The aim of the study was to assess the impact of long-term drainage on the morphology and selected properties of shallow peatland soils in microrelief. The study was conducted within strongly drained peatland (Długie Mokradło bog) located on elevated plateau in the Central Sudetes. The study area is covered by spruce stands introduced by man. Long-term drainage has changed morphology of study soils...
With this paper we investigate the effect of sand contribution to organic soils and direct influence of this process on the physical and physicochemical properties on the example of transitional bog in the Stołowe Mountains (the Central Sudetes), which was periodically covered by sand material from sandstone cliffs weathering. Field survey and soil sampling were conducted in August 2015 in the area...
At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries large peatland areas of the Stołowe Mountains were drained for the forestry use. The aim of the study was to assess the real impact of the natural (climate) and anthropogenic (forestry drainage) factors on the actual nitrogen mineralization in the shallow organic soils in the Stołowe Mountains National Park (SMNP). For the needs of the study, two research...
The research has aimed to determine the impact of fire on pools of soil organic matter and water retention in pyrogenic soil in meadow and forest areas. The following soil samples have been represented: moorsh, peat-moorsh, mineral moorsh and peat. The soil horizons represented: strongly dried peat-moorsh soil, medium-deep (MtIIc1 and MtIIIc1), mineral moorsh soil (Me11) and moorsh soil. Soil horizons...
This work describes the fractional composition of acid formed humus based on physical-chemical and chemical properties in the Mollic Phaeozems Arenic and Mollic Gleysols Arenic. Sand and sandy loam with a decalcification feature dominates in terms of texture. Reactions of the studied soils range from strong light acid to alkaline. The organic O horizon and humic A horizon are very rich in C total...
This paper describes the fractional composition of humus substances and the physico-chemical and sorptive properties of Mollic Umbrisols Arenic, Mollic Gleysols Arenic and Phaeozems Arenic of the Milicz-Głogów Depression. The following analyses were performed on collected soils samples: granulometric composition, pH in 1mol KCl dm⁻³, hydrolytic acidity (Hh), TOC, Nt, CaCO₃, content of exchangeable...
The aim of the paper was to assess the role of forest litter and mineral soil layers (0-10 and 10-20 cm) as stocks of plant-available macronutrients intheforested zone of the Karkonosze Mountains National Park, an area of forest decline at the end of 20th century. Soil samples were collected in 529 monitoring sites arranged in a 200x300 m grid. Concentrations of plant-available nutrients were much...
Extensive studies in the Sudety Mountains showed large local variations in the distribution of trace elements within organic soils. A negative correlation was observed between Zn and Pb concentrations and depths, while a positive correlation was found between the concentrations of some heavy metals, pH and S content. The high concentration of heavy metals in organic soils often was found in surface...
