The Particle Size Fractions Sum refers to the total proportion of sand, silt, and clay particles in soil, expressed as a percentage. It ensures the sum of individual particle size fractions adds up to 100%, a check for accurate soil texture analysis. Particle size distribution impacts water retention, permeability, and soil structure. Source: Hillel, D. (2004). Introduction to Environmental Soil Physics.
