10/13/2016 Official Series Description- MANZAN OLA Series Particle size control section: Clay content: 35 to 50 percent Sand content: 15 to 25 percent, with less than 15 fine or coarser sand Rock fragment content: 0 to 15 percent by volume in a major part of the solum and C horizon above depth of 40 inches and are mainly 1/4 to 3 inches in diameter. A horizon: Hue: 5Y to 7.5YR Value: 4 to 7 dry, 3 to 6 moist Chroma: 1 to 4 Reaction: slightly alkaline to strongly alkaline. Bt and Btk horizons: Hue: 5Y to 7.5YR Value: 5 to 7 dry, 4 to 6 moist Chroma: 1 to 6 Texture: clay loam, silty clay loam, silty clay, or clay Clay content: 35 to 50 percent Calcium carbonate equivalent: 1 to 15 percent Reaction: slightly alkaline to strongly alkaline, and nonsaline or slightly saline. Bk horizon: Hue: 5Y to 7.5YR Value: 6 or 7 dry, 4 or 5 moist Chroma: of 2 to 4 Texture: clay loam, silty clay loam, clay, or loam Reaction: moderately alkaline to very strongly alkaline Calcium carbonate equivalent: 5 to 35 percent. Horizons exceeding 15 percent are typically below a depth of 40 inches. It is nonsaline or slightly saline. COMPETING SERIES: These are the Aqua Fria,Ar Bacid, Bessemer, Falfa, Mughouse, Rencalson, Renohill, Ulm, Winklo, and Wyarno series. Aqua Fria soils: have gravel and cobble at depths of 18 to 36 inches and have noncalcareous A and Bt horizons. Arp soils: are moderately deep to paralithic contact Bacid soils: are leached in the upper part of the Bt horizon, from 8 to 20 inches deep Bessemer soils: average greater than 35 percent rock fragments below the argillic horizon Falfa soils: have hues of 2.5YR or redder in the argillic horizon Mughouse soils: have a lithic contact at depths of 20 to 40 inches Rencalson soils: are moderately deep to paralithic contact Renohill soils: are moderately deep to paralithic contact Ulm soils: are noncalcareous to depths of 12 to 30 inches, have neutral or slightly alkaline Bt horizons Winklo soils: are moderately deep to paralithic contact Wyarno soils: are less than 10 inches thick to the base of the Bt horizon GEOGRAPHIC SETTING: Landform: plains, alluvial fans, drainageways, valley side slopes, plains, or stream terraces. Slopes: 0 to 25 percent Parent material: alluvial materials derived principally from sedimentary rock Elevation: 3,600 to 6,000 feet Mean annual precipitation: 11 to 15 inches, at the type location approximately 13 inches Wettest periods: spring and early summer months. Mean annual air temperature: 49 to 54 degrees F. Frost free period: 110 to 165 days https://scilseries.sc.egov.usda.gov/OSD_Docs/M/MANZANOLA.htmi 213
