One of the chief characteristics of podsol soils is the accumulation of organic matter and sesquioxides in the B horizon of these soils. In recent years several workers have studied characteristics of soluble organic matter leaching from the overlying organic layer of these soils and passing downward through the profile. However, it has not been established that these organic materials or any part of these are deposited in the B horizon of podsol soils, or if the organic matter leached from the organic layer in aqueous solution is similar in nature to the organic matter deposited in the B horizon.
