filling, land smoothing or any other activities or events that may have affected the site. Hydric Soil Determinations in Man-Altered Soils: Disturbances to the upper layers of soil can be placed into three major categories: 1) Mixing, 2) Additions (fill), and 3) Removal (scraping, trenching, dredging, etc.). Below is a brief discussion and approach to handling such situations for hydric soil determinations. Interpretation of any man-altered soil should include the supplemental information discussed previously. Mixing: The soil surface may be mixed by agricultural and sivicultural operations with harrows, disks, plows and other heavy equipment. The degree of the disturbance depends on the land use management practices. In cultivated fields the seasonal tillage operations may completely destroy all hydric soil indicators and prevent feature expression. In areas such as fire breaks around fields and pastures that are tilled less often than cultivated fields, a hydric soil determination may still be possible by examining clods for residual features. Disturbed

91

areas around pastures and cultivated fields are conducive to invasive weed species. These plants are often not indicative of soil drainage. Caution should also be used in interpreting soils in timber stands where bedding, rutting, or stump removal has occurred. Usually the least disturbed soil in a bedded timber stand is the one to two foot wide flat area outside of the furrows (Figure 1.).

Figure 1. Seedling bed formed with soil mounded up from adjacent side furrows.

Even the relatively undisturbed areas outside of the furrows which are designated as “UN" on the photograph could have significant disturbance as they may have been the location of the bed or furrow from previous stand rotations. The 20 to 30 years between rotations may be long enough for certain types of hydric indicators to reform. More research is needed with respect to the rate at which hydric soil indicators form after a disturbance. Understanding what was done to a site and how it was done can help in reconstructing the natural soil morphology. Rutting of the soil may be especially confusing as compression and displacement of the soil by heavy equipment may exaggerate thicknesses of certain hydric indicators while causing a deterioration of others on adjacent mounds and ridges. Unlike the bed and furrow pattern in timber stands, there is often no pattern or sequence of the disturbance to use in interpreting the amount of soil disturbance. Fill: Since so much of Florida is flat with poorly drained soils, it is often necessary to raise the land elevation with fill for domestic and commercial development. Soils may also be buried with fill from adjacent berm construction for roads. In these situations a hole must be dug through the fill material to reach the original soil surface. Then the original soil surface can be interpreted using the same procedures for a soil in an undisturbed situation. Buried vegetation and organic materials may help approximate the old soil surface. Fill material may have a different color, texture, organic content, or structure than the native topsoil. The fill material usually has mixed soil materials and lacks the gradations of a soil profile. There is often an abrupt

92

change from light-colored fill sand to the buried dark native topsoil. However some fill material may come from nearby areas, even on-site, and may have similar characteristics to the native soil. It is important to know where the fill came from and when the fill was put in place. Often the original soil surface layers are disturbed due to land clearing prior to the filling. Mixing may destroy some types of hydric soil indicators that were present in the original surface layers thereby making a hydric soil determination difficult to impossible. See the chapter Delineating Hydric Soils in Florida for additional information. Scraping: In areas that have been scraped and leveled the entire zone of hydric soil indicators (6 inches for sandy soils and 10 to 12 inches for loamy and clayey soils) may have been removed. The exposed soil surface after scraping becomes the new soil surface from which the depths of hydric soil indicators are measured. With the lowering of the land surface the new soil surface is closer to the seasonal saturation table. A soil that was once non hydric may become hydric after scrapping as the seasonal saturation can reach and stay at the new soil surface for longer periods. As discussed before, knowledge of the time it takes specific hydric soil indicators to form is important. Where the soil has been scraped and regraded, the procedures discussed for both mixing and filling should be followed. The new, exposed soil surface may or may not express hydric soil indicators. The new surface may not have had hydric soil indicators before the scrapping and may not have had sufficient time to develop them. Although the organic based, hydric soil indicators are usually lost with scraping, other indicators such as sandy redox and matrix stripping may be present at the lower depths. The lower levels of some soils may show no hydric soil indicators after scrapping if they are deficient in organic materials and iron. These soils often have difficulty expressing hydric soil indicators with time. Plant growth is often affected when the topsoil is removed since the subsoil is commonly less productive. Plant growth and biomass production will affect the hydric soil indicators that are related to organic matter and its behavior. For sandy soils, the thick dark surface, muck accumulation, mucky texture, and organic accretions will be greatly affected by plant growth and decay.

