Profile of Ubly soil. This example has decomposing leaf litter from 0 to 1 inch. In the last 10,000 years the soil forming processes have resulted in: a mineral layer enriched with organic matter from 1 to 4 inches; a layer leached of clay and iron from 4 to 8 inches; a layer with accumulated iron, aluminum, and organic matter from 8 to 19 inches; and a layer with accumulated clay from 19 to 44 inches with the top 9 inches of this layer experiencing additional leaching of clay. Depth is marked in inches.
