Annarose soil series
A representative soil profile of Annarose fine sandy loam, 2 to 5 percent slopes. Noticeable increases of calcium carbonate occur at about 60 centimeters. (Soil Survey of Live Oak County, Texas; by Paul D. Holland, Natural Resources Conservation Service)
The Annarose series consists of soils that are deep to weakly consolidated sandstone. These well drained soils formed in calcareous sandy and loamy residuum derived from the Oakville Sandstone and Fleming Formation of the Tertiary Period. These gently and moderately sloping soils are on summits and shoulders of broad interfluves. Slopes range from 2 to 8 percent. Mean annual temperature is 22 degrees C (72 degrees F) and mean annual precipitation is about 610 mm (24 in).
TAXONOMIC CLASS: Coarse-loamy, mixed, superactive, hyperthermic Aridic Calciustepts
Soil Moisture: An aridic-ustic moisture regime. The soil moisture control section is dry in some or all parts for more than 90 days but less than 180 cumulative days in normal years.
Mean annual soil temperature: 22 to 23 degrees C (72 to 74 degrees F)
Particle-size control section (weighet average)
Clay content: 12 to 18
USE AND VEGETATION: Used mainly for rangeland and wildlife habitat. Some areas are used for cropland. Native grasses are twoflower and fourflower trichloris, pink pappusgrass, plains bristlegrass, hooded windmillgrass and lovegrass tridens. Woody plants include guajillo, mountain laurel, paloverde, mesquite, and agarita.
DISTRIBUTION AND EXTENT: In the northeastern part of the Central Rio Grande
Plain; LRR I; MLRA 83C; moderate extent.
