Soil Type
Most of South Korea's soils derive from granite and gneiss.
Sandy and brown-coloured soils are common, and they are
generally well-leached and have little humus content. Podzolic
soils (ash-gray forest soils), resulting from the cold of the long
winter season, are found in the highlands

Wind
The prevailing winds in Seoul are influenced by the East Asian monsoon system,
which brings different wind directions during different seasons.
During the spring and summer months (March to August), Seoul is influenced by the
summer monsoon, known as the "Jangma" in Korean. This period is characterized by
relatively high temperatures and humidity. The prevailing winds during this time
generally blow from the south or southeast, bringing warm and moist air from the
ocean. These winds can sometimes be accompanied by heavy rainfall.
In autumn (September to November), Seoul experiences transitional weather as it
moves from the summer monsoon to the winter season. Winds during this time can
be variable, but they often come from the northwest or northeast. The temperature
gradually cools down, and the weather becomes drier compared to the summer
months.
Winter (December to February) in Seoul is cold and dry, with occasional snowfall.
The dominant winds during this season generally blow from the northwest or north,
bringing cold air from Siberia. These winds, known as the "Siberian High," can
contribute to cold temperatures and a dry atmosphere.
