Possible NGSS Standards that could be address by the guided inquiry activities (nutrient holding capacity and water holding capacity): 

MS-ESS3-1. Construct a scientific explanation based on evidence for how the uneven distributions of Earth's mineral, energy, and groundwater resources are the result of past and current geoscience processes. http://www.nextgenscience.org/pe/ms-ess3-1-earth-and-human-activity 

HS-ESS2-2. Analyze geoscience data to make the claim that one change to Earth's surface can create feedbacks that cause changes to other Earth systems. http://www.nextgenscience.org/pe/hs-ess2-2-earths-systems

HS-ESS2-5. Plan and conduct an investigation of the properties of water and its effects on Earth materials and surface processes. http://www.nextgenscience.org/pe/hs-ess2-5-earths-systems
