  1. A buried soil is defined by the National Resources Conservation Service as a soil that is “covered with a surface mantle of new soil material that either is 50 cm or more thick or is 30–50 cm thick and has a thickness that equals at least half the total thickness of the named diagnostic horizons that are preserved in the buried soil ...

  6. May 8, 2018 · Buried soil is soil that appeared on the surface of the earth and sustained plant life but because of a geologic event has been covered by a layer of sediment. Sediments can result from volcanoes, rivers, dust storms, or blowing sand or silt .

  7. Some soils have an organic horizon (O) on the surface, but this horizon can also be buried. The master horizon, E, is used for subsurface horizons that have a significant loss of minerals (eluviation). Hard bedrock, which is not soil, uses the letter R. Project. Soil Profile Cards (114.94 KB)
