soft-shelled turtles Weichschildkröten
softening (Reduction of the hardness of water by removing hardness-forming ions (chiefly calcium and magnesium) by precipitation or ion exchange, or sequestering them as by combining them with substances such as certain phosphates, that form soluble but non-ionized salts) Enthärtung
softening agent Enthärter
softening agent (1. A substance added to another substance to increase its softness, pliability, or plasticity. 2. A substance, such as a zeolite, for softening water) Enthärter
softening of water Wasserenthaertung

soil (The top layer of the land surface of the earth that is composed of disintegrated rock particles, humus, water and air) Boden
soil (including excavated soil from contaminated sites) stones and dredging spoil Erde und Hafenaushub
soil accumulation Akkumulation im Boden
soil acidification (A naturally occurring process in humid climates that has long been the subject of research, whose findings suggest acid precipitation effects. The generally accepted impact of soil acidification on the productivity of terrestrial plants is summarised as follows: as soil becomes more acidic the basic cations (Ca, Mg) on the soil exchange are replaced by hydrogen ions or solubilized metals. The basic cation, now in solution, can be leached through the soil. As time progresses the soil becomes less fertile and more acidic. Resultant decreases in soil pH cause reduced, less-active population of soil microorganisms, which in turn slow decomposition of plant residues and cycling of essential plant nutrients) Bodenversauerung
soil air (The air and other gases in spaces in the soil; specifically that which is found within the zone of aeration. Also known as soil atmosphere) Bodenluft
soil air withdrawal Bodenluftentnahme
soil amendment Bodenverbesserer
soil analysis Bodenuntersuchung
soil analysis (The use of rapid chemical analyses to determine the fertility status of a soil. It is used to identify those nutrients or substances that are present in either insufficient or excessive quantities for optimum plant growth. Analyses are also used to monitor increases or decreases in soil fertility over time) Bodenuntersuchung
