01.12.3 Buffering and Filtering Functions of Soils

Map Description

Loamy soils have a high buffering and filtering function with low water permeability and a high effective cation exchange capacity. These requirements are met primarily by the soils on the Teltow and Barnim boulder marl plateaus. The sandy soils of the glacial valley only have a low ability to filter and buffer pollutants.
