Gallery of texture triangles

Last update: 2015-02-12

This page presents a gallery of texture triangles, as generated with my R package soiltexture.

Page content: HYPRES / European Soil Map · USDA · Aisne (FR) · GEPPA (FR) · Bodenkundliche Kartieranleitung 1994 (DE) · Soil Survey of England and Wales (UK) · Autralia (AU) · Belgium (BE) · Canada (CA) · ISSS · SRTS 2003 · Standortserkundungsanweisung SEA 1974 (DE) · TGL 24300-05, landwirtschaftliche Boeden (DE) · USDA 1911 (M. Whitney, 1911) - Ternary Plot · Brasil - Lemos & Santos (1996) · PL

Notes on non-explicit triangle names:

• "ISSS" is the triangle from the International Society of Soil Science (now International Union of Soil Sciences - IUSS).
• "SRTS 2003" is a Romanian texture triangle.
• "Standortserkundungsanweisung SEA 1974 (DE)", "TGL 24300-05" and "landwirtschaftliche Boeden (DE)" are three German texture triangles (presently used, or used in the past).
• "PL" is a Polish texture triangle.
• "USDA 1911 (M. Whitney, 1911)" is a historical version of the USDA texture triangle.

See the package tutorial for more information on all these texture triangles.
