Hydromorphy

Hydromorphy is the saturation of the pores of soil by water for a more or less long part of the year.

This saturation causes anoxy which disturbs the soil fauna and vegetation.

It also affects the minerals in the soil leading to the formation of red deposits of iron oxide, blue-green deposits of reduced iron and black ferro-manganic concretions (iron and manganese).