NATURAL PROBLEM SOILS In certain cases the uniqueness of the interaction of the five soil forming factors produces a soil morphology which does not follow the standard model for a hydric soil. Specific regional indicators such as “Stripped Matrix” which was previously called a polychromatic matrix, “Stratified Layers”, and “Marl” were included as hydric soil indicators to help identify these soils. The problem soils fit into four major categories: alluvial soils, soils of seepage areas, marl soils and soils on the flats of south Florida. Extra care is needed in interpreting the hydric status of these soils. The need for replicated pits and an understanding of the soil relationships across the landscape cannot be stressed too much when evaluating these soils. Alluvial Soils: These soils are found throughout Florida in areas that experience flooding from rivers and streams. Many areas that flood and have alluvial soils are not hydric since the frequency and duration of flooding are not long enough to produce anaerobic conditions in the surface layers. There are a few alluvial soils in Florida that may have a wetland hydrology with flooding for long to very long periods of time but may lack the hydric soil indicators due to the continual disturbance of the soil surface. Alluvial soils can resemble soils that have been disturbed by man. However, the agent of disturbance is natural, flowing water. Surface soil, plant litter, and organic matter of different sizes and states of decay are often removed and deposited as water flows over the soil. Removal and deposition of soil and sediment on a flood plain increases as energy and turbulence of

water flow increases. Surface layer(s) where the hydric soil indicators are found may be poorly developed or missing in these soils. The size of the stream and the frequency of flooding should be considered when evaluating these soils. Stratified layers and iron/manganese masses are the most common hydric soil indicators in alluvial soils. Seepage Areas: Formation of seepage areas occurs where seasonal saturation comes close to and/or emerges through the ground surface as the water flows downhill along a sideslope or footslope. These soils occur where a less permeable subsoil or geologic strata intersect a slope causing ground water to move laterally out onto the land surface or where ground water is continuous to the deep aquifer and surfaces on a slope. These areas are generally smaller than most soil map unit delineations and are on slopes steep enough that surface water, although near or at the surface, is not visible. The soils in such areas are usually easy to identify by the hydric soil indicators; however as the volume of the surface flow increases, small channels may briefly form causing erosion and localized loss of some hydric soil indicators. Care must be taken in identifying the boundaries of the seepage areas as transitional (facultative and facultative wet) vegetation often extends upslope and laterally beyond the hydric soils. Not all seepage areas have hydric soils; some seepage areas are ephemeral and are saturated for only a few days following major rainfall events. Marl Soils: See the chapters Delineating Hydric Soils in Florida and Formation of Hydric Soils and Redoximorphic Features for information on marl soils. Flats of south Florida: In south Florida, soils on flats (formerly known as sloughs) are frequently saturated or inundated (ponded) for long periods but often lack the organic matter content expected for such wet conditions. Several factors account for the lack of organic matter accumulation. South Florida has a six month wet season (June to November) followed by a relatively dryer winter season (December to May). During the dryer winter season, these areas are frequently subject to wild fires that can remove any accumulation of surface litter. Due to the extremes of wetness and dryness, along with flooding and burning, plant cover on the flats is often sparse, producing little organic litter and shading for the soil surface. During the wet season inundation, even the slow movement of water across the soil surface can redistribute and remove fine organic materials. The lack of organic matter accumulation on the flats of south Florida may appear to make hydric soil determinations difficult; however, “Stratified Layers”, “Stripped Matrix”, and “Sandy Redox” are common hydric soil indicators in these areas.

