Abstract
Soil characteristics are decisive in groundwater quality. The impact of human activities, especially in areas subject to agricultural pressure, involves potential risks which may be critical to the viability of the water resource. This work gathers together the study of three representative soils located in the thermal environment of “Villa Olmedo”, Valladolid. All of them have developed from arkoses and found around 750 m elevation in a zone of flat topography. Morphological, physical, chemical and mineralogical properties of these soils were analyzed. They are poorly developed, coarse textured, with pH close to neutrality and antric features in the surface horizons.
