Abstract

A MOLLISOLS catena formed on CALCAREOUS PARENT MATERIAL in semiarid region of western Iran was studied in order to investigate the effects of the depth of groundwater and landscape position on the organic carbon content (OC) of mollic epipedons, genesis of subsurface horizons and variations of clay minerals. According to landscape position, soils were grouped in three categories. Soils formed on the upper section of the alluvial valley bottom i.e. Typic Calcixerolls with the deepest water table, had lower OC and thinner mollic epipedon comparing to other soils. The soils were not saturated and showed no evidence of redoximorphic features. Presence of secondary carbonate and calcic horizons were mainly related to the dissolution of the carbonate in the upper soil horizons and its downward leaching and precipitation in the lower horizons. Speckled and striated b-fabric of the near surface soil horizons are the evidences of carbonate depletion from surface layers. Soils of the mid-valley section i.e. Vertic Haploxerolls, with water table depth (1-2 m) have periodic saturation. Thickness of the mollic epipedons and OC were lower than the soils of the lower valley bottom. Soils of the lower valley bottom or low lands classified as Fluvaquentic Endoaquolls had thick dark mollic epipedons and the highest OC comparing to other soils. In the well-drained soils, illite was dominant. In contrast, in poorly drained soils of the lower valley bottom, smectite was the dominant clay mineral.
