Soil sensitivity: Soil sensitivity due to substance inputs

On the basis of the evaluation results on the filtration and buffering capacity of soils, statements on the sensitivity to possible (damage) substance inputs can be derived. Soils with levels I to II should generally be classified as sensitive. Soils with levels I to II are filtered from the assessments of the soil component function Compensating medium for material effects and presented as soils with ‘sensitivity to substance input’.
