Soil colour is an important soil property. It is frequently used by soil scientists for the
identification and classification of soil. It is also used as an indicator of field soil physical …

A neural network (NN) approach was used to determine relationships between soil colour
and a range of physical and chemical characteristics, using a dataset derived from the NSIS …

Abstract Wetland delineation in South Africa incorporates soil form and soil wetness
indicators, requiring formal soil classification and description of soil redox morphology. The …

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of combining proximal, and
remote sensing with environmental variables for predicting USDA (United States …

The need to characterise and quantify hydrological processes in order to manage scarce
water resources led to significant progress in the field of hydropedology in South Africa …

Soil hydraulic properties play a primary role in water infiltration and movement, and transport
of nutrients and contaminants through the soil profile. However, the determination of soil …

A relationship between soil organic carbon and soil color is acknowledged—albeit not a
direct one. Since heightened carbon contents can be an indicator of wetlands, a quantifiable …

Soil color patterns are essential to understand hydrologic regime and biogeochemical
processes in wetland ecosystems. Munsell Soil Color Chart (MSCC) has been traditionally …

At the plenary session of the Silver Jubilee Congress of the Soil Science Society of Southern
Africa in Pietermaritzburg, KwaZulu-Natal in 1978, MacVicar (1978) delivered a paper on the …

The South African plinthic catena is characterised by a grading of soils from red through
yellow to grey (bleached) soils down a slope. The colour sequence is ascribed to different …