FLORIDA’S HYDRIC SOIL LIST BY COUNTY Darrell E. Leach and Sandra Leach

Map units displayed are only those with hydric soil components and only the hydric components are listed. Hydric component that are generally less than 15 percent are considered hydric soil inclusions and require investigation to determine if they are present. The lists developed here are generated from the NASIS database and match the hydric soils on the “Soil Data Mart” on January 22, 2007. The data on the “Soil Data Mart” is considered official and will supersede any printed copy of a soil survey. The “Web Soil Survey” is linked to the “Soil Data Mart” and is the suggested place to find a soil map to use with this list. Soil surveys are subject to revision and update and so the component names and percentage may change. Therefore, the previous third edition list should not be used. Soil surveys that are in update mode, such as Washington County, will make this list out of date is a few years for those counties. This hydric soils list is based on criteria and may be used as a guide to determine if a site evaluation is needed. A soil scientist will need to examine a site by looking for hydric soil indicators to determine if it is really a hydric soil. Soils may sometimes meet criteria 2 and still not have hydric soil indicators present to be a hydric soil. Hydric Soil Criteria:

The Criteria for Hydric Soils (Federal Register, 2002) are: 1. All Histels except Folistels and all Histosols except Folists, or 2. Soils in Aquic suborders, great groups, or subgroups, Histoturbels great group, Albolls suborder, Pachic subgroups, or Cumulic subgroups that are: a. somewhat poorly drained with a water table equal to 0.0 foot (ft.) from the surface during the growing season, or

b. poorly drained or very poorly drained and have either: (1) water table equal to 0.0 ft. during the growing season if

textures are coarse sand, sand, or fine sand in all layers within 20 inches (in.), or for other soils

(2) water table at less than or equal to 0.5 ft. from the surface during the growing seasonif permeability is equal to or greater than 6.0 in./hour (h.) in all layers within 20 in., or

(3) water table at less than or equal to 1.0 ft. from the surface during the growing season, if permeability is less than 6 in./h. in any layer within 20 in., or

3. Soils that are frequently ponded for long or very long duration during the growing season, or 4. Soils that are frequently flooded for long or very long duration during the

growing season.

GLOSSARY: Marked with an asterisk (*), these terms, as defined in this glossary, have definitions that may be slightly different from the definitions in the materials referenced below. The definitions are to assist users of this handbook and are not intended to add to or replace definitions in the referenced materials. A Horizon – An A horizon is a mineral soil horizon that formed at the surface or below an O horizon where organic material is accumulating. See Soil Taxonomy (1999) for complete definition. Aerobic – A in which molecular oxygen is part of the soil environment. Anaerobic - A condition in which molecular oxygen is virtually absent from the soil. Anaerobiosis - Microbiological activity under anaerobic conditions. Aquic Conditions - Conditions in the soil represented by: depth of saturation, occurrence of reduction, and redoximorphic features. See Soil Taxonomy (1999) for complete definition. *Artificial Drainage - The use of human efforts and devices to remove free water from the soil surface or from the soil profile. The hydrology may also be modified by the use of levees and dams to prevent water from entering a site. Calcic Horizon – A calcic horizon is an illuvial horizon in which carbonates have accumulated to a significant extent. See Soil Taxonomy (1999) for complete definition. Calcium Carbonate – Calcium carbonate has the chemical formula of CaCO3. Calcium carbonate effervesces when treated with cold hydrochloric acid. CaCO3 Equivalent - Is the acid neutralizing capacity of a soil expressed as a weight percentage of CaCO3 (molecular weight of CaCO3 equals 100). Carbon Feature – A feature associated with wetness resulting from the alteration, depletion, or accumulation of organic carbon. Closed Depressions - A low-lying area surrounded by higher ground with no natural outlet for surface drainage. COE - US Army Corps of Engineers. Common - When referring to redox concentrations and/or depletions, common represents 2 to 20 percent of the observed surface. Concave Landscapes - A landscape whose surface curves downward. *Covered, Coated, Masked - These are terms used to describe all of the redoximorphic processes by which the color of soil particles are hidden by organic material, silicate clay, iron, aluminum, or some combination of these. *Depleted Matrix – For loamy and clayey soil material, a depleted matrix refers to the volume of a soil horizon or subhorizon from which iron has been removed or transformed by processes of reduction and translocation to create colors of low chroma and high value. A, E and calcic horizons may have low chromas and high values and may therefore be mistaken for a depleted matrix; however, they are excluded from the concept of depleted matrix unless common or many, distinct or prominent redox concentrations as soft masses or pore linings are present. In some places the depleted matrix may change color upon exposure to air (Reduced Matrix), this phenomena is included in the concept of depleted matrix. The following combinations of value and chroma identify a depleted matrix: 1. Matrix value 5 or more and chroma 1 or less with or without redox concentrations as soft masses and/or pore linings; or 2. Matrix value 6 or more and chroma 2 or less with or without redox concentrations as

