Dina soil series
A representative soil profile of Dina cobbly silty clay loam, in an area of Dina-Eckrant complex, 1 to 8 percent slopes. The mollic epipedon is 20 centimeters thick. The red coatings on the rock fragments are iron oxides and clay. .(Soil Survey of Edwards and Real Counties, Texas; by Wayne J. Gabriel, Dr. Lynn E. Loomis, and James A. Douglass II Natural Resources Conservation Service)
The Dina series consists of moderately deep, well drained, moderately slowly permeable soils that formed in clayey residuum over limestone bedrock. These soils are on nearly level to gently sloping upland plateaus and ridges. Slopes range from 0 to 6 percent.
TAXONOMIC CLASS: Clayey-skeletal, smectitic, thermic Pachic Paleustolls
Solum thickness is 20 to 40 inches over limestone bedrock. Thickness of the mollic epipedon is 20 to 36 inches. Coarse fragments are angular or rounded chert and limestone pebbles, cobbles, and stones. Chert pebbles on the soil surface range from 5 to 15 percent. Chert and limestone cobbles and stones 3 to 24 inches in diameter comprise 2 to 45 percent by volume of any horizon. Reaction is medium acid through slightly alkaline.
USE AND VEGETATION: Used for rangeland. Native grasses include sideoats grama, Texas grama, silver bluestem, curlymesquite, plains lovegrass, and Texas wintergrass. Woody vegetation includes live oak, mesquite, hackberry, lotebush condalia, whitebrush, agarito, and pricklypear.
DISTRIBUTION AND EXTENT: Southwest Texas in the Central Edwards Plateau. The series is of moderate extent.
