Potentially Humid Soils Potentially humid soils are most likely to be found in channels and meanders Image Quote: Immendorf, R Course Engineering Hydrology | Lecture 2 | Univ. -Prof. Dr. -Ing. Heribert Nacken

Conclusion • • Throughout the recent Sieg floodplain, alluvial loam layers of approx. 4 m, which cover the sands and gravel of the lower terrace, are expected Due to the fluviatile dynamic in the Holocene, archaeological finds and features can be expected in all layers of the alluvial loam Humid Soils Archaeobotanically relevant humid soils are most likely to be found in the area of the meanders and the deep channel structures Tree Trunks Numerous tree trunk finds have been found in the gravel to depths up to approx. 10 m Fossils In addition to tree trunks, fossils are also be expected to be found in the gravel Course Engineering Hydrology | Lecture 2 | Univ. -Prof. Dr. -Ing.
