Limnosols

Limno-sols are specialized soils found in wet or areas that frequently flood, called wetlands or marshes. They have unique features due to constant moisture, such as high organic material content and specific mineral compositions. These soils often have a distinct color and structure shaped by ongoing water interactions, which influence plant growth and water filtration. Limno-sols are important for maintaining healthy aquatic ecosystems, supporting diverse plant and animal life, and managing water quality. Their unique properties make them critical for ecological balance, though they can be sensitive to human activities like drainage or development.
