Caneyhead soil series
Soil profile of Caneyhead silt loam in an area of Belrose-Caneyhead complex, 0 to 1 percent slopes. (Soil Survey of Tyler County, Texas; by Levi Steptoe, Jr., Natural Resources Conservation Services)
The Caneyhead series consists of very deep, very poorly drained soils. These depressional soils formed in loamy alluvium of Quarternary age. Slope ranges from 0 to 1 percent slope but mainly less than 0.5 percent. Mean annual temperature is about 20 degrees C (68 degrees F), and mean annual precipitation is about 1321 mm (52 in).
TAXONOMIC CLASS: Fine-silty, siliceous, active, thermic Typic Glossaqualfs
Soil Moisture: An aquic soil moisture regime.
Mean annual soil temperature: 20.6 to 21.7 degrees C (69 to 71 degrees F).
Exchangeable Sodium Percentage ranges from 0 to 5 throughout.
Aluminum saturation ranges from 35 to 56 percent throughout.
Depth to albic materials: 5 to 13 cm (2 to 5 in)
Depth to argillic horizon: 20 to 48 cm (8 to 19 in)
Depth to glossic horizon: 5 to 13 cm (2 to 5 in)
Particle-size control section (weighted average)
Clay content: 20 to 35 percent
Sands coarser than very fine sand: 3 to 14 percent
CEC/clay ratio: 0.4 to 0.5
USE AND VEGETATION: Used primarily for wildlife habitat. Native vegetation is black gum, water oak, red maple, sedges, rushes, panicums and paspalums.
DISTRIBUTION AND EXTENT: The Western Gulf Coast Flatwoods (MLRA 152B) of southeast Texas and possibly Louisiana. The series is of moderate extent. The Caneyhead soils were previously included with the Mollville and Guyton series.
