Utticlal 5enes 1)escnption - ~~1~ I;ULLIN~ Jenes <br />rage s or 4 <br />Bosonoak soils have secondary carbonates in the surface. <br />Cam, Celacy, Celavar, Elwop, Evpark, Gateson, Nyjack, Oldwolf, and Ribera soils have a lithic or <br />paralithic contact above 102 centimeters (40 inches). <br />Flugle soils have greater than 35 percent fine sand and coarser in the particle size control section. <br />Iwela soils have a lithologic discontinuity of stones at 66 centimeters (26 inches) and the moisture <br />control section is dry in may and June. <br />Lykorly soils have up to 25 centimeters (10 inches} of overburden over a lithologic discontinuity with <br />additional clay content and have a moisture control section that is dry in May and June. <br />Navajita soils have a 5 to 10 percent pararock fragments. <br />Orlie and Parkelei soils are dry inmost parts of the moisture control section in May and June when the <br />soil temperature at 51 centimeters (20 inches) is greater than 5 degrees C. (41 degrees F.) <br />Pinitos and Ribera soils have moisture control sections that are dry in May and June. <br />Olnest and Rockybutte soils may have rock fragments through out the profile. <br />Stoneham soils have less than 15 percent fine sand or coarser. <br />Toluca soils are noncalcareous above 25 centimeters (10 inches). <br />GEOGRAPHIC SETTING: <br />Parent materials: alluvium (may be modified by a thin mantle of eolian deposits) <br />Landscape: terraces, hills, plains, or alluvial fans <br />Slopes: 0 to 10 percent <br />Mean annual precipitation: 33 to 43 centimeters (13 to 17 inches) <br />Mean annual temperature: 7 to 12 degree C. (45 to 53 degrees F.) <br />Mean summer temperature: 14 to 21 degrees C. (57 to 70 degrees F.) <br />GEOGRAPHICALLY ASSOCIATED SOILS: These are the competing Stoneham and Oinest soils. <br />DRAINAGE AND SATURATED HYDRAULIC CONDUCTIVITY: <br />Drainage: well drained <br />Runoff: medium <br />Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity: moderately high <br />USE AND VEGETATION: These soils are used as native pastureland and as dry and irrigated <br />cropland. <br />Principal irrigated crops are small grains, alfalfa, corn, sorghums, and sugar beets. <br />Dryland crops are limited primarily to winter urheat. <br />Native vegetation is blue grama grass, wheatgrass and some buffalo grass. <br />DISTRIBUTION AND EXTENT: Eastern Colorado, Montana, and Wyoming. The series is of large <br />extent. MLRA 67 <br />MLRA OFFICE RESPONSIBLE: Salina, Kansas <br />SERIES ESTABLISHED: The Greeley Area, Colorado, 1904. <br />REMARKS: Diagnostic horizons and features recognized in this pedon are: <br />Argillic horizon: 20 to 46 centimeters (8 to 18 inches) <br />This series is changed in class from Ustollic Haplargids to Aridic Haplustalfs due to update and revision <br />of higher moisture levels in the moisture control section. <br />Last updated by the state 3/94. <br />http://ortho.ftw.nres.usda.gov/cgi-bin/osd/osdname.cgi?-P 1/27/2006 <br />