217

soft masses and/or pore linings; or 3. Matrix value 4 or 5 and chroma 2 and has 2 percent or more distinct or prominent redox concentrations as soft masses and/or pore linings; or 4. Matrix value 4 and chroma 1 and has 2 percent or more distinct or prominent redox concentrations as soft masses and/or pore linings. Diffuse Boundary - Used to describe redoximorphic features that grade gradually from one color to another (Figure 43). The color grade is commonly more than 2 mm wide. Clear is used to describe boundary color gradations intermediate between sharp and diffuse. Distinct1 - Readily seen but contrast only moderately with the color to which compared. The contrast is distinct if: 1.) delta hue = 0, then a.) delta value <2 and delta chroma >1 to <4, or b.) delta value >2 to <4 and delta chroma <4. 2.) delta hue = 1, then a.) delta value <1 and delta chroma >1 to <3, or b.) delta value >1 to<3, delta chroma <3. 3. delta hue = 2, then a.) delta value= 0 and delta chroma >0 to <2, or b.)delta value >0 to <2 and delta chroma <2. 1Regardless of the magnitude of hue difference, where both colors have value <3 and chroma <2, the contrast is faint. E Horizon - A mineral horizon in which the main dominant process is loss of silicate clay, iron, and/or aluminum, leaving a concentration of sand and silt particles. See Soil Taxonomy (1999) for complete definition. EPA - US Environmental Protection Agency. Epipedon - A horizon that has developed at the soil surface. See Soil Taxonomy (1999) for complete definition. Faint - Evident only on close examination. The contrast is faint if: 1.) delta hue = 0, then delta value <2 and delta chroma <1 or 2.) delta hue = 1, then delta value <1 and delta chroma <1, or 3.) delta hue = 2, then delta value =0 and delta chroma =0, or any delta hue if both colors have value <3 and chroma <2. Fe/Mn Concretions - Firm to extremely firm irregularly shaped bodies with sharp to diffuse boundaries. When broken in half concretions have concentric layers. See Vepraskas (1994) for complete discussion. Fe/Mn Nodules - Firm to extremely firm irregularly shaped bodies with sharp to diffuse boundaries. When broken in half nodules do not have visibly organized internal structure. See Vepraskas (1994) for complete discussion. Few - When referring to redox concentrations and/or depletions few represents less than 2 percent of the observed surface. Fibric - See peat. Flatwoods – A landform characteristically broad areas with nearly level to gently sloping flat and slightly convex relief and predominantly poorly drained nonhydric soils. Convex relief exists where flatwoods abut flats and depressions. Flats – A landform characteristically flat and nearly level with poorly defined outlets and

