Young soil orders include Entisols, such as those found in areas with recent volcanic activity. Middle-aged soil orders include Alfisols, typically found in temperate regions with moderate leaching and mineral accumulation. Older soil orders include Oxisols, found in tropical regions with intense weathering and leaching resulting in highly-weathered, nutrient-poor soils.
