Aridisol

Aridisols are a type of soil found in dry, desert-like regions where moisture is limited. These soils are characterized by low organic matter and often contain soluble minerals like salts. Because of the dry conditions, they can be challenging for agriculture but can support specific plants adapted to arid environments. Aridisols are crucial for understanding desert ecosystems and managing land in arid areas. Proper management can help prevent land degradation and improve the sustainability of these environments for both natural habitats and human use.