218

predominantly poorly drained hydric soils. Flats have concave relief where they abut flatwoods and other upland landforms and concave relief where they abut depressions. Fragmental Soil Material - Soil material that consists of 90% or more rock fragments. Less than 10% of the soil consists of particles 2 mm or smaller. Frequently Flooded or Ponded - A frequency class in which flooding or ponding is likely to occur often under usual weather conditions (more than 50 percent chance in any year, or more than 50 times in 100 years). FWS - US Department of Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service. g* - A horizon suffix indicating the horizon is grey due to wetness but not necessarily gleyed. All gleyed matrices (see definition below) should have the suffix “g”; however, all horizons with the “g” suffix are not gleyed. For example, a horizon with the color 10YR 6/2 that is at least seasonally wet, with or without other redoximorphic features, should have the “g” suffix. Glauconitic - A mineral aggregate that contains micaceous mineral resulting in a characteristic green color, e.g. glauconitic shale or clay. *Gleyed Matrix - Soils with a gleyed matrix have the following combinations of hue, value, and chroma and the soils are not glauconitic: 1. 10Y, 5GY, 10GY, 10G, 5BG, 10BG, 5B, 10B, or 5PB with value 4 or more and chroma is 1; or 2. 5G with value 4 or more and chroma is 1 or 2; or 3. N with value 4 or more; or In some places the gleyed matrix may change color upon exposure to air (Reduced Matrix). This phenomenon is included in the concept of gleyed matrix. Growing Season – Two definitions: 1.The portion of the year when soil temperatures at 50 cm below the soil surface are higher than biologic zero (5oC) (Soil Survey Staff, 1999). 2. The time of the year soil microbes are active (in Florida this is throughout the year). *Hemic - See Mucky peat. Histic Epipedon - A thick (20-60 cm {8-24 in.}) organic soil horizon that is saturated with water at some period of the year unless artificially drained and that is at or near the surface of a mineral soil. Histels - Organic soils that overly permafrost and show evidence of cryoturbation. See Soil Taxonomy (1999) for complete definition. Histosols - Organic soils that have organic soil materials in more than half of the upper 80 cm (32 in.), or that are of any thickness if they overly rock or fragmental materials that have interstices filled with organic soil materials. See Soil Taxonomy (1999) for complete definition. Horizon - A layer, approximately parallel to the surface of the soil, distinguishable from adjacent layers by a distinctive set of properties produced by soil forming processes. See Soil Taxonomy (1999) for complete definition. Hydric Soil Criteria (2002): 1. All Histels except Folistels and Histosols except Folists, or 2. Soils in Aquic suborders, great groups, or subgroups, Albolls suborder, Aquisalids, Historthels, and Histoturbels great groups, and Cumulic or Pachic subgroups that are: a. somewhat poorly drained with a water table equal to 0.0 foot (ft.) from the surface during the growing season, or

219

b. poorly drained or very poorly drained and has either: (1) water table equal to 0.0 ft. during the growing season if textures are coarse sand, sand, or fine sand in all layers within 20 inches (in.), or for other soils, or (2) water table at less than or equal to 0.5 ft. from the surface during the growing season if permeability is equal to or greater than 6.0 in/hour (h.) in all layers within 20 in., or (3) water table at less than or equal to 1.0 ft. from the surface during the growing season, if permeability is less than 6.0 in./h. in any layer within 20 in., or 3. Soils that are frequently ponded for long or very long duration during the growing season, or 4. Soils that are frequently flooded for long or very long duration during the growing season. Hydric Soil Definition (1994) - A soil that formed under conditions of saturation, flooding, or ponding long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part.

