Soil quality - Field soil description (ISO 25177:2008)

ISO 25177:2008 is a guide for describing the soil and its environmental context at a given site. Sites can be natural, near-natural, urban or industrial. It is important to realize that a number of soil samples can be taken at a site to support the soil description. The information provided by the descriptions in ISO 25177:2008 provides the context for the presentation of results from analyses undertaken on soil samples.

Bodenbeschaffenheit - Bodenbeschreibung im Felde (ISO 25177:2008)

Dieses Dokument dient als Anleitung zur Beschreibung eines Bodens und seiner Umgebung an einem betrachteten Standort. Standorte können natürlich, naturnah, urban oder industriell sein. Es ist wichtig zu berücksichtigen, dass es erforderlich sein kann, eine Anzahl von Bodenproben an einem Standort zu entnehmen, um die Bodenbeschreibung zu unterstützen. Die durch diese Beschreibung erhaltenen Angaben vermitteln den Kontext für die Darstellung der Ergebnisse aus Analysen, die an Bodenproben vorgenommen wurden. ANMERKUNG 1 Nicht unter allen in dieser Anleitung aufgeführten Abschnitten können Daten aufgenommen werden. ANMERKUNG 2 Eine umfassende Anleitung für die Darstellung von Informationen aus Bodenuntersuchungen enthält ISO 15903.
