12.PHYSICO-CHEMICAL ANALYSIS WITH REFERENCE TO SEASONAL CHANGES IN SOILS OF VICTORIA PARK RESERVE FOREST, BHAVNAGAR (GUJARAT) By H.A.SOLANKI AND N. H.CHAVDA
Abstract
The present study highlights the analysis of physicochemical properties of soil sediments of Victoria Park
reserve forest near Bhavnagar city. The soil in this forest is of three types. The first one is “Morrum”, it is
half decomposed soil just beneath the upper surface. The second type of soil is the coarse soil mixed with
clay and the third type is the yellowish brown soil. In the present work entire area of reserve forest were
divided into eight sampling sites. The soil parameters like pH, EC, Carbonate, Bicarbonate, Total
Hardness, Nitrogen, Potassium and Phosphorous content, heavy metals like Fe, Zn, Cu and Mn were
analyzed for pre and post monsoon period.
KEY WORD: Soil analysis, Victoria Park-Reserve Forest, Morrum, Coarse soil, Yellowish brown soil.
