The territory we studied, the Torontal Plane, has a single relief unit, plain, which in its turn is made up of a low plain with Aeolian deposits, a low plain with alluvial-proluvial deposits, a low plain with fluvial-lacustrian deposits, and the Mureş Flooded Plain. The influence and action in time of soil and climate factors (relief, rock, climate, hydrology) as well as human intervention through major hydro-ameliorative works started well two hundreds of years ago resulted in a soil cover of extreme complexity and diversity.
