Definitions:

Soil PH

A measure of the acidity or alkalinity of soil, affecting nutrient availability, microbial activity, and plant growth.

Acidic Soil

Soil with a pH value below 7, characterized by its capacity to mobilize some nutrients while potentially limiting the availability of others, affecting plant growth and soil health.

Pygmy Forest

A unique ecosystem characterized by stunted trees, often found on nutrient-poor, acidic soils.

Cation Exchange

Process in which root cells secrete protons (H+), which replace cations adhering to soil particles, thereby releasing them for absorption by the roots.
