On the other hand, human impact on landscapes in Central Europe may date back to the earliest farmers from the Neolithic Period (c. 5500 a cal BC). At least since the Middle Ages intense land-use produced wide deforested areas. In the sand-rich North German Lowland these human-induced deforestation often resulted in the remobilisation of Late Pleistocene to Early Holocene sand dunes. Especially in the vicinity of former mining sites or glassworks the dune landscapes possess quite young stratigraphic disturbances (fossilized horizons, weak developed top soils). Within the scope of the Transregional Collaborative Research Centre (SFB/TRR) 38, funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), inland dunes in South Brandenburg were used as comparison sites to study structures and processes of the initial ecosystem development phase in an artificial water catchment. Here, we present first results of the pedostratigraphy and the age of two dune systems near Glashuette which is about 50 km south of Berlin. Based on twelve Optical Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) and six radiocarbon (14C) datings a chronology of the landscape development for the last c. 10000 years is derived. Data prove that both dune systems - even though they are just c. 1 km apart and have similar morphological features such as height, width, and orientation - have a completely different history in aeolian sand deposition and pedogenesis. At dune 'Glashuette 1' a well established podsol forms the topsoil. At dune 'Glashuette 2' soil development is clearly in a more initial state showing only some humus accumulation and weaker podsolization processes. OSL and 14C ages of sand from 'Glashuette 1' range between about 11.4 ka cal. BC (3.9 m below surface) and 9.4 ka cal. BC (0.7 m below surface). Against that, the sands in 'Glashuette 2' are mainly dated to about 0.8 ka cal BC (3.4 to 0.7 m below surface). On the basis of our findings further analyses can be planned more accurately to study the impact of initial processes on the later state of ecosystems characteristics.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SproeteFischerVesteetal., author = {Spr{\"o}te, Roland and Fischer, Thomas and Veste, Maik and Lange, Philipp and Bens, Oliver and Raab, Thomas and H{\"u}ttl, Reinhard F.}, title = {Hydrophobicity in sandy soils triggered by the development of Scots Pine stands in southern Brandenburg, Germany}, series = {EGU General Assembly 2010, held in Vienna, Austria, 02 - 07 May 2010}, booktitle = {EGU General Assembly 2010, held in Vienna, Austria, 02 - 07 May 2010}, publisher = {European Geophysical Society}, address = {Katlenburg-Lindau}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SproeteFischerVesteetal., author = {Spr{\"o}te, Roland and Fischer, Thomas and Veste, Maik and Yair, Aaron and Wiehe, Wolfgang and Lange, Philipp and Bens, Oliver and Raab, Thomas and H{\"u}ttl, Reinhard F.}, title = {Structures and processes of biological soil crusts during initial ecosystem genesis of an artificial watershed in Lusatia, NE Germany}, series = {EGU General Assembly 2010, held Vienna, Austria, 02 - 07 May 2010}, booktitle = {EGU General Assembly 2010, held Vienna, Austria, 02 - 07 May 2010}, publisher = {European Geophysical Society}, address = {Katlenburg-Lindau}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SproeteVesteFischeretal., author = {Spr{\"o}te, Roland and Veste, Maik and Fischer, Thomas and Raab, Thomas and Bens, Oliver and H{\"u}ttl, Reinhard F.}, title = {Development of biological soil crusts and their influence on soil hydrology in the recultivation area of lignite open-cast mining district in Lower Lusatia (Germany)}, series = {EGU General Assembly 2012, held 22-27 April, 2012 in Vienna}, booktitle = {EGU General Assembly 2012, held 22-27 April, 2012 in Vienna}, publisher = {European Geophysical Society}, address = {Katlenburg-Lindau}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FischerSproeteVesteetal., author = {Fischer, Thomas and Spr{\"o}te, Roland and Veste, Maik and Wiehe, Wolfgang and Lange, Philipp and Bens, Oliver and Raab, Thomas and H{\"u}ttl, Reinhard F.}, title = {Functions of biological soil crusts on central European inland dunes:Water repellency and pore clogging influence water infiltration}, series = {EGU General Assembly 2010, held in Vienna, Austria, 02 - 07 May 2010}, booktitle = {EGU General Assembly 2010, held in Vienna, Austria, 02 - 07 May 2010}, publisher = {European Geophysical Society}, address = {Katlenburg-Lindau}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SproeteBensFischeretal., author = {Spr{\"o}te, Roland and Bens, Oliver and Fischer, Thomas and Raab, Thomas and H{\"u}ttl, Reinhard F.}, title = {Soil water repellency as a phenomenon of initial soil formation - approaches and first results from the Transregional Collaborative Reserch Centre (SFB/TRR) 38}, series = {EGU General Assembly 2009, held in Vienna, Austria, 19 - 24 April 2009}, booktitle = {EGU General Assembly 2009, held in Vienna, Austria, 19 - 24 April 2009}, publisher = {European Geophysical Society}, address = {Katlenburg-Lindau}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SproeteFischerVesteetal., author = {Spr{\"o}te, Roland and Fischer, Thomas and Veste, Maik and Wiehe, Wolfgang and Lange, Philipp and H{\"u}ttl, Reinhard F.}, title = {Development of top soil on quaternary inland dunes - How important are microorganisms?}, series = {Gletscher, Wasser, Mensch - quart{\"a}rer Landschaftswandel im peribaltischen Raum, 35.
