Some T2 Terrace Soils of Peninsular Malaysia: I. Micromorphology, Genesis and Classification

18 profiles belonging to 14 soil series of the Tz terrace soils of Peninsular Malaysia were studied. The soils are derived from alluvial materials of mixed origin of Holocene age. They are mainly Inceptisols. Others are classified as Entisols, Ultisols and Alfisols. The study indicates that the so...
