Preferred term

Podzols

Podzols have an illuvial horizon with accumulation of black organic matter and/or reddish Fe oxides. This illuvial horizon is typically overlain by an ash-grey eluvial horizon. Podzols occur in humid areas in the boreal and temperate zones and locally also in the tropics. The name Podzol is used in most national soil classification systems; other names for many of these soils are Spodosols (China and United States of America), Espodossolos (Brazil) and Podosols (Australia).
