Definition
-texture- relative proportions of sand, silt, and clay particles (sandy
soils --> more leaching, but clay can leach too)
-structure- shape/arrangement soil particles (macropores- holes in
soils) (more macropores --> more leaching)
,-organic matter- (higher org --> less leaching)
-depth to groundwater- shallow water table --> higher chance
contamination
-geology- high permeable materials (ie gravel deposits)
--> more leaching
