Summary

Soil survey maps were examined to better understand the surficial materials at each study site. Soil maps provide information about soil properties and their behavioral characteristics. Soil survey maps were generated using the United States Department of Agriculture-Natural Resources Conservation Service’s (USDA-NRCS) Web Soil Survey (WSS) tool (http://websoilsurvey.sc.egov.usda.gov/). The USDA-NRCS WSS maps are presented as separate Portable Document Format (PDF) files. References Soil Survey Staff, Natural Resources Conservation Service, United States Department of Agriculture.

Purpose

Soil survey maps were produced for the vicinity around each of the six study sites. Files included here are PDF files showing soils near study sites as follows: 1-HighLogCrk_SoilMap.pdf shows soil types near High Log Creek near Hatchechubbee site, 2-CahabaRvrTrib_SoilMap shows soil types near the unnamed tributary to Cahaba River, 3-SandyCrkTrib_SoilMap shows soil types near the unnamed tributary to Sandy Creek, 4-OakmulgeeCrk_SoilMap shows soil types near Oakmulgee Creek near Lawley, 5-NorthingtonCrk_SoilMap shows soil types near Northington Branch near Detroit, and 6-LyeBranch_SoilMap shows soil types near Lye Branch near Duncanville.
