Abstract
Soil maps are frequently used to evluate perspectives for nature restoration in scenarios of rural land use planning. Hydrological factors are decisive criteria at the higher levels of the Soil Classification System of the Netherlands. A case study atthe Wildenborch estate showed that traditional soil maps may give information on fossil hydrological conditions. Features of the humus form profiles provide actual information on the base and nutrient statuses of soils, being dependent on the hydrological factor. Humus form profiles must be incorporated in ecological land inventory.
