Two soils representative of the coast and three representing the Willamette Valley have been studied for their general chemical
characteristics. Exchange capacity and exchangeable cations were

buffer methods. Exchange capacity was also obtained from conductimetric
titrations which were run on each soil...

A study was conducted to investigate the nature of hydroxy
interlayers in the chlorite-like intergrade clays of three Oregon
soils with respect to kind, amount, stability, and conditions of
formation.
The clays of the Hembre, Wren, and Lookout soils, selected to
represent weathering products originating from basaltic materials
under humid,...
