Ilgaz Dağları Periglasyal Şekillerinde Oluşmuş Toprakların Fizikokimyasal Özellikleri ile Bazı Erozyon Duyarlılık Parametreleri Arasındaki İlişkilerin Belirlenmesi

Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine some relationships between some soil erodibility properties and physicochemical of soils formed on various periglacial landforms which are garland, stone cluster, circle, congeliturbation and thufur in Ilgaz Mountains. In addition it was found relationships between elevation and some soil erodibility properties in this study. For this aim, total 27 soil samples were collected from various periglacial landforms located at between 1943 m and 2398 m. Texture, pH, EC, organic matter, lime content, bulk density and hydraulic conductivity of soils were analysed and it was indicated significant relationships between these properties and aggregate stability (AS), dispersion ratio (DR), structure stability index (SSI), clay ratio (CR) and crust formation (CF). In addition, it was determined significant differences between elevation and AS, DR and CF, whereas it was found that there is not a significant relationships between elevation and SSI and CR.
