The purpose of the study and research undertaken over a long period of time has its origins in current scientific and practical concerns regarding the accumulation of knowledge about the physical-geographical characteristics and of its zonal particularities, as an element that define the structure of the land fund and the quality of soils, necessary to substantiate the technologies of sustainable management of the physical, geographical, climatic and edaphic conditions from that space. The issue addressed is a com...

Hydric soils, named as Gleysols and Stagnosols, have formed under conditions of saturation, flooding or ponding long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part of soil profile. If microbes are active (>50C), if the soil is saturated with stagnant water, and there is a source of usable organic matter in the soil, then redox feauter will result. In the region Banat, situated in the north west of Romania, there is a large area with soils that have water excess: hydric soils, wi...
