The aim of this study is to investigate local variation of six soil pedons with time under different topographic position and land use-cover but over similar geologic material and to determine to generate liner regression models between slope, elevation and physico-chemical soil properties. In this concept, the main subjects in investigated six soil pedons that formed on basaltic parent material and different topographic positions and land use and land cover located in south of Samsun-Bafra highway and Engiz-Dağköy district were determine physical and chemical properties, and were classiffed. According to results which were obtained from both morphological properties in field study and analysis of soil samples in laboratory while soils located on high slope degree of transect were classified in Soil Taxonomy as Lithic Ustorthent, soils formed on almost flat land were classified as Typic Haplustert. In addition, it was created liner regresion models between genetic horizons of pedons
