Norge soil series
Soil profile: A representative soil profile of the Norge series. (Soil Survey of Noble County, Oklahoma: by Gregory F. Scott, Troy L. Collier, Jim E. Henley, R. Dwaine Gelnar, and Karen B. Stevenson, Natural Resources Conservation Service)
The Norge series consists of very deep, well drained, moderately slowly permeable upland soils that formed in loamy alluvium of Pleistocene age. These nearly level to sloping soils occur on flats and upper side slopes of upland terraces. Slopes range from 0 to 8 percent. Mean annual temperature is 16.1 degrees C (61 degrees F), and mean annual precipitation is 864 mm (34 in).
TAXONOMIC CLASS: Fine-silty, mixed, active, thermic Udic Paleustolls
Soil Moisture: Udic Ustic soil moisture regime
Solum thickness: more than 152 cm (60 in)
Thickness of mollic epipedon: is 30 to 41 cm (11 to 16 in)
Depth to secondary carbonates: is more than 102 (40 in)
Depth to argillic horizon: 45 to 105 cm (18 to 41 in)
USE AND VEGETATION:
Major uses: cultivated small grains, grain sorghums, cotton, and alfalfa are the principal crops. Some areas are used for tame pasture or rangeland. Native vegetation: consists of mid and tall grasses.
