Soil-Scientific Characteristic Values 2015

This map presents fine soil types in different colours at block and block segment level. Coarse soil types and the proportion of coarse soil contained in the overall soil are presented using different types of hatching. The existing types of peat are represented by symbols. 01.06.1 Soil TexturesMore information

The usable field capacity for shallow-root plants (0 – 30 cm) is presented at block and block segment level. 01.06.2 Usable Field Capacity of Shallow-Root PlantsMore information

The usable field capacity for the effective root area is presented at block and block segment level. 01.06.4 Usable Field Capacity of the Effective Root ZoneMore information

The humus quantity of the soils (in kg/m²) is presented at block and block segment level. 01.06.5 Humus QuantityMore information

The carbon stock of the soils and the derived buffering capacity in the carbon cycle are presented at block and block segment level. 01.06.6 Organic Carbon StockMore information

This map presents the pH values and pH levels ranging from very slightly alkaline to very strongly acidic averaged across the topsoil and subsoil at block and block segment level. 01.06.7 pH Values of TopsoilMore information

The base saturation of the topsoil and the derived nutrient supply are presented at block and block segment level. 01.06.8 Sum of Exchangeable Basic Cations in the Topsoil (S-Value)More information

The mean effective cation exchange capacity of the soils and the derived capacities to store nutrients and bind pollutants are presented at block and block segment level. 01.06.9 Mean Effective Cation Exchange Capacity (KAKeff)More information

The water permeability of the soils (kf value) to a depth of 1 m and the derived filtration capacity are presented at block and block segment level. 01.06.10 Saturated Water Permeability (kf)More information
