WHAT DOES PODSOL MEAN IN ENGLISH?

podsol

Podzol

In soil science, podzols are the typical soils of coniferous, or boreal forests. They are also the typical soils of eucalypt forests and heathlands in southern Australia, while in Western Europe podzols develop on heathland, which is often a construct of human interference through grazing and burning. Many podzols in this region may have developed over the past 3000 years in response to vegetation and climatic changes. In some British moorlands with podzolic soils there are brown earths preserved under Bronze Age barrows. “Podzol” is Russian for "under ash" and likely refers to the common experience of Russian peasants of plowing up an apparent under-layer of ash during first plowing of a virgin soil of this type. Podzols are found in areas that are wet and cold and also in warm areas such as Florida, southern Australia and parts of South America. An example of a warm-climate podzol is the Myakka fine sand, state soil of Florida. Podzols cover about 4,850,000 square kilometres worldwide and are usually found under sclerophyllous woody vegetation.
