“…Humus of moderately better quality was thus found in the areas with large C tot , S tot and N tot contents. It may be the result of grass cover on the clear-cut immission areas after forest decline (Mládková et al 2004(Mládková et al , 2005. Distribution of the lowest Al KCl values corresponds to the highest pH values (Figure 2).…”

“…It is apparent that in most cases the soils are strongly acid, with low organic matter quality and rather high content of potentially toxic Al forms (Al KCl ), as well as organically bound Al forms (Al CuCl 2 and Al Na 4 P 2 O 7 ). A detailed description and statistical analysis of the datasets were published by Mládková et al (2004Mládková et al ( , 2005. Here we will focus on the spatial distribution of the variables.…”

The aim of this contribution was to describe spatial distribution of soil characteristics of forest floor in the Jizerské Mountains region and to assess the effect of stand factors by means of geostatistics, using structural correlation coefficients. Most soil properties showed a low spatial dependence with variogram range of 6000 m. Kriged maps of spatial distribution of soil properties were created. Most characteristics were influenced by altitude. A general decrease of pH and Ca and Mg content and an increase of potentially toxic Al forms (Al KCl ) due to high S and N loading were demonstrated. An effect of liming on the decrease of Al KCl content, and higher pH and Mg content and lower Al KCl under beech forest were shown. Lower acidity and a be�er humus quality were found at higher altitudes under grass cover (Calamagrostis villosa) in spite of high S and N content. The ratios S/Ca and S/(Ca + Mg) can serve as an indicator of soil acidification level.

Labile Al forms can be dangerous in acid soils due to their potential toxicity to plants. This paper deals with the distribution of exchangeable, weakly organically bound, and total organically bound Al forms in soils on 98 sites of the Jizera Mountains region. For the extraction of these Al forms, 0.5M KCl (Al KCl ), 0.3M CuCl 2 (Al CuCl 2 ), and 0.05M Na 4 P 2 O 7 (Al Na 4 P 2 O 7 ) solutions were used, respectively. Aluminium concentrations in all extracts were determined by means of ICP-OES. Following mean concentrations of Al forms were found in the O and B horizons (mg/kg): Al KCl -1236 and 832, Al CuCl 2 -4268 and 1945, and Al Na 4 P 2 O 7 -5043 and 8420. Basic soil characteristics were determined by commonly used methods. Their influence on Al forms distribution was assessed. Factor analysis showed that the most important soil factors controlling Al forms distribution were soil reaction and the total content of Ca (or Ca and Mg in the B horizon).

Abstract:The aim of this study was to assess the impact of different vegetation on the distribution of rainfall (due to throughfall and stemflow), water regime, and Al and SO 4 2-leaching from forest soils. The water flow and Al and SO 4 2-transport were modeled using HYDRUS-1D. The study was performed at two elevation transects on the Paličník and Smědava Mountain in Jizera mountains. Podzols and Cambisols were prevailing soil units in this area. It was shown that the effect of the precipitation redistribution on water regime was considerable in the beech forest, while it was almost negligible in the spruce forest. Redistribution of precipitation under trees caused runoff (in one case), increased water discharge through the soil profile bottom, reduction of water storage in the soil, and thus reduction of root water uptake. Simulated Al leaching from the soil profile was determined mainly by the initial Al content in the soil profile bottom. Leaching of SO 4 2-was mainly determined by its initial content in the soil and to a lesser extent by redistributed precipitation and SO 4 2-deposition.
