Genesis and distribution of soils in relation to parent material and relief in the Central region of Santa Cruz province

Soil-landscape relationships were studied in the central region of Santa Cruz, southern Argentina, between 49-51°S on the Atlantic coast westward to the international border with Chile. Two different sectors were distinguished. The western area, including the Patagonian Andean Cordillera and piedmon...
