Soil and Landscape Grid National Soil Attribute Maps - Pedogenons (3" resolution) - Release 1
This map gives a modelled estimate of the spatial distribution of Pedogenon soil classes across Australia.<br><br>
Pedogenon mapping is a method for stratifying the landscape (similar to soil-landscape units), which can be used to assess past soil change with a space-for-time substitution approach.<br><br>
Pedogenon classes are a conceptual taxa that aim to define groups of homogeneous environmental variables. These groups are created applying unsupervised classification to a set of state variables, proxies of the soil-forming factors for a given reference time. The assumption is that the soil-forming processes within these classes (i.e., pedogenons) have been relatively similar over pedogenetic time and thus have developed soils with similar properties. Pedogenon classes can afterwards be divided into subclasses along a gradient from less (i.e., remnant pedogenons) to more anthropogenic pressure on soils (i.e., pedophenons), in an analogous way to the concept of genoform and phenoform (Rossiter and Bouma, 2018). The assessment of changes in soil condition can be done with a space for time substitution within and across pedogenon classes. The conceptualization and methodology for pedogenon mapping and using the classes as basis to assess changes in soil condition are explained with more detail in two publications (Román Dobarco et al., 2021a; Román Dobarco et al., 2021b).<br><br>
