Abstract

Investigating of Soil evolution as resultant of different factors during soil forming processes is an essential requirement for land management based on soil studies. According to this opportunity, evolution of four soil profiles were studied by morphological and micromorphological methods to evaluate these methods performance beside their genetically assessing and classification in Goharan-Khoy area. After routine analysis, soil profiles were classified based on 12th version of soil taxonomy. Semi-quantitative methods including Harden, MISODI and MISECA indices were qualified to study the soils evolution. The results revealed the presence of Inceptisols and Alfisols due to various soil forming processes such as weathering, littering and humification, calcification and lessivage in the field study area. Different intensity of soil forming processes leads the studies field area to various degrees of Soil evolution, so based on the obtained results of all three used Soil evolution methods, Alfisols identified as more developed than Inceptisols and evolution of Inceptisols conformed their classification results. Although classification of the studied soils indicated their evolutionary order, but the semi-quantitative assessment of their evolution revealed the exact distance of them, which was absolutely useful in separating the soils with the similar classification. Generally, the same results of the studied semi-quantitative methods showed same closeness efficiencies in evolutionary ranking of soils in areas like Khoy. However, it seems that the slight deficiencies of the MISECA index in ranking the soils with calcite features arising from the limited of calcification evidence in the soil profiles, which has led to its lack of precedence comparing other indices.
