The types of weathering that take place within a region have a major influence on soil composition and texture. For example, in a warm climate, where chemical weathering dominates, soils tend to be richer in clay. Soil scientists describe soil texture in terms of the relative proportions of sand, silt, and clay, as shown in Figure 5.14.

Climate refers to the temperature and moisture conditions of an area over time. Climate is the typical pattern of the area over the long term, but weather is the actual daily condition. Of interest, climate is one of the five soil forming factors and has a significant influence on the properties of soil. Soils in warmer or wetter climates are more
