The watersheds soil is generally shallow and has a heavy clay content. Soil samples were collected from three soil depths (0-20 cm, 20-40 cm, 46-60 cm) from twelve profile pits excavated in each of the watersheds. The mean soil textures found in the FW are 31% sand, 23% silt, and 46% clay and in the AW, 33% sand, 18% silt, and 49% clay. Moreover, the clay content is higher in the subsoil. The geological structure of the entire FW and nearly half of the AW consists of Lower Ordovician and Lower Eocene sandstone-mudstone, shelf and sedimentary rock groups, while that of the other half of the AW is Lower Eocene argillaceous limestone, shelf and sedimentary rock groups (GDMRE, 2002). In some parts of the AW, limestone bedrock is found on the surface and the soil depth drops to 20 cm.
