The Analysis of the Physical and Chemical Properties of Selected soil Samples from the Basins of the area between HajlanValley Basin and al-Qasr Valley Basin.

Abstract

The difference in the types of soil in the study area is caused by the difference in the quality of rocks and the effect of the natural factors that contributed to the formation of the soil, as these factors resulted in different chemical and physical properties of the soil, and one of these factors is the climate factor with its various factors, which is the main factor in soil formation. Soil samples were taken and analyzed to identify the chemical and physical properties of the soil of the study area, through which and in consultation with the specialists, the soil of the study area were classified into five types of soils that differ in their chemical properties from the interaction of the soil (acidic and basic), electrical conductivity and the proportion of calcium sulfate, calcium carbonate and sodium. Also, the physical properties of the soil texture and its types and the volume of sediments consisting of sand, clay and silt.
