| 9 | Soil interpretation is about the visible structures in the research area. Below a table is shown where the different structures are shortly described. And pictures can be found at the end of this page. | ||

| 14 | |=Type of structure|=Description | ||
| 15 | |Broken-up land| | ||
| 16 | |Brought up, (sub-)recent|Human landscape element. Heterogeneous deposit consisting of natural sediment disturbed by humans and locally reworked. | ||
| 17 | |Buried| | ||
| 18 | |Construction sand|Construction sand means sand that is predominantly produced and used for local construction purposes, such as asphalt or concrete. All existing sand pits containing alluvial sand shall be included within this definition. | ||
| 19 | |Crumbling|A friable or crumbling soil is characterized by the larger clods fragmenting easily and by smaller soil aggregates being harder to break. Particularly fine textured soils can have problems with the soil becoming either too cloddy or too finely fragmented during soil preparation. | ||
| 20 | |Culture layer| | ||
| 21 | |Culture layer, Middle Ages|Human landscape element. Usually bulbous field from the Middle Ages originated on sandy soils by inflicting mixture of sods and manure. | ||
| 22 | |Debris layer| | ||
| 23 | |Ditch filling|Human landscape element. Narrow and shallow dug trench made up of an aquifer for water drainage from the plot to the trench. | ||
| 24 | |Gley horizon|A gley is a wetland soil (hydric soil) that unless drained is saturated with groundwater for long enough to develop a characteristic gleyic color pattern. The pattern is essentially made up of reddish, brownish, or yellowish colors at surfaces of soil particles and/or in the upper soil horizons mixed with greyish/blueish colors inside the peds and/or deeper in the soil | ||
| 25 | |Ground| | ||
| 26 | |Layered vegetation level| | ||
| 27 | |Matured|A soil that has passed through the major developmental phases and become relatively stabilized especially to the point that incorporation of organic material is approximately equal to the withdrawal of soluble material by plants. | ||
| 28 | |Messy| | ||
| 29 | |Moernering|Human landscape element. Irregularly bumpy, terrain created by the extraction of salt peat. The resulting wells were then filled with excavated clay. | ||
| 30 | |Organic matter inwash| | ||
| 31 | |Outwash limit| | ||
| 32 | |Oxidation-reduction threshold| | ||
| 33 | |Pavement|Human landscape element. It involves everything that has to do with the hard surface of a road or street. | ||
| 34 | |Ploughed land| | ||
| 35 | |Podzol| | ||
| 36 | |Raise layer| | ||
| 37 | |Sand with lead| | ||
| 38 | |Soil-covered peat|Human landscape element. Circular depression of two to five meters in diameter where limy clay has been extracted which was used for the improvement of (now gone) peatland. | ||
| 39 | |Source material| | ||
| 40 | |Sward|Natural landscape element. A portion of ground covered with grass. | ||
| 41 | |Terp soil|Human landscape element. A ridge brought up in an area which suffers from flooding, so animals and humans can live safely behind the ridge/hill. | ||
| 42 | |Top chalk free| | ||
| 43 | |Vegetation level| | ||
