The information obtained through the humic fractions distribution can be used in brazilian soil studies as a diagnostic attribute or differential characteristic and therefore, contribute to the evolution of Brazilian System of Soil Classification (SiBCS). The objective of this study was to quantify the organic carbon in humic fractions of surface and subsurface diagnostic soil horizons and propose the use in the brazilian system of soil classification. A total of 169 diagnostic horizons distributed between Folistic Epipedon (O hístico), Histic Epipedon (H hístico), […]
