The study area is located in the North-Eastern part of the Nile Delta, northern of Ismailia canal and western Suez Canal. It comprises an area of about 3,058.8 km2 (728,285.38 feddans). This work aims to identify the main physiographic units and its features, as well as emphasise the importance of combining soil taxonomy (2014) and WRB classification (2022) systems. Two main physiographic units were distinguished in the study area according to the previous studies, interpretation of satellite image and digital elevation model (DEM) as well as field observations; the first consists of fluvio-marine flats and the second river terraces which include the fluvial and deltaic origin. According to field morphological descriptions as well as chemical and physical analyses, representative profiles are classified by using both Soil Taxonomy and WRB systems. The current study is the third manuscript to emphasise the importance of using both systems together in order to obtain maximum possible characteristics of the earth. Below are examples that illustrate this importance. Soils of profile No. 4 which represent the fluvio-marine soils are classified according to soil taxonomy as follows: Typical Haplosalids, fine silty, mixed, thermic. While these soils are classified according to WRB as follows: Fluvic Sodic Solonchaks (Siltic/Loamy/Clayic, Chloridic, Evapocrustic, Ochric, Hypersalic). Soils of gypsiferous which represent soils of profile No. 6 are classified according to Soil Taxonomy as: Gypsic Aquisalids, loamy over sandy, mixed, thermic, whereas the application of the WRB system reveals the following: Fluvic Calcic Gypsic Sodic Gleyic Solonchaks (Loamic, Chloridic, Hypersalic).