Many - When referring to redox concentrations and/or depletions many represents more than 20 percent of the observed surface. *Marl - An unconsolidated deposit consisting chiefly of calcium carbonate, formed in saline or fresh water flooded conditions and subaqueous conditions by the interactions of algae and other microbes with carbonate enriched parent materials. Matrix - The dominant soil volume of a horizon or layer, which is continuous in appearance and envelops microsites. Where three colors exist, such as when a matrix, depletions, and concentrations are present, the matrix may represent less than 50 percent of the total soil volume. MLRA - Major Land Resource Areas. MLRAs are geographically associated divisions of Land Resource Regions. MLRAs are defined in USDA Ag. Handbook 296. Mollic Epipedon - A mineral surface horizon that is relatively thick, dark colored, humus rich, and has high base saturation. See Soil Taxonomy (1999) for complete definition. *Morphological Feature – A visible pedogenic structure within the matrix of a soil horizon. The dominant types of features in hydric soils are carbon features and redoximorphic features. *Muck - A sapric organic soil material in which virtually all of the organic material is decomposed not allowing for identification of plant forms. Bulk density is normally 0.2 or more. Muck has <1/6 fibers after rubbing, and sodium pyrophosphate solution extract color has lower value and chroma than 5/1, 6/2, and 7/3. *Mucky Modified Mineral Soil Material - A USDA soil texture modifier, e.g. mucky sand. Mucky modified mineral soil material that has 0 percent clay has between 5 and 12 percent organic carbon. Mucky modified mineral soil material that has 60 percent clay

Plinthite - The sesquioxide-rich, humus-poor, highly weathered mixture of clay with quartz and other diluents. See Soil Taxonomy (1999) for a complete discussion of plinthite. Ponding - Standing water in a closed depression that is removed only by percolation, evaporation, or transpiration. Duration is greater than seven days. Pore Linings – Pore linings are zones of accumulation that may be either coatings on a ped or pore surface or impregnations of the matrix adjacent to the pore or ped. See Vepraskas (1994) for complete discussion. Prominent - Contrasts strongly with the color to which they are compared. Color contrasts more contrasting than faint and distinct are prominent. Redox Concentrations - Bodies of apparent accumulation of Fe/Mn oxides. Redox concentrations include soft masses, pore linings, nodules, and concretions. For the purposes of the Indicators nodules and concretions are excluded from the concept of redox concentrations unless otherwise specified by specific Indicators. See Vepraskas (1994) for complete discussion. Redox Depletions - Bodies of low chroma (2 or less) having value 4 or more where Fe-Mn oxides have been stripped or where both Fe-Mn oxides and clay have been stripped. Redox deletions contrast distinctly or prominently with the matrix. See Vepraskas (1994) for complete discussion. Redoximorphic Features - Features formed by the processes of reduction, translocation, and/or oxidation of Fe and Mn oxides; formerly called mottles and low chroma colors. See Vepraskas (1994) for complete discussion Relict Features - Soil morphological features that do not reflect recent hydrologic conditions of saturation and anaerobiosis. See Vepraskas (1994) for complete discussion. Reduced Matrix - Soil matrices that have low chroma and high value, but whose color changes in hue or chroma when exposed to air. See Vepraskas (1994) for complete discussion. *Reduction - For the purpose of the Indicators, when the redox potential (Eh) is below the ferric/ferrous iron threshold as adjusted for pH. In hydric soils, this is the point when the transformation of ferric iron (Fe+++) to ferrous iron (Fe++) occurs. *Sapric - See muck. Saturation - Saturation is characterized by zero or positive pressure in the soil-water and is determined by observing free water in an unlined auger hole. Most of the soil pores are filled with water. Three types of saturation are recognized:

a. Endosaturation. - The soil is saturated with water in all layers from the upper boundary of saturation to a depth of 200 cm or more from the mineral soil surface (most all soils in Florida are endosaturated). b. Episaturation. - The soil is saturated with water in one or more layers within 200 cm of the mineral soil surface and also has one or more unsaturated layers, with an upper boundary above 200 cm depth, below the saturated layer. The zone of saturation is perched on top of a relatively impermeable layer (rare in Florida). c. Anthric saturation.- This variant of episaturation is associated with controlled flooding (for such crops as wetland rice and cranberries), which causes reduction processes in the saturated, puddled surface soil and oxidation of reduced and mobilized iron and manganese in the unsaturated subsoil (rare in Florida).

