Very xeric Water removed extremely rapidly in relation to supply soil is moist for a negligible time after precipitation.Phonetic Spelling AY-ser pla-tan-OY-dees Description Water removed very rapidly in relation to supply soil is moist for brief periods following precipitation. Xeric Dry and drought resistant, little moisture retention, excessively drained - May have multiple assignments. Water removed rapidly in relation to supply soil is moist for short periods following precipitation. Sub-xeric Moist to dry, seasonally moist, periodically dry. Sub-mesic Water removed readily in relation to supply water available for moderately short periods following precipitation. Available soil moisture reflects climatic. Water removed somewhat slowly in relation to supply soil may remain moist for a significant, but sometimes short period of the year. Mesic Moist, adequate soil moisture retention year-round. Sub-hygric Water removed slowly enough to keep soil wet for a significant part of growing season some temporary seepage and possibly mottling below 20 cm. Hygric Water removed slowly enough to keep soil wet for most of growing season permanent seepage and mottling gleyed (greenish-blue-grey) colors common. Sub-hydric Water removed slowly enough to keep water table at or near surface for most of year gleyed mineral or organic soils permanent seepage < 30 cm below surface. Water removed so slowly that water table is at or above soil surface all year gleyed mineral or organic soils. Soil Moisture Definitions Hydric Wet, plants periodically or often inundated by water.
