- Morphology describes and measures a wide rang e of soil properties, and includes as asses sment of soil particles and aggregates that provide e stimates of soil void characteristics and hydraulic properties. There are five major soil morphological features like texture, initial moisture, pedality, macroporosity, and root density.

Soil morphology is the branch of soil science dedicated to the technical description of soil, [1] particularly physical properties including texture, color, structure, and consistence. Morphological evaluations of soil are typically performed in the field on a soil profile containing multiple horizons .
Soil morphology is defined as the branch of soil science that deals with the description, using standard terminology, of in situ spatial organization and physical properties of soil regardless of potential use.
Soil morphology focuses on standardizing descriptions of soil properties and features in the field. Although often qualitative and empirical, these descriptions aid in the interpretation of soil properties measured in the laboratory through chemical, biological and physical methods.

Soil morphology is all that can be seen and felt about a soil. It includes not only “what is there” but also how it is “put together” – its architecture. To many, the main components of soil morphology include horizonation, texture, color, redoximorphic features, porosity, structure, and consistence, i.e., the look and feel of the soil. Type.
Examining the morphological features like texture, structure, color, consistence, etc. of the soil to distinguish any layers or horizons. Describing in detail the texture, structure, color, consistence, and other important features of each horizon. Assigning horizon designations to each layer.

Aug 13, 2021 · This sentence, cited by Fedoroff , highlights the aim of soil micromorphology: looking at a soil from the inside and at various scales, from the optical microscope to synchrotron imaging. Soils constitute multiscalar objects by definition, from their soilscape (at the landscape scale), to their profile and its horizons to the atomic ...
