Placic horizons
Fe d -Fe o dominant ¼ ferrihydrite; some Al o Al p
and Al d Al o
Extractable Fe, Al; micromorphology
Two stages: (1) water is perched
between E and B due to
textural discontinuity; (2) Fe
in upper part of pedon is
reduced, then immobilized
and reoxidized at E-Bsm
interface
Wu and Chen ( 2005 )
High Fe o /Al o ; ferrihydrite and goethite dominant Extractable Fe, Al; micromorphology
Fe reduced in organic-rich
horizon under wet conditions
then reox-idized in drier
horizon below

Fe-OC complexes; isotropic microfabric; wide
Fe o /Al o ; high Fe o
Micromorphology; extractable Fe, Al
Forms due to redox processes
enhanced by high water table
Hseu et al. ( 1999 )
Lepidocrocite & ferrihydrite from DXRD; wide
Fe o /Al o
Scanning electron microscopy; energy dispersive
spectrometry; differential XRD; extractable
Fe, Al; micromorphology
Clay eluviation followed by
podzolization creates textural
discontinuity that enforces
episaturation; topsoil Fe is
reduced and mobilized, then
illuviated with clay &
organics
Jien et al. ( 2010 )
High Fe o ; wide Fe o /Al o
Extractable Fe, Al, Si
Fe precipitates at depth in profile
due to higher oxidation, pH
potential
