Archive of Natural History

The soil part function “Archive of Natural History” is based on the criterion of natural historical significance according to Table 1 of the Saxon Soil Assessment Instrument. The archive of natural history includes soils with special characteristics of natural history development. This includes, for example, soils from rare soil substrates (e.g. flying sand) or low, transitional and high bog soils, whose historical development and formation extends to the present time. In addition, natural-historical soils are also highly interesting in the functional importance and of very high protection value. For example, intensively soaked soils or groundwater soils with high humusa accumulation as well as fossil soils, such as black soils, have a high function for biodiversity. The archiving functions of the soils are partial functions of the Federal Soil Protection Act. The assessment does not directly assess the site position and climatic site conditions, although these are relevant for the preservation and endangerment of the archive floors."自然历史档案（Archive of Natural History）"这一土壤子功能，依据萨克森土壤评估工具（Saxon Soil Assessment Instrument）表1所规定的自然历史意义判定标准设立。自然历史档案涵盖具备特殊自然历史发育特征的土壤，此类土壤包括源自稀有土壤基质（飞沙（flying sand））的土壤，以及低位、过渡型与高位沼泽土，这类土壤的历史发育与形成过程可延续至当代。此外，自然历史类土壤在功能重要性层面极具研究价值，且拥有极高的保护价值。例如，强渍水土壤、腐殖质积累量极高的地下水土壤，以及黑土等古土壤，均对生物多样性发挥着关键功能。 土壤的自然历史档案归档功能属于《联邦土壤保护法》（Federal Soil Protection Act）的子职能范畴。尽管立地位置与气候立地条件与这类档案土壤的保存状况及受威胁程度密切相关，但本次评估并未直接对其进行评定。
