A series of waterlogged archaeological sites in the Netherlands were investigated to examine wood degradation by erosion bacteria. Chemical analyses of soil and water at the sites showed a large variation in burial conditions, reflecting differences in sediment composition, salinity, trophic levels, and past burial conditions. 2, record 1, English, - burial%20condition

Dans certaines conditions d'enfouissement, les objets peuvent rester dans un état de préservation exceptionnel. Les matériaux organiques [...] se préservent mieux dans un lieu d'enfouissement détrempé, très sec, gelé ou à faible concentration d'oxygène. Dans ces conditions, les matériaux sont protégés de l'activité biologique (par exemple, bactéries, moisissures, insectes, animaux). 2, record 1, French, - condition%20d%27enfouissement

Specific test standards are not available to measure burial deterioration of geotextiles (many variables are involved), but work is being reported. Sutton et al. examined samples which were in place for up to 12 years. Both mechanical and hydraulic properties were examined and compared to original properties. Losses were generally nominal with maximum losses of 30%. The National Research Council of Canada is testing the effects of burial on fabrics, thereby recognizing that soil is very variable material. ...
