Potential rootzone depth for irrigated horticultural crops is affected by a range of soil parameters (e.g. soil physical condition, hard rock or hardpan, soluble salts, boron... -
Biophysical Regions of Southern South Australia (soil landscapes)
Department for Environment and Water
Biophysical Regions represent the largest grouping of Soil Landscape Map Units within the SA soil and land mapping hierarchy. These cover broad geographical areas, recognisable... -
Soil Salinity - Watertable induced
Department for Environment and Water
This assessment refers to salinity which is linked to watertables. Soluble salts in soils affect plant growth by restricting water uptake. Salinity has varying degrees of... -

Soil Mass Movement (landslip)
Department for Environment and Water
Mass movement (landslip) occurs on sloping ground where large slabs of the ground surface slide downhill. Mapping shows the extent of, or potential for, landslip, while detailed... -
Physical Condition of Surface Soil
Department for Environment and Water
Physical condition of surface soil mapping highlights areas where plant growth may be impeded due to poor surface soil structure, predominantly due to a condition known as hard... -
Surface Soil Acidity (ASRIS)
Department for Environment and Water
Soils are classified according to the pH of the surface layer, according to the lower pH values recorded among similar soils, i.e. it is assumed that each soil class has a... -
Soil Alkalinity
Department for Environment and Water
Alkalinity is usually an inherent characteristic of soils, and alkaline soils are largely confined to areas with less than 400 mm annual rainfall. Mapping shows surface and...
