چکیده
جهت افزایش بهرهوری از خاک در کشاورزی پایدار، آگاهی از ویژگیهای مختلف آن ضروری میباشد. پژوهش حاضر به منظور مطالعه نحوه تشکیل، طبقهبندی، کانیشناسی و میکرومورفولوژی خاکهای منطقه فاریاب در استان کرمان با رژیم رطوبتی و حرارتی اریدیک و هایپرترمیک، در سطوح ژئومورفیک مختلف انجام گرفت. اشکال اراضی منطقه شامل مخروطافکنه، دشت رسوبی، اراضی پست و تپه در منطقه بودند. بر روی هر واحد ژئومورفیک، یک یا چند خاکرخ حفر، تشریح و نمونهبرداری شدند. نمونههای خاک تحت آزمایشهای معمول قرار گرفتند. نتایج نشان داد که با حرکت از واحدهای تپه و مخروط افکنه به سمت واحدهای پاییندست، بافت خاک سنگینتر، ظرفیت تبادل کاتیونی، ماده آلی، کربنات کلسیم معادل، هدایت الکتریکی، پهاش، نسبت سدیم جذبی، بیشتر و میزان گچ کمتر گردید. زیرگروه جدیـد Calcic Natrigypsids برای افزودن به تاکسونومی پیشنهاد میشود. کانیهای رسی شامل ایلیت، پالیگورسکیت، کلریت، اسمکتیت، کائولینیت، ورمیکولیت و کوارتز میباشند. بیشترین میزان پالیگورسکیت در افقهای تجمعی گچ در واحدهای تپه و مخروطافکنه بود و با حرکت به سمت واحدهای مرکزی دشت به میزان زیادی از مقدار آن کاسته و به میزان اسمکتیت افزوده شد. کانیهای کائولینیت، ایلیت و کلریت، کانیهای توارثی تشخیص داده شدند. بررسی مقاطع نازک نشاندهنده وجود کربنات کلسیم به شکلهای نودول، پوشش در دیواره حفرات میباشد. همچنین بلورهای گچ به فرم عدسیشکل، کروی و بیشکل و یا پرشدگی و یا به صورت صفحات در هم قفلشده مشاهده شدند. پوشش رسی در افق ناتریک در موقعیت اراضی پست در دیواره کانالهای خاک مشاهده شد. نتایج پژوهش، نمایانگر نقش مهم سطوح ژئومورفیک در تغییرپذیری ویژگیهای خاکهای منطقه مطالعاتی میباشد.

چکیده [English]
Introduction: In sustainable agriculture, it is essential to know soil various characteristics for increasing the soil productivity. The relationship between soil and geomorphology in arid and semi-arid regions has been considered by many researchers. Faryab plain is located in arid region of Kerman Province and has diversity in geomorphic positions and parent materials. No previous study has been conducted in this region. Therefore, the objectives of the present research were 1) to study the genesis and development of soils related to different geomorphic surfaces in Faryab region, 2) to study the physicochemical properties, clay mineralogy and micromorphology of soils, and 3) to classify the soils according to Soil Taxonomy (ST) (2014) and World Reference Base (WRB) (2015) systems and compare them.
Materials and Methods: Faryab region with a mean elevation of 630 m above sea level is located in Kerman province, south-eastern of Iran. Mean annual rainfall and temperature of the area are 160 mm and 23.8 oC, respectively. Soil temperature and moisture regimes of the area are thermic and aridic, respectively. From geological point of view, the studied area is a part of west and south west zones and Flysch zone of east of Iran. Ten representative pedons on different geomorphic units including hill, alluvil-colluvial fan, alluvial plain, and lowland were selected, sampled, and described. Routine physicochemical analyses, clay mineralogy, and micromorphological observations performed on soil samples. Soil pH, texture, electrical conductivity, calcium carbonate, Na, Ca, Mg, cation exchangeable capacity and gypsum were identified. Eight samples were selected for clay mineralogy investigations. Four slides including Mg saturated, Mg saturated treated with ethylene glycol, K saturated, and K saturated heated up to 550 oC were analyzed. A Brucker X-Ray diffractometer at 40 kV and 30 mA was used for XRD analyses. Undisturbed soil samples from some representative pedons were selected for micromorphological observations. A vestapol resin with stearic acid and cobalt as hardener was used for soil impregnation. A Lite petrographic microscope was used for micromorphology investigations.
Results and Discussion: The results of the present study indicated that the soils with more evolution were located on the geomorphic surfaces of the lowland and alluvial plain and the soils with lower development on the hill and alluvil-colluvial fan. The most important pedogenic processes of the soils were the eluviation of salt, gypsum, calcium carbonate as well as clay, and the formation of calcic, gypsic, petrogypsic and natric horizons. The soils of the region were classified using ST as Aridisols with three suborders of Argids, Calcids and Gypsids and classified according to the WRB as three soil reference groups of Solonetz, Gypsisols and Calcisolos. A new subgroup of Calcic Natrigypsids is suggested for inclusion to ST for the soils with aridic soil moisture regime and three horizons of gypsic, calcic and natric. The WRB system, due to its flexibility in the use of principle and supplementary qualifiers, prepare a better qualification than ST for the soils of the region. According to mineralogical results, the observed minerals consisted of illite, palygorskite, chlorite, smectite, kaolinite, vermiculite and quartz. The highest amount of palygorskite was observed in the gypsic horizons of hill and alluvil-colluvial fan. By moving to the central part of the plain (lowland), the amount of palygorskite was greatly reduced and the amount of smectite was increased. Two origins of inheritance and transformation (illite and palygorskite) are suggested for the occurrence of smectite in the soils. Due to the lack of the conditions for the formation of kaolinite, illite and chlorite, these minerals are inherited from parent materials. SEM observations suggested a pedogenic pathway for the occurrence of large amounts of palygorskite in the soils of the region. Calcareous and gypsiferous media seems to prepare a favorite environment for the pedogenic formation and stabilizing of this mineral in the studied soils. Coating and infilling of gypsum and calcite crystals in voids and channels, clay coating along chanels as well as Fe and Mn oxide nodules were among the common pedofeatures observed in the thin sections of the studied soils. Occurrence of variable habits of gypsum crystals in different geomorphic surfaces suggested a dynamic soil environment. Larger lenticular gypsum crystals were found in the soils with lighter texture located on more stable geomorphic surfaces.
Conclusion: Different geomorphic situations in the region affected the development and evolution, physicochemical properties, clay mineralogy, micromorphology and soil classification and caused the differences in these characteristics in the Faryab region.
