It forms in tropical and subtropical regions where the climate is humid. Laterite has been used as iron ore and, in Cuba, as a source of nickel. Chernozem is one of the 30 soil groups in the classification system of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). Chernozems are humus-rich grassland soils used extensively for growing cereals. Chernozem form in climatic zones with seasonal rainfall of 450–600 mm (18–24 inches) per year. Spodosol soil is ashy gray, acidic soil with a strongly leached surface layer. Spodosols generally develop under cooler climatic regimes. Podzol soils are strongly acid soils that usually have a bleached horizon immediately beneath the topsoil. Podzol soils occur in areas of high rainfall mainly in temperate and boreal regions and in the humid tropics under light forest.
