Laboratory Analysis for this Pedon
Site Record ID: 1
Pedon Record ID: 1
Pedon ID: S07MA023001
Site ID: S07MA023001-Tihonet
Description Date: 7/30/2007 10:33:57 AM
Print Date: 9/4/2007
Describer: Al Averill and Rob Tunstead
Site Notes: Text: The site is a former Kame that was mined to apparent ground water elevation and converted from a gravel pit to a cranberry bog/bed. The cranberry cultivation has since been abandoned.
Pedon Notes: Text: This will hopefully be a new type location for Tihonet. No clods were taken, only bulk samples were retrieved. ESHWT was 4 inches. The largest diameter rock fragment was 15 cm. A tree branch was discovered in the 2Cg horizon. The branch was 130cm long.
