Resumen
Descripción
Vertisols are soils constituted by very particular characteristics that are being studied in the world from different approaches (genesis, classification and characterization) and overall in the last years in relation with soil cracking and water availability in these soils. This paper presents the last criteria to the diagnosis of characteristics that define the classification of Vertisols; at a world level (Soil Taxonomy and World Reference Base), as well as in Cuban clasification. Also, physical, morphological and chemical properties are shown in three soil profiles studied near City of Havana, in low parts of the relief with a tropical sub humid climate with 1100 to 1300 mm of rainfall in the year. Finally this paper highlights that it is the first time of the characterization and classification of Vertisols in provinces near to Havana City (Mayabeque and Artemisa province).
