Abstract
Four typical pedons representing physiographic positions across the Gaggar flood plain were studied for their characteristics and genesis. Soils on the dunes are deep, sandy, without horizonation, whereas on the hummocky plain, stability of the landform has allowed leaching of lime and structural development. Soils of the flood plain formed by aeofluvial action showed development of a Cambic horizon, whereas soils of the plain showed Natric horizon.Downloads
