LUFA Speyer has been cooperating with the Rhineland-Palatinate Research Institute for Forest Ecology and Forestry for more than 40 years and carries out chemical analyses as part of forest environmental monitoring.

The matrices soil, water and plant are analyzed. Sample preparation and analysis is carried out according to the documented methods of the Handbook of Forestry Analysis (HFA).

The following methods are used for water samples:

  • Element determination methods (Al, Ca, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Na, NH4, Cl, , NO3, PO4, S, dissolved organic carbon (DOC), total nitrogen).
  • Determination of heavy metals (As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, Zn)
  • pH value
  • conductivity
  • Alkalinity

The water samples tested are field precipitation, crown drainage, trunk drainage, surface water, humus lysimeter solution or mineral soil lysimeter solution.
