Lozier
The Lozier soil is a mountain upland found in the Guadalupes of Texas. Latitude 31^o 49’N, Longitude 104^o 54’W. A soil profile description for the Lozier soil (loamy-skeletal, carbonatic, thermic, Lithic Calciorthid) from (Wilkey, 1979) is as follows:
 

Soil physical and chemical properties for this soil are as follows (Wilkey, 1979):
 

We have no water infiltration or redistribution data on this particular soil. The water contents as a function of potential were from pressure membrane apparatus data in the lab. Nkalai and Zartman (1985) report that noncalcareous soils have higher hydraulic conductivities than calcareous soils at the same water content. In situ soil water release curves indicated that calcareous soil have more water than noncalcareous soil at the same soil water potential in paired horizons.

Orla
The Orla (Fine-loamy, gypsic, thermic Typic Hallogypsids) soils are formed from lacustrine or alluvial deposits. This series is shallow, well drained, moderately permeable. The soils are located on level to gently sloping plains or depressional areas. The following three profiles are from Sexton (1975).
 

Reeves
The Reeves (Fine-loamy, gypsic, thermic Calcic Gypsiorthids) soils are formed in calcareous and gypsiferous fine textured alluvium derived from gypsum beds. This series has very deep, well drained moderately permeable soils. The soils are located on hillslopes, plateaus, and basin floors.
 

Upton
The Upton (Loamy, carbonatic, thermic, shallow Ustollic Paleorthids) soils are formed in calcareous loamy materials. This series has shallow to very shallow soils that are well drained and moderately permeable. The soils are located on nearly level to rolling uplands.
