    Definition type of soil, including underwater and tidal soil, - having a base saturation of greater than or equal to 50% at least between 20 and 50 cm from the soil surface, and - saturated with groundwater or upwards-moving gases for long enough periods to develop low relative humidity and/or the presence of sulfide, methane or reduced Fe, resulting in a 'gleyic colour pattern' (reddish, brownish or yellowish colours at the surface of natural soil aggregates or in the upper soil layers, in combination with greyish/bluish colours within the soil aggregates and deeper in the soil) within 50 cm of the soil surface, and - having no distinct soil horizons or abrupt textural change within 100 cm of the soil surface Reference "COM-EN, based on: - 'Eutric', 'Gleysol; Ground-water soil (2)' and 'Gleysolic soil' in Canarache, A, Vintila, I and Munteanu, I (2006), Elsevier’s Dictionary of Soil Science: In English (with definitions), French, German and Spanish, Burlington, San Diego and London;- World reference base for soil resources 2014 (fao.org); and- gleysols.PDF (isric.org)"
