| dc.description.abstract | In the fall of 2016, students in the Geography 350: Soils and the Environment course investigated how soils vary across the landscape that is heavily influenced by slope. The study site is located south of Eau Claire near the Town of Bracket, on the property owned by Mr. and Mrs. Roger Henning. The five soil forming factors were used to observe the aspects of the study site. Four soil pits were hand excavated on a transect along the slope from the ridge top downhill about 220 meters, and analyzed using NRCS methods. The purpose of this study is to assess and determine the best land management practices for the study site based on soil characteristics. | en |
