<br />they were identified as Udorthents, which actually gave less information to the
<br />user of the soil survey report than the earlier generic, non - taxonomic names.
<br />Established series are now used for mapping minesoils.
<br />The National Cooperative Soil Survey is continuing efforts to develop
<br />minesoil classification. Regional, national, and international committees are
<br />actively reviewing available information and initiating new research to fill voids
<br />in the data base. An International Committee on Anthropogenic Soils has been
<br />charged with defining appropriate classes in Soil Taxonomy for all soils that have
<br />their major properties derived from human activities.
<br />XVII. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
<br />The authors acknowledge the assistance of Mr. Alex Topalanchik, Soil Cor-
<br />relator, with the Natural Resources Conservation Service in Morgantown, West
<br />Virginia, in the compilation of the established minesoil series list, and Dr. James A.
<br />DeMent, DeMent and Associates, Inc., for helpful comments on the manuscript.
<br />This chapter is the result of a joint contribution of the West Virginia Agri-
<br />cultural and Forestry Experiment Station and the Tennessee Agricultural Experi-
<br />ment Station. It was approved as scientific article no. 2500. This research was
<br />supported with funds appropriated under the Hatch Act.
