RESUMO

The Pantanal is the largest continental flood plains, comprising a mosaic of different habitats, maintaining plant diversity, animal and soil. It consists of eleven sub-regions, one of which the of the Pantanal of Barão de Melgaço, which is located north of the Quaternary sedimentary basin. It presents a spatial heterogeneity that is related to the diversity of geomorphic features. This, added to the types of flooding and soil, generate a wide variety of microhabitats: Cordileira paleoriverbanks, termite hills, the forms of relief are rarely flooded, while the Plains river, Grasslands, Bays, Corixo and present ebb Annual floods or permanent. In the Pantanal of Barão de Melgaço, the above sea level ranging from 100 to 150m and the slope is negligible. The parent material of the soil is composed of sandy sediment, síltico-sand, clay-sandy and sandyconglomerate semiconsolidados the consolidated Training Pantanal. It contains a unique diversity of soils, often with 2:1 mineralogy, whose morphology reflects the conditions of water regime of each microenvironment: Planosols, Plinthosols, Solonetz, Vertisols and Fluvisols are distributed according to the geomorphic features found, and the great most affected by processes redoximorphic. The goal of this dissertation was to characterize and identify the processes pedogenetic soil of a system pedological Solonetz-Plinthosol in two of the main geomorphic features of the Pantanal of Barão de Melgaço. The study was conducted in RPPN (Private Reserve of Natural Heritage) SESC Pantanal, in the Barão de Melgaço county, State of Mato Grosso from Brazil. The transition of Solonetz for Plinthosol is given by the gradual loss of sodium and increase character of the plintização. As is the reduction of the saturation of Na+, the CEC soil becomes saturated by Al3+. The presence of soil character natric in the hillslope is an evidence of climate changes that occurred in the Pantanal, where the soils relic. The main causes of maintenance of high levels of Na in Solonetz are very closed the porosity of subsurface horizons and high rates of evapotranspiration in the Pantanal. The nodules of Fe and Mn that occur in these soils are not relic and were formed and are still forming in weather conditions to actually.
