ANALYSIS OF THE INFLUENCE OF PEDOGENESIS FACTORS ON SOIL FORMATION USING MODERN METHODS
Abstract
The main objective of this study is to analyse the main pedogenesis factors that have contributed to the formation of soils in Seca?, Timi? County, Romania, using modern methods. The pedological data found in the study are represented by the transformation of analogue maps into digital maps using the GIS method. To begin with, the study area, geomorphology, geology, hydrology and hydrography of the locality, climate and vegetation conditions, decisive factors in the formation of soils in the study area were delimited. Anthropic activity is an important factor in the formation and maintenance of soil fertility, the use of soils in a correct and efficient way with respect for the environment by practicing a sustainable, efficient and high-quality agriculture does nothing but increase the level and quality of life on Earth. The data taken from specialised studies, from the town hall of the Secas and from O.S.P.A. Timi? were supplemented with data from the field and, then, processed using modern methods; they were finally completed by the elaboration of maps that show land configuration, slopes, and hydrography and hydrology and how to use soils in the locality. Following the elaboration of maps using modern methods, an assessment of soils in the area can be made, taking into account these pedogenesis factors and the quality of the land; one can also determine the most suitable crops depending on the type and subtype of soil and, in the case of less productive soils, what measures must be taken to increase their fertility.
