German term or phrase: Untersuchungsraster
Hi,

This terms appears in a report about an investigation of a contaminated site.

In der Zusammensetzung der Bodenluft steigt der LHKW-Gehalt hier jedoch z. T. deutlich über den Prüfwert an und schließt nach Osten, über den Rand des Untersuchungsrasters hinweg, an die Grundwasserverunreinigungen in den Außenpegeln an, die sich in einer geologischen, nach Osten abfallenden Rinnenstruktur > 50 m ausbreiteten.

Thank you.

Regards,

English translation:study grid
Explanation:
I couldn't find examples of "examination grid" used in the context of geology. It seems that "study grid" is typical terminology.

Soils in this association are typically deep, well-drained to excessively-drained sands and sandy loams (20). Poorly drained basin soils are present along the southwestern edge of the study grid. Terrain elevation is 250 to 350 feet above sea level,
increasing along the northeast diagonal. The climate is typically hot and dry in summer with an average yearly rainfall of ten inches.

Low scoring sections in the central and southwestern portions of the study grid indicate areas of lower projected simazine, DBCP and carbofuran application coinciding with higher concentrations of alfalfa, and field and grain acreage. One contaminated well was located in the only high scoring section, but it is impossible to determine whether this is a meaningful occurrence.

Control Study grid close to the already excavated trench in Area C6. These grids were put together into a Super-3D grid which covers the side of the hill sloping down towards the current cultivated fields to the north.

Last year my seventh grade students and I established two long term field studies. We set up an soil erosion study grid on Bureau of Land Management land adjacent to our school as part of the AAW Geologic History curriculum.

The purpose of the Hanford Environmental Dose Reconstruction (HEDR) Project was to estimate radiation doses that individuals may have received as a result of Hanford Site emissions. The Hanford Data Visualization System draws a map of the Northwestern states overlaid with a rectangular study grid of sectors covering a 75,000 square mile area. Air concentration densities and representative dose estimates within the grid are available.
The purpose of the Historical Public Exposure Studies of the Rocky Flats Plant was to evaluate the doses and potential health impacts resulting from contaminant releases.
The Rocky Flats Data Visualization System utilizes atmospheric release and transport data leading to risk estimation to map areas encompassing the plant and overlay them with an 850 square mile study grid of receptor locations spaced one kilometer apart.
