Flooding with wastewaters over a period of 80 years has led to a fairly strong concentration of nitrogen, phosphorus, copper, and zinc in a sandy Cambisol of glacial origin in comparison with that of a forest soil of the same type. Nevertheless, we registered a loss of iron and manganese. The 2-year examination of the water, redox, and nutrient dynamics showed that hardly any filtering of iron and manganese nutrients is taking place anymore.
