Solonetz (Ukrainian: Солонець, Russian: Солоне́ц, IPA: [səlɐˈnʲɛts]) is a Reference Soil Group of the World Reference Base for Soil Resources (WRB). They have, within the upper 100 cm of the soil profile, a so-called "natric horizon" ("natrium" is the Latin term for sodium).

Solonetz, one of the 30 soil groups in the classification system of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). Solonetz soils are defined by an accumulation of sodium salts and readily displaceable sodium ions bound to soil particles in a layer below the …

solonetz (sn) The Reference Soil Group of the Solonetz accommodates soils with a dense, strongly structured, clayey subsurface horizon that has a high proportion of adsorbed sodium and/or magnesium ions.

The meaning of SOLONETZ is any of an intrazonal group of dark hard alkaline soils showing columnar structure and containing sulfates, bicarbonates, and other soluble salts which evolve by leaching and alkalizing from solonchak in imperfectly drained semiarid regions.

Solonetzes occur where a sodium source supplies the clay-rich subsoil with exchangeable Na, causing peptization of clay and organic substances and deterioration of the topsoil.

Jan 1, 2016 · Solonetz are normally associated with flat lands in a climate with hot, dry summers, or with (former) coastal deposits that contain a high proportion of sodium ions. Major concentrations of Solonetz are in flat or gently sloping grasslands with loess/loam or clay in semi‐arid, temperate and subtropical regions.

Land use options of Solonetz soils depend largely on the depth and properties of the surface soil. However, most Solonetzes are Solonetz are problem soils when used for arable agriculture. Areas of Solonetz soils are similar to those of Solonchaks in Europe.

Solonetzic soils are grassland soils found on parent materials with higher clay contents. These soils have B and C horizons that are high in sodium salts and other salts and carbonates. The chemical notation for sodium is Na and the horizons are denoted as Bn. In some cases they are also higher in clay than overlying horizons (forming a Bnt).

Jul 27, 2011 · Soils of the Solonetzic order are defined as having a Solonetzic B horizon designated as a Bn or Bnt horizon. The Solonetzic Order includes four great groups: Solonetz, Solodized Solonetz, Solod, and Vertic Solonetz.
