� � have sapric material dominant in the control section and Tacoosh soils have mineral substrata at depChs ranging from 16 to about 50 inches. Carlisle, Houghton, and Lena soils have sapric � material dominant in the control section. ln addition, Lena soils are calcareous throughout. Caron soils have limnic substrata at depths ranging from 16 to about 50 inches. � GEOGRAPHIC SETTING: Boots soils are in depressions within moraines, outwash areas, and lake basins. Slopes are less than 2 percent. Mean annual precipitation ranges from 28 to 33 inches. Mean annual air temperature is estimated to range from 45 to 54 degrees F. � GEOGRAPHICALLY ASSOCIATED SOILS: These are the competing H��u��hton soils and the Adrian and I'alms soils. These soils occupy similar positions on the landscape. Adrian and Palms soils consist of sapric material above mineral substrata which is at depths of less than 50 � inches. Very poorly drained, poorly drained, or somewhat poorly drained mineral soils are commonly along the outer boundary. DRAINAGE AND PERMEABILITY: Very poorly drained. The potential for surface runoff is � negligible. Permeability is moderate or moderately rapid. These soils have an apparent seasonal high water table from 1 foot above the surface to l foot below for long periods in most years. USE AND VEGETATION: These soils are primarily in woodland, but in some places the � vegetation is chiefly reeds, sedges, and cattails. Principal woodland vegetation is tamarack, dogwood, poison sumac, alder, and willow with ground cover of sphagnum moss, marsh grasses, sedges, reeds, and cattails. Ground cover varies with amount of sunlight and microrelief. , DISTRIBUTION AND EXTENT: South-central part of Wisconsin, northern Iowa, southern Minnesota, southern Michigan, and New York. The series is moderately extensive. MLRA OFFICE RESPONSIBLE: St. Paul, Minnesota , SERIES ESTABLISHED: Columbia County, Wisconsin, 1972. REMARKS: It is believed that the depressional positions, which these soils occupy, are frost � pockets with a slightly cooler microclimate than adjacent uplands. Diagnostic horizons and features recognized in this pedon are: Organic material has 12 percent or more organic carbon and is dominatly hemic in the subsurface � tier (12 to 36 inches). The fiber content meets neither the rubbed fiber content or sodium pyrophosphate solubility requirements for either fibric or sapric materials. Soil temperature is mesic (47 to 59 degrees F). � National Cooperative Soil Survey U.S.A. ' LOCATION GLENCOE MN+IA Established Series I Rev. KDS-AGG 06/2001 GLENCOE SERIES � The Glencoe series consists of very deep, very poorly drained soils that formed in loamy sediments from glacial till on glacial moraines. These soils have moderate or moderately slow � permeability. Slopes are 0 to 1 percent. Mean annual precipitation is about 28 inches.
