Soils of the Savannah River Project, Aiken, South Carolina
The author mapped and evaluated soils of the Savannah River Project for management. The Author mapped the soils of the Savannah River Project area and evaluated their suitability for various management activities. The latter included forestry and industrial uses. In general the soil of the Savannah River Project area are representative of the sandhills and upper coastal plain geological complex. Soils in the uplands are dominated by sand overlying clays that are suitable for pine management. Soils in the area adjacent to the Savannah River are the most biologically productive and consist of heavy clay and silt deposition. The project provided a common nomenclature for soil mapping consistent with the SCS Survey Procedures
