Trumaos are formed from young volcanic ash, by volcanic ash redeposited by aeolian processes or by volcanic ash mobilized as alluvium.〔 Trumaos are characterized by containing the following minerals: allophane, imogolite plus a series of paracrystalline and non-crystalline clays. These soils have high porosity and low bulk density.〔 A more dry and a more humid varierty of trumaos exists. The dry variety is known simply as trumao while the humid variety is known as trumao húmedo.〔 In terms of latitude trumaos can be found in the Andes from 33° S to 43° S, in the Central Valley from 38° S to 43° S and in the eastern slopes of the Chilean Coast Range from 39° S to 43° S. ==See also== *Andean Volcanic Belt *Cancagua *Ñadi 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Trumao」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
