 Sodic Soils   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
A decision to map the global distribution of salt-affected soils at a scale of 1: 5 000 000 was made at an international meeting in Budapest in October 1967 and the paper entitled `Australian soils with saline and sodic properties' was the Australian contribution to the task (Northcote and Skene, 1972).
In an important paper concerned specifically with the sodicity and salinity in Australia, Northcote and Skene (1972) suggested that a soil was "sodic" if the ESP was in the range 6-14 in the top metre of a soil profile.
According to the scheme of Northcote (1979), the alkaline soils comprised red and yellow duplex soils, calcareous earths and self-mulching cracking clays whilst the neutral and acidic soil classes were predominantly yellow duplex types.