222

Saturation, Seasonal High - The highest expected annual elevation of saturation in a soil; usually confirmed by observation of water in an unlined bore hole or the correlation of morphological features with probable saturation. Sharp Boundary - Used to describe redoximorphic features that grade sharply from one color to another. The color grade is commonly less than 0.1 mm wide. Soft Masses - Redox concentrations, that are not hard, frequently within the matrix, whose shape is variable. Soil - A natural body comprised of solids (minerals and organic matter), liquid, and gases that occur on the land surface, occupy space, and is characterized by one or both of the following: horizons, or layers, that are distinguishable from the initial material as a result of additions, losses, transfers, and transformations of energy and matter or the ability to support rooted plants in the natural environment. Soil Horizons - Distinct layers of soil, more or less parallel with the soil surface, having similar properties such as color, texture, and permeability. The soil profile is subdivided into the following major horizons: O-horizon, dominated by organic materials; A-horizon, characterized by an accumulation of organic material; E-horizon characterized by loss of clay, iron, organic matter, or aluminum; B-horizon, characterized by relative accumulation of clay, iron, organic matter, or aluminum; and the C-horizon, the undisturbed and unaltered parent material. Soil Phase - A subdivision of a soil series having features (e.g. slope, surface texture, and stoniness) that affect the use and management of the soil, but which do not vary sufficiently to differentiate it as a separate series. Soil Profile - A vertical section of a soil through all its horizons and extending into the parent material. Soil Series - A group of soils having horizons similar in differentiating characteristics and arrangement in the soil profile, except for texture of the surface horizon. Soil Structure - The combination or arrangement of primary soil into secondary particles, units or peds. Soil Surface - The soil surface is the top of the mineral soil; or, for soils with an O horizon, the soil surface is the top of the part of the O horizon that is at least slightly decomposed. The top of any surface horizon identified as an 0 horizon, whether Oi, Oe, or Oa, is considered the soil surface. Note: All measurements for hydric soil determinations originate at the upper boundary of the muck (Oa) or mineral soil surface. Soil Texture - The weight proportion of the soil separates for particles less than 2 mm. Spodic Horizon - A mineral soil horizon that is characterized by the illuvial accumulation of amorphous materials composed of aluminum and organic carbon with or without iron. The spodic horizon has certain minimum thickness, and a minimum quantity of oxalate extractable carbon plus aluminum and/or specific color requirements. Subaqueous Soil – Soil that is mostly covered by water in marine, estuarine, and fresh water environments and supports rooted plants, could support rooted plants under natural conditions, or exhibits pedogenesis. Transect - As used herein, a line on the ground along which observations are made at some interval. Transition zone - The area in which a change from wetland to uplands occurs. Transition zones (ecotones) may be narrow or broad. Translocation - The transfer of matter from one location to another within the soil.

Transpiration - The process in plants by which vapor is released into the gaseous environment, primarily through stomata. Umbric Epipedon - A thick, dark mineral surface horizon with base saturation of less than 50 percent. See Soil Taxonomy (1999) for complete definition. Wetland - Those areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or ground water at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions. Wetlands generally include swamps, marshes, bogs, and similar areas, and typically exhibit one or more of the following indicators: hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils, and wetland hydrology. Wetlands, Jurisdictional - Areas that have hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils, and wetland hydrology, per the FSA Manual, the Corps of Engineers 1987 Wetlands Delineation Manual, and/or the Florida Wetlands Rule. Wetland Boundary - The point on the ground at which a shift from wetlands to upland or aquatic habitats occurs. Wetland Hydrology - In general terms, permanent or periodic inundation or prolonged soil saturation sufficient to create wetlands.
