3. Examples of constructed technosols applied to various contexts
3.1 Green spaces
The majority of studies on the implementation of parks or squares are inspired by natural soils by constructing technosols with one or two distinct horizons. The A horizon (growth horizon) is generally designed to promote germination and initial growth of grasses. Thus, large quantities of organic waste are often used as the dominant ingredients. The B horizon (technical horizon) is generally designed to ensure high stormwater retention and to prevent organic carbon and nitrate leaching (figure
