1 Wassents Wassents are subaqueous Entisols. Defined as Entisols that have a positive water potential at the soil surface for at least 90% of each day. These soils are the first suborder to classify out under Entisols. The formative element Wass is derived from the German (Swiss) word wasser for water. Key to Great Groups LAA.
