podzol

In soil science, Podsol (also spelled Podzol, or known as Spodosol) is the typical soil of coniferous, or Boreal forests. They are also the typical soils of eucalypt forests and heathlands in southern Australia. The name is Russian for "under ash" (pod=under, zola=ash) and likely refers to the common experience of Russian peasants of plowing up an apparent under-layer of ash (leached or E horizon) during first plowing of a virgin soil of this type. These soils are found in areas that are wet and cold (for example in Northern Ontario or Russia) and also in warm areas such as Florida where sandy soils have fluctuating water tables (humic variant of the northern podzol or Humod). An example of a warm-climate podzol is the Myakka fine sand, state soil of Florida.
