-- Name --
particle size fraction type
share of the soil that is composed of mineral soil particles of the size within the size range specified.
-- Description --
Mineral part of the soil, fractioned on the basis of size (diameter), limits of the particles. It is the fine earth fraction. That is, the portion of the soil that passes through a 2 mm diameter sieve opening.
The grain (or particle) size distribution characterizes the soil mineral material, based on the share of each equivalent diameter class of the individual particles.
