OBJECTIVE FORESTRY

Detailed explanation-1: -Topography-Slope and aspect affect the moisture and temperature of soil. Steep slopes facing the sun are warmer. Steep soils may be eroded and lose their topsoil as they form. Thus, they may be thinner than the more nearly level soils that receive deposits from areas upslope.

Detailed explanation-2: -Scientists attribute soil formation to the following factors: Parent material, climate, biota (organisms), topography and time.

Detailed explanation-3: -The term topography refers to the configuration of the land’s surface. The topography of an area incorporates its relief (relative differences in elevation), its aspect (position with respect to compass coordinates), and the general shape and connectivity of land surfaces.

Detailed explanation-4: -Topography (Relief, Altitude, and Slope):-It is considered a passive factor in climate change because it influences soil processes, soil distribution, and the form of vegetation. 7. Time:-The formation of the soil is not a one-day process, but takes several years of formation.
